In Loving Memory

How much a scar can be re-opened just to be scarred even more deeper. The pain is forever there...

In loving memory of my father Ross "Owen"- November 22, 1996

Blue Wolf couldn't have said it any better. I share the same feelings and thoughts toward my CLOSE loved ones who have passed on.

*bluewolf*

In memory of my Brother---whom I lost 06 Jan 88....even after all these years, I still miss him.....and I still dream about him....in my dreams, I'm always so happy to see him and I ALWAYS ask him the same question....'Where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you!' Only he never says anything to me.....only smiles.

In loving memory of my son, Arthur L. Barrios, who came into this world on September 16, 1980. I consider that one of the happiest days of my life, that and when his sister was born. My worst day is the day he left us. If it weren't for my daughter or my grandchild on the way, I would have joined him.

I know you are watching over me, and hangin with Jeff and Bobby and uncle, but I miss you every day of my life.

In loving memory of Johnny Cash.

as a little girl I was completly in love with this man and his offbeat lyrics. A real entertainer, a great personality and a wonderful voice. Johnny Cash was also part native however I forget which nation. He took some wild risks in the 90's that were uncommon of men his age and of country musicians. I'm really gonna miss having him in this world.

goodnight Johnny.

The hardest thing I have ever had to do was tell our girls that you were gone. I dont understand why this had to happen. I take comfort in the fact that you will always be watching over our daughters and you will live on through them. Everyone misses you so much!!!! You will never be forgotten!

In memory of my Brother---whom I lost 06 Jan 88....even after all these years, I still miss him.....and I still dream about him....in my dreams, I'm always so happy to see him and I ALWAYS ask him the same question....'Where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you!' Only he never says anything to me.....only smiles.

Something I wrote 10 years ago to him, because I still felt the pain......and I still do.......


5 Long Years---A Letter


Bro,

It's been 5 long years now, since you left,
and I still haven't accepted your Death.
Talking about you is so hard to do,
without crying tears of loneliness for you.
A pain arises in my soul so great,
and it takes awhile for the pain to abate.
It's really hard to say your name without being hurt,
but damn it!! Why'd you have to leave me Curt?
The tears that I cry are tears of pain,
cause I know that I'll never see you again,
except in my dreams where it's easy to deal
with the pain that I have 'cause you seem so real.
5 long years and I've finally realized,
the denial that I've kept since the day you died.
Many, many times I've asked myself 'Why?,
why'd it have to be you who had to die?'
As I write this I'm holding back my tears
of pain, denial and frustrations of 5 long years.
I remember the times, of the fun we had,
You and I together, through good times and bad.
We were there together looking out for one another,
Then---in just an instant---I'm without a Brother.
I feel the loss of you 'cause now I'm the only Son,
I'm denied the joy of having a Brother, and envy those who have one.
As my tears fill my eyes, I finally allow myself to cry,
but after 5 long years, it's still hard to say goodbye...

My dad, Ronnie Harris

Just a few lines to acknowledge my dad, Ronnie Harris, Sr.
When he passed away last year, I was too hurt to even see his name, much less mention him on the internet.
But now I see how others are just like me, still missing that special someone in their lives that made them stronger, wiser and probably better than they ever would have been without that person setting the example.
My dad was someone who totally and completely believed in his children, and gave support in all that we did. He introduced us into the arena, and paved a way for us to follow. He was an excellent straight dancer, classic is the word I think of.
I never appreciated his talent for dancing until he could no longer dance, or even walk.
He taught us how to pray, and we were raised in the Native American church. To this day, I still feel his spirit when we take part in a meeting.
To my dad, there is a song called "I believe" by Diamond Rio that will make me cry everytime I hear it. Also, "The wind beneath my wings', was sung at his wake.
On the pow wow side, he has a song and he had given it to the drum years ago. Southern boys have that song down pat. And they sing it,as does Scissortail. Scissortail sang his song at St. Croix this year and made it sound awesome.
So, when you pray for those who still miss thier loved one, think of us. We are moving on, but still looking over our shoulder for that special person that always stood behind us.
Sandy
