2nd anniverary  / Mom

Today is the day our world was changed completely. Today is the day you were taken from us so suddenly and tragically. Life isnt the same now without you in it. 

I miss you so much. It is still hard to believe this has actually happened.  I dont understand it anymore today then i did 2 years ago.  I know you arent suppose to question God.... but i dont understand why he would take someone who was so full of life and was getting ready any day to bring another life into this world.  I think of how big Lizzie would be and how much trouble her and Kaiya could get into.

You were  part of the sunshine of our lives.  You were so well loved and had so many friends.  I didnt realize how much you were loved until you were gone. 

I wish I could go back in time and tell you please dont get in that car.  But that was God's plan.  I am thankful I had you for 31 years and 8 months.  

You are my heart, my soul, my joy, my love.  And everything I ever wanted my daughter to be.  You made me so proud to be your mom.

Not a day goes by that you arent thought of and missed so very much. I would give anything if i could just hug you one more time and tell you how much I love you.

But I also know you wouldnt want us to be so sad and miss you so terribly much like we do.. I know you are watching after us. And looking down from heaven at us.

I know i will see you again one day. You remain in our hearts forever

Love always and forever

Last GIRLS NITE OUT  / Carla (friend)

If I had known that was going to be our last girls nite out together, I would have wanted it to go on forever......We talked and ate and cut up just like we did in high school.  the ride home was just as funny..the cake falling over, my hair gettin stuck in the seat belt....we laughed so hard we cried. I remember how cold we were standing there talking to each other and we kept saying it was cold and time to go, but we still talked and laughed.  We hugged each other before we left and went on our ways.  We saw each other one last time at the baby shower for you and Lizzie......it was a beautiful day and you looked so happy!  When I left that day, I told you to let me know when you had the baby.  Instead, I got the terrible call from your mom saying you had been in a wreck.

I couldn't believe it....it hurt so so much.  Instead of you giving birth to Lizzie, you were taken by death.  It seems so unfair.......we all miss you so much. Somedays, I think I see you go by in a car or in a store......then I remember its not you.  I don't think the hurt of losing a friend will ever leave me......

I remember all the nites we stayed together....your house or mine.....always finding something to get into....finding that phone that year for christmas......all the NEW KIDS we could stand.... its all precious memories to me now.  I think of you often and wonder if you know how much I miss you. 

You are one of the four "GOLDEN GIRLS" and one day WE will be together again!  Friends Forever!!

1st anniversary  / Mom (family)

Time has passed by so quickly






It's hard to believe its been a year






Since you were taken so suddenly from us.






Not a day goes by that we don't think of you






And miss your laughter and smile






God has you  & Lizzie in His keeing






We have you in our hearts.






Death leaves a heartache






That won't ever completely heal






But your love is a precious memory






No one can steal






You are in our hearts






Till God calls us home together






And we see each other again






You remain in our thoughts and hearts






We will love you forever






Love always,  Mom, Dad, Ricky, Toni, Shannon, Kaiya, Izabelle and Mama






                            In loving memory

dream / Toni Pelkey (sister)
It's been a little over 5 months now since Christy went to be with God.  Everyday I wake up and try to shake this bad dream away, it has to be a bad dream.  My big sister who wasn't afraid of anything couldn't be gone.  It isn't right.   I've tried and tried to get God to answer me why He had to take her but no answer back yet.  It just doesn't seem real.  I don't know if I'll get accept the fact that she's gone, I'd rather believe that she's gone to Cali to visit our cousins or she off doing something wild and crazy, her style. 
I hate to think of my daughters growing up in a world with no Aunt Christy.  I mean Christy was in the room with us when Kaiya was born.  And now to think that she's not going to witness anything else with us again is unbearable.  Deep down I know that no matter where we go in life she is always watching down on us but it's still hard to swallow the hard truth.  
It's weird.  Now that Christy's gone I find myself doing things that she use to do all the time.  Burping, yes burping, Christy could've been the burping queen.  After every meal she would just burp and burp, especially if she ate onions.  And her dreams, she had the weirdest dreams I have ever heard in my life.  Before Christy went home to God, I never rememebered any of my dreams but now every morning it seems that I can tell you with exact detail what happen in my dreams.  And they're weird too like Christy's dreams were. 
There really isn't any point in these paragraphs, I just to talk about her because when I talk about her she really isn't gone.
My predious niece  / Kay Terry (aunt)

       My precious niece

If tears could build a stairway,
And memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven 
To bring you home again.

No farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why

My heart still aches in saddness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.

I wish I could hold you close and 
Say I love you just one more time.

This rose bud is in memory of little Lizzie
She was Christy's little rose bud
that never got to fully bloom into a beautiful
rose just like her mother.

Christy / Libby (Mom)

Though her smile is gone forever
and the hand I cannot touch  
Of the one I love so much
Her memory is my keepsake
with which I'll never part 
God has her in His keeping, 
We have her in our hearts

You meant so much to us all
You were so special
You brightened the darkest of days with your smile 

Your smile alone warmed my heart
Your laughter was music to our souls
I would give anything 
To have you with us

Not a second passes 
That you arent on our minds
Your love we will never forget
We will miss you till the end of time
 
We will love you till the end on time
Death leaves a heartache,
No one can heal
But love leaves a memory no one can steal

You are in our heart
Our souls are together
Until God calls us Home together
And we get to see each other again.
You will remain in our thoughts and hearts forever
We love you always.

Our friendship  / Sara Guenther (friend)
I met Christy sometime between 1998-1999. She become a very good friend of mine. She was a person I could trust and depend on for anything. She always had a smile and a laugh I will never forget. ( I can still hear that distinct laugh today) She was always up for anything, very outgoing and adventurous. I used to be so afraid of heights but somehow Christy convinced me to go bungee jumping with her. She could always bring out the daring side of me that I don't tend to have a lot of.

