Missig you  / Sue Bridges (Aunt)
You can shed tears that he is gone,
or you can smile because he has lived.
You can close your eyes and pray he will come
back, or you can open your eyes and see all
he's left.
Your heart can be empty because you can't see
him, or you can be full of the love you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and relive
yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow
because of yesterday.
You can remember him only that he is gone,
or you can cherish the memory and live on.
You can close your mind, be empty and turn your
back or you can do what he'd want, smile, open
your eyes, love and go on.

Missing You  / Heather (Cousin)

Bryon,

We still talk about you all the time and so many people not just family wish we could still have you with us. We keep your memory with us everyday. Everyone has your picture hanging somewhere, out of all the ones I have my favorite is you, Jacob & michelle sitting on the benches at Chaneysville soccer feild with all 3 of you's wearing your chaneysville unifroms. I just found that picture not to long ago, I had forgot we ever took one of those, but it's the best! It sadens me sometimes that Jaidyn never got to meet you as the other 3 but I am sure as she gets older everyone will be filling her in on all your goofy stunts and your silly attitude you had. We were talking at Jazlyn's birthday party about the year we had all that ice and you along with Andy, Jacob, Jason and some others were outside sliding down the hill while we all watched through the window. I think just about everytime you were around we could tell a story about something you did. We all will love you forever and forever be in our hearts and thoughts. After 3 years you still are here with us just as strong as the day you left. Sometimes I think how great it would be just to have a knock on my door for a drink or food (bacon bits:)...) just to see your face. But someday we all will get to see your face again and we know you'll be there just as happy as can be to great us. We love you!!!!!

Love: The Logue Family

Thinking Of You  / Janeane Bricker (none)

I honestly believe that God brought me to your site because I was on someone esles site and saw where  Bryons Aunt had wrote about him. Did he also die from an atv accident? I lost my only 9yr old son  Brandon in an atv accident in July of 06. It's such a hard road for us left behind, just to try to deal with day to day life without them. I know the pain that you feel and I am so sorry that this was either of our fates.

I miss you...  / Larissa Cessna (friend)
Needing you with me
sadness trickles down my cheeks
I know soon
but never close enough

An air of depression hovers
when alone in the night
Strange how this cloud lifts
when i am just sitting with you

We talk by candlelight
and wake to mornings of coffee
a smile,many kisses
i miss you

Every moment etched in my memory
takes me to you
but i can't touch you
oh i want to touch that face

Those blue eyes sharing expressions
how you are so serious
that you laugh at yourself
and i laugh with you

This is how i feel at this very minute
I miss him
even though it wont be long
for me the tears say not soon enough Close

Thinkin' of You  / Terri (Sister)
Even after 2 long years it's still difficult to grasp the fact that you've moved on. I think about you all the time and pray for the day I get to hear your voice again.. we all do. It's difficult to not be angry sometimes at the fact that we had such little time together- 17 years is not nearly enough. But when I'm angry I remind myself of your free spirit and the way you made me laugh so effortlessly and I remember that this is not the end.. just a pause because God will bring us back together. Keep watching over us, keep us smiling. I love you Close

Loving and Missing you EVERYDAY!!  / Regina Bridges (Aunt)

Bryon,

  Just wanted to let you know, and I am sure that you already do,
that there isnt one day that goes by that I dont miss you, think of you, beep the horn for you, or talk about you. Everyone has been
missing you more than ever lately. I mean everyone. It seems that every conversation that I have, you are mentioned. I dont know why or understand why God called you to heaven so soon, but I know that you are probably driving him crazy....in a good way. lol.
Continue to watch over us and keep the all your cousins safe. Bryon, nothing is the same without you. Absolutely nothing. I know that we will all be together someday, t hat is my wish for all of us.
You are in my heart and I love you more than ever. 

Watch over my girls!!!(They miss you like crazy, tears are shed all 
the time, I tell Chelle you wouldnt want that, but its really hard for 
her, I swear, if she could climb to heaven to get you, she would)

Wish you were here, and Happy Birthday, (one day early)
I love you,
Regina

i miss you.  / Larissa Cessna (friend)
I've been thinking about you alot lately. I'm not sure why. Me and Chelle talk about you every morning on the way to school. So many things remind me of you. Like the one day i rode the bus i thought of you the whole time. We have a "short bus" now. You would so make fun of that and probably love it. haha. I keep thinking about all the fun awesome times we had on the bus. You made me so happy. Everytime you saw that i was sad or mad you would always come up to my seat and give me a huge hug and tell me to sit with you because it would make me happy. And i don't know if i told you this yet but you know how you thought my mom hated you well she cried too. It just feels like your still here. I hope your having fun up there. Even when Courtney rode the bus you still looked at me through the corner of your eye. I loved that. I loved everything about you. Even in like 6th grade when i liked the backstreet boys and you made fun of me. I've had a major crush on you ever since then. Kinda stupid i know. Liking you when you made fun of me. haha. But then i kinda got to know you that last 2 years, and you are so sweet and loving, and of course hilarious. Have fun hunny.

