*TO CASEY…FROM MOM* Casey, I remember that Sunday night when you were taken from me. I hoped it was somebody else in your truck, oh-please let it be...but, there was no such luck.
I asked, "Are you sure it was Casey?" I wanted to see...but, they wouldn't let me. I didn't want to believe it was you--a child of mine. I wanted to hold you one more time. I needed to know it was you...my baby boy with those eyes so blue.
They all said that could not be my last memory of you. Now, i know what they said was all so true.
Somewhere in the distance i heard Toni screaming. But it all seemed like i was dreaming. She kept saying "No, no, not Casey-he's my life." We all knew that one day she'd be his wife.
A part of all of us died that night. We need to know that you are alright. As you went towards the light and step- ped on Heavens ground...like Tiny said, "I bet Heather was there to show him around."
I wonder what Lil Joeys been up too. I'm sure he and Dougie are finding things for the three of you to do.
And please tell Jason that his moma- my cousin Vickie isn't doing very well. She says missing him everyday is like living in Hell.
I cry so many tears...I only had 16 and a half years. Oh, how i would love to see you all grown with children of your own.
Cheyce has been hitting homeruns like crazy.....now Casey Wayne isn't that amaz- ing?
And Jostan Lee is doing good in Base- ball play-ing First Base. You should see your little sister Kassidy kissing those baby kitties in the face.
Your big brother BJ is excited about his first baby, his girlfriend Kara seems like a sweet lady.
And Jessica's having baby #4...oh boy, when it gets here her house will seem like a war.
I'm glad your oldest sister Misty got close to you those last few years. I think it's time us girls went out and had a few beers.
I love you with all of my heart Casey Wayne...I need your Spirit to come to me and take away the pain. There's a painful emptiness inside of me, and only you can set this pain free.
Why, why was it you? My only baby with those eyes so blue. Why, why did you have to go? I guess maybe one day i'll know.
Casey, you will forever be in my heart. Love Always, Mom |