 I remember her telling me she was going to spend the summer (2003) in California. We talked about it and she asked me about coming out to visit during spring break for school. I got my plane ticket and I was so scared to fly that far alone but I am so thankful I did. We had the best time. We rented a car a drove, drove, drove. Well, Christy drove I was afraid to drive with all the crazy people on the roads out there. People would just lay on the horn and all sorts of crazy things. But Christy was not afraid of anything. We visited so many places and saw so many things while I was there. Every night before we went to sleep we would decide what was on the agenda for the next day. I have so many great memories of our California trip. We had decided that we were going to go back sometime and do it all over again. I hate that we never got that opportunity. There is not anyone I would rather make that trip with again other than her. I'm not sure anyone else would be able to hold up to my expectations after all of the excitement last time. 

I was also very lucky to have her as a bridesmaid in my wedding. I remember asking her if she would be in the wedding and she told me "of course." I was so excited to be able to share such an important day of my life with her. There are a few of my friends my husband (Joe) doesn't really care for ( because they are to wild or whatever) but not Christy. He really liked her everytime I would be on the phone with her they would just joke and cut up.

I plan to put together a memory book of our friendship. So that oneday when I have children I will be able to share all of our memories and tell them about what a wonderful friendship we shared. 

I miss Christy so much and still think about her everyday. I am so thankful for all of the time we shared and wonderful memories we made. She was taken from a lot of people who loved her dearly, but she will never be forgotten by all the peoples lives she touched.



Words of love  / Nancye Hughes (Cousin of Gene and Libby )

When tomorrow starts without me
  and I'm not there to see
if the sun should rise to find your eyes
  all filled with tears for me
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
  the way you did today
while thinking of the many things
  you didn't get to say
I know how much you love me
  as much as I love you
and each time that you think of me
  I know I'll miss you too
But when tomorrow starts without me
  please try to understand
that an angel came and called my name
  and took me by the hand
  He said my place is ready
    in Heaven far above
and that I'd have to leave behind
   all those I dearly love
so when tomorrow starts without me
don't think we're far apart
   for every time you think of me
I'm right here in your heart.

Hope this eases the loss just a little!!! 

left unsaid  / Katrina Wilson (friend)
Four months ago we lost a loved one. A friend that I adored with my whole heart. Someone who amazed me everyday. Someone I refuse to let go of. A beautiful soul with this amazing smile.

She was indeed an amazing person and one of the greatest friends I could have ever imagined being blessed with. Nobody else has calmed my tears quite like she did. I worked with this awesome girl for some time and hate having to be there without her now. And an apology goes to her parents for me cowardly hiding in the restroom when they come into the store. I just hide in the back and cry. And I’m sorry. It hurts to know they’re hurting and I don’t know what to do to make it better. Or I would.

Just days before the accident she made me proud by telling me that she would let that daughter of hers call me aunt Kat. At first I didn’t believe her but she reassured me that I would. (Note: that she had a whole family at Food Lion). She made me want to come to work when she was there. I looked through the schedules and noted the days that I got to work with her. Because I knew for sure that she would be the one to hear me complain for hours about something. (usually about “my Daniel”). The first time my car broke down she was the one who stayed on the phone with me until I stopped crying and sent me some help. And she has on numerous occasions wiped away my tears. We cracked jokes on each other all the time. And of course made jokes about everyone else. Not cruel jokes. That Thursday I made her laugh harder than I have ever made her laugh. I kept slightly nudging that belly of hers and telling her we had to quiet down. For we were making jokes of our manager standing no more than five feet in front of us. But she kept laughing and so did I. She wrote down the directions to the baby shower. Came through my line at work and told me, “bye, aunt Kat. See you Saturday.” When she walked out of those doors I never imagined that I had just watched her leave for the last time. To go back to that day. I would have hugged her longer and told her I loved her again and again. And told her exactly what she meant to me. And say thank you.

And just the other day while at work someone came through my line and handed me a rain check signed by Christy herself. I just got teary eyed and showed my bagger when they asked if I was okay. To this day I know I’m not alone with those of us who love her. I know this isn’t goodbye. It’s just another, “see you Saturday.” Except this Saturday isn’t soon enough. I miss you.

Walk it out…
Love Always,
Katrina Wilson (Aunt Kat)
what an influence  / Amber Crump (friend/coworker)
Christy you probably never knew how much you influenced my life each and everyday that I saw you.  I never saw you mad or angry at work no matter if a customer came up to you and was rude, you always brushed it off and went about your day. I always wished that i could have to same personalty as you.  You were friendly to everyone and there was always a smile on your face.  When you first found out that you were pregnant i will never forget how excited you were.  We would always look at the baby names books when we were at work.  We would always laugh at the stupid names that were in that book.  Now that you are gone everyday that goes by I miss you more and more.  I go into work and all the time I turn around hoping to talk to you and rub that belly, but then realty hits and your not there anymore. I love you Christy and I will never forget you.  And now all that I can say is "Walk It Out"!!! 
My friend  / Linda Alverson (friend/co-worker)
Christy is sooooo beautiful!!  I miss her with my whole heart. Anytime I go to work...I always think about her! She always made me smile just by her smile.  She was a great person and there is not a day that goes by that I dont think about her.  I miss you always christy!
To the best cousin ever!!  / Christie (Hughes) Kennedy (The Best Of Cousins )

Christy & I were very close cousins.  I remember when we spent the summer together at her house when we were teens.  She was a very special person in my life.  I miss her so much, it just hurts alot because I never got to say goodbye.  I know I will see her in heaven and she is watching over my family.  I love you Christy and take care of Lizzie.  Hugs & Kisses!!
