My husband and I’s hearts go out to Bobby Lyn’s passing...I cannot even think of the pain that Teresa has had to endure...I pray that I never get to find out what it’s like to lose a Child...She’s gone thru that pain twice...But I will add this that she has to feel some peace in knowing that Bobbie Lyn was a child of God, and is in His loving arms right now...God be with you Terry...Love always....Maggie & Charles..😇😘💜
This I want to say for her two oldest boys, Malachi and Marcus, of whom she was so proud of. She just gleamed over them. She loved them dearly, as they both know. They don’t have or cannot find the right words to say, for having to lose their Mother so young and unexpected. It’s a heavy burden of grief, that I know they have no words for. Or just can’t find them now. They have both shed many tears, but we’re trying to hold them back. Like young men always do. They hold things in. But they dearly loved their mom, and I know they are going to miss her a lot more, as time moves forward.
This is for my darling baby girl, her name was BobbiLynn , she never liked that name. So some you know her as Candela, but she was my first girl, of three daughters. One of whom, before her, has already left us in 2008. I was never able to have a service for her because we were never certain of her death, she just vanished. I have grieved her for years now, as did Lynn and the rest of her family. It has been extremely difficult to get through. However I have never experienced the amount of pain and sorrow that came at me just like a brick wall, like I felt the night the doctor came into the room and said those words that no mother can hardly bare bare to hear. He sat down and said “we did our best, but we weren’t able to save her”. Those words were the worst pain I think I have ever felt in my life. I have missed her smile, and every little part of who she was, ever since that night. If I wasn’t so sure that we will all be together again soon, I would not be able to go forward in life. This is the gift God has given all of us as believers in Christ. That so very soon now, the lord is coming for us all. I will meet her in the air with the Lord, and all my loved ones that have left already for heavens home. Soon to be ours as well. This is how I get through. This is how BobbiLynn believed and how she wants all of her children to grow up with the knowledge of the Lord in there lives. To get ready for that meeting in the sky.
Bobbi Lynn, was a beautiful, smart, and loving daughter. She tried so hard to stand on her own two feet, she never wanted to be a burden on me. She didn’t want me to die. She didn’t want to lose me. She knew it was hard for me. As I was still dealing with the loss of Kyla. She said in the hospital when I went to see her, mom I really miss Kyla. That scared me, and I told her not to say things like that while you’re so sick.
She has fought the good fight, as good as you can have fought for leaving life here, at such a young age. She kept her faith. So she will have a crown laid up for her in heaven. Shes had so many tragedies in her own life that shes endured. She always kept going, until she couldn’t go no more. So her life was not an easy one. However in spite of it all she loved all of us who are here together now in this church to to say their last goodbyes to her.
I want to say to her how much she will be missed by me personally, Plus I know how much she will be missed by all of you that love her.
I have asked my Heavenly Father why she had to go so young. Well he didn’t answer. But I know what he tells us in his word that she has the joy, and the love in heaven that surpasses all our understanding, it’s far superior than we can feel down here on this earth. So I am not going to say goodbye to her, I going to say I love you so much, and I will miss you terribly, but I will see you again soon. So until then, Love Mommy💔
I’m going to miss you Porter. 24 years of friendship and countless memories that I am so blessed to have. I’ll be looking for you in the brightest stars until we meet again- Smith
Do not stand at my grave and weep'
(Mary Elizabeth Frye)
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die
