Are there birthdays in Heaven?

Are there birthdays in Heaven?


In loving memory of Carolee born Nov 14, 1949

Dear Aunt Carolee, We are still missing u just as bad.

Looking forward to seeing you on the other side...



Birthdays In Heaven

Are there birthdays in Heaven?
Does the angel blow his horn?
Announcing to everybody
That this is the day you were born?

Can the stars be your balloons
And angel food your cake?
Presents wrapped in moonbeams
All the angels helped to make.

Birthdays meant so much to you
They were always a big deal
Birthday presents, lots of friends
And perhaps a special meal.

So I'll whisper a little prayer today
Asking everyone up above
To sing you a Happy Birthday song
And give you all my love.

R.I.P Stephany

Dec 23, 1976 - Nov 13, 2007

To anyone reading this please stop and pray for Steph's surviving 6 year old son, brother, parents, family and friends. The first year anniversary of a loved one's death is especially difficult Thank you!


This was in Steph's obituary, put in by her mother:

When you're blessed with a child
You're sent a package of hope
As the days pass by they both grow
The lord watches over as they go
When the water gets deep
And the waves too high
Great spirits step in and open the sky
Forever ours
We Love You Steph!




One of Steph's favorite songs was by Howard Jones
NO ONE IS TO BLAME 1986

I miss you baby girl!!

Memories of Steph

Thursday, November 06, 2008


Soon it will be a year since my cousin Steph died, it's still hard to comprehend that she is truly gone! Since fall started there have been so many memories which have flooded my mind.

To a young woman who will forever be 30 years old, and who will always be my baby cousin when I remember her.

When I think of Steph I remember...


Monchichi's.

Cabbage Patch kids.

Catching frogs.

Lightning bugs.

Hamsters.

Walking barefoot.

The church bell.

Alice.

Dancing.

Trips to Taco Bell.

Finding kids at the airport.

Car rides with the sunroof open.

Corn fields and country roads.

Cool fall days.

Contact lenses.

Goodnight tree.


But most of all I remember one of the most beautiful smiles the world has ever seen. You will never be forgotten.

I've been missing you!! Forever in my heart. Love, J
