Scott,

I know its been a while, but I wanted to stop and say hey. There isnt a day that goes by where I dont stop for a moment and remember how much fun we used to have. Travis is getting really big, and the paybacks have started. He is just as stubborn as I am...The girls are in AC, I guess Trish taught mama how to gamble...That may or may not be good. Ill stop back in a few days....People often say the more things change, the more they stay the same. I disagree. I miss you brother...Take care.

Hi #2 son

It is always good to hear from you. I just want to thank you for having the boys with you and looking out for them and also to thank the three of you for looking out for Dustin and keeping him safe. It will be so good to see him when he gets home. Thank you again for always being there for him when he was out of the country. I know it meant a lot to him to know you were always around.

Love and miss you a lot.

Hi Hon. Just wanted to say thank you, thank you, thank you!! It was soooooooooo wonderful to hear from you!! Any doubt I ever had about you not knowing the way I feel or second guessing anything I do or have ever done (thanks to some naysayers), were finally put to rest!! I always knew in my heart that you knew/know exactly how I feel. It was just nice to have the affirmation. I love you always and forever!

Love forever,

Trish

Hey Scotty,
It's been a while I know, but I know that you're ok!
You wouldn't believe what's been going on lately!!!!
I wish it was good , but not really.
I still pray for you and the family not often, but every single day! Just want to let you know that you and your family are not forgotten!
D!

Hey,

I've been having really strange dreams. Only you will understand when I say that I don't like these dreams....
The waking up at 3am stopped along time ago when I asked why. so I am asking again...why???
I like good dreams,not haunting ones....
But again, it is you I am talking to. You probably love it....

I have to say that you are sooooo missed by your family. I don't think people really understand what really happens to a family even after 2 years....Families want to move on but are afraid of what others will say...
It just sucks that you are not here....I don't even know what else to say about it.

Scott, Sending Love Back
Trish, LOVE YOU, MEAN IT.......Lisa

Hi #2 son

Sorry it has been a while since I was here. I want to thank you for always keeping a watch over Dustin and being there with him while he is out of the country. I know it really means a lot to him and especially to us that you and his other two angels are keeping him safe.

The boys are getting so big and it is such a shame that you can't be here for them, they are growing up so fast. You would be so proud of them and of all their accomplishments. Trish is doing such a wonderful job and I know that it is not easy, but I am sure you are giving her the strength to get through every day.

The other day the song "Mrs. Jones" was on the radio and thank god I was by myself. It brought back so many good memories. I could just picture every time you sang that song and the joy you always got singing it, (don't know if you remembered every time, but we sure do.)

We thing of you so often, you're on our minds each day
It's been almost three years since death took you away
We catch ourselves throughout the day wanting to call you on the phone(I sure do miss those calls)
When we remember you are gone,we feel so empty and alone
We miss your touch, your warm embrace,your big brown eyes, your loud voice, and your smiling face
And when our loss is hard to bear,
You give us strength, we know you're there
You really were quite special, so strong and very brave
You held nothing back from anyone, you loved with your heart and soul
You were always ther to turn to and you made our family whole
We know that your in heaven and we will see you again
But for now we say good-bye, to a wonderful father, husband and everyone's friend
So until we meet again some day
In our hearts you will forever stay.

We love and miss you

Hi Scotty,

Thinking of you today. This past week has been a little rough for me..I know it is just a hiccup, and there is a much bigger picture to look at. Its just hard to see that now. Is it too much to ask for a little sunshine? I am so tired of the dark cloud that seems to hang over me.

We miss ya Scott...oh and by the way, Matt has crossed over to old man beer. Your favorite! lol

Scott, Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I miss you so much. Still haven't figured out a way to enjoy special events without you around. There is just that huge void without you being present. I was over at your house the other day. I just can't help but get a strange feeling everytime I am there. Trish has the place looking beautiful. I think she has done a great job of keeping your memory alive in that home. It is hard for me to walk into that house without getting all choked up. Hopefully it will get easier the more time that goes by.

Love you and miss you more everyday.

My heart goes out to Josh and Jared. They're good kids and they need you. Trish is doing a good job but the reality is that she can never be their dad.

Well, yesterday our "baby" turned 15. I can't believe it!! It is truly amazing how time flies!! He had a good day. He kept reminding me how in 1 year he will be driving!! (God, I can certainly wait for that!!) I, on the other hand, was a different story. All I kept thinking about was how you are not here to see another birthday and how that just sucks!! I also thought about all the years you were here for, and that hopefully he will never forget them. I couldn't also help but remember and think of how you almost missed him being born and the look on your face when you walked in the door and he was crowning (I'm just going to go home and change)!!! Awww - those dark eyes of yours!!

I saw Josh's post the other day. God, it just breaks my heart!! I sat and cried! I feel so darn bad for them! I just can't imagine. I know what I feel like and go through. I can't even begin to fathom what it is like for them! I'm so glad he remembers things. I worry so much that he won't because he is so young. I will forever remind them, remember, and talk about you!

We love you and miss you terribly!! Please continue to watch over us until we meet again!!

Love forever,

Trish

Scotty,
Just wanted to stop by and say hello. It has been a while but I also wanted to thank you for stopping by last night again. I just saw Josh's post and that breaks my heart that he has to go through life without his dad and same with Jared. You should be proud of the young men they are turning out to be. We all see so much of you in them.... well I'll talk to you later Bro!

Trish,

I hope 2009 and every year from now on is full of blessings, happiness, and love for you and your boys. You deserve it. What happened to Scott was a terrible thing but you're right, your life shouldn't end because of it. It makes me sad to think you have been dealing with such judgment from people who have no right to judge. They don't walk in your shoes. They should count their blessings that they don't have to. You have stood strong and graceful in the face of all of this and I want you to know that I respect you for that. Scott would have expected you to go on with your life. He was too much of a live in the moment kind of guy. He was all about being happy and taking every opportunity to try something new and laugh like hell. You're right, those who really know you and who really knew him would understand the decisions you have had to make. It doesn't mean you love him less. It means you have finally reached the point where you are ready to take a bend in your road. You won't forget what you had before. It will always shine bright in your heart and in your children. Good luck with whatever your future has in store for you.

Scott,

I'm pretty sure I never got the chance to thank you for being involved in some of the events for Michael. I do remember that you were the one I threw the first pitch to at the softball game and I just want to say "thanks". I'm sorry you had to join him. It makes me sad for you (even though I know you're in a better place) and for your family.

Keep smiling down on your friends and family.

trish, you do not know me but i was good friends with mike wise. when he was killed i got a sick feeling when i heard it. the night scott was killed i was working and heard it. i can only imagine how you must feel. i just read your reflection to scott and all i can respond back with is to those who judge you the hell with them. like you said scott will not be forgotten no matter what changes you make or have to make. just keep doing what you are doing and scott will live on with you and through your boys. you have my support 100 percent. and hopefully the scum who took scott from you will never see the light of day again. bob