I love and miss you so much.

Love always and forever,
Larissa Close

Take care of Lance in Heaven Bryon  / Aunt Sue (Aunt)
She jumped up as soon as she saw the surgeon

come out of the operating room. She said: "How is

my little boy? Is he going to be all right? When can

I see him?"

The surgeon said, "I'm sorry. We did all we could,

but your boy didn't make it."

Sally said, "Why do little children get cancer?

Doesn't God care any more? Where were you,

God, when my son needed you?"

The surgeon asked, "Would you like some time

alone with your son? One of the nurses will be out

in a few minutes, before he's transported to the

university."

Sally asked the nurse to stay with her while she

said good-bye to son. She ran her fingers lovingly

through his thick red curly hair.

"Would you like a lock of his hair?" the nurse

asked.

Sally nodded yes. The nurse cut a lock of the

boy's hair, put it in a plastic bag and handed it to

Sally. The mother said, "It was Jimmy's idea to

donate his body to the University for Study. He

said it might help somebody else. "I said no at

first, but Jimmy said, 'Mom, I won't be using it after

I die. Maybe it will help some other little boy spend

one more day with his Mom." She went on, "My

Jimmy had a heart of gold. Always thinking of

someone else. Always wanting to help others if he

could."

Sally walked out of Children's mercy Hospital for

the last time, after spending most of the last six

months there. She put the bag with Jimmy's

belongings on the seat beside her in the car. The

drive home was difficult. It was even harder to

enter the empty house. She carried Jimmy's belongings,

and the plastic bag with the lock of his hair to her

son's room. She started placing the model cars

and other personal things back in his room exactly

where he had always kept them. She laid down

across his bed and, hugging his pillow, cried

herself to sleep.

It was around midnight when Sally awoke. Laying

beside her on the bed was a folded letter. The letter said:

"Dear Mom, I know you're going to miss me; but

don't think that I will ever forget you, or stop

loving you, just 'cause I'm not around to say I LOVE

YOU. I will always love you, Mom, even more with

each day. Someday we will see each other again.

Until then, if you want to adopt a little boy so you

won't be so lonely, that's okay with me. He can

have my room and old stuff to play with. But, if you

decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't

like the same things us boys do. You'll have to buy

her dolls and stuff girls like, you know. Don't be

sad thinking about me. This really is a neat place.

Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got

here and showed me around some, but it will take

a long time to see everything. The angels are so

cool. I love to watch them fly. And, you know

what? Jesus doesn't look like any of his pictures.

Yet, when I saw Him, I knew it was Him. Jesus

himself took me to see GOD! And guess what,

Mom? I got to sit on God's knee and talk to Him,

like I was somebody important. That's when I told

Him that I wanted to write you a letter, to tell you

good-bye and everything. But I already knew that

wasn't allowed. Well, you know what Mom? God

handed me some paper and His own personal pen

to write you this letter. I think Gabriel is the name

of the angel who is going to drop this letter off to

you. God said for me to give you the answer to

one of the questions you asked Him 'Where was He

when I needed him?' "God said He was in the

same place with me, as when His son Jesus was

on the cross. He was right there, as He always is

with all His children.

Oh, by the way, Mom, no one else can see what

I've written except you. To everyone else this is

just a blank piece of paper. Isn't that cool? I have

to give God His pen back now. He needs it to write

some more names in the Book of Life. Tonight I

get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm,

sure the food will be great.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I don't hurt anymore.

The cancer is all gone. I'm glad because I couldn't

stand that pain anymore and God couldn't stand to

see me hurt so much, either. That's when He sent

The Angel of Mercy to come get me. The Angel

said I was a Special Delivery! How about that?

Signed with Love from God, Jesus & Me.

(Let's see Satan stop this one.) Take 60-seconds

and repost this, within the hour, you will have

caused a multitude of believers to pray to God for

each other. Then sit back and feel the Holy Spirit

work in your life for doing what you know God

loves

"When you're down to nothing, God is up to

something." Close

GOD'S PLAN  / Sue Bridges (aunt)

In the bulb there is a flower;
In the seed, an apple tree;
In cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free! 
In the cold and snow of winter
there's a spring that waits to be,
Unrevealed until its season,
Something God alone can see.

There's a song in every silence,
seeking word and melody;
There's a dawn in every darkness,
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
Unrevealed until its season,
Something God alone can see.

In our end is our beginning; 
in our time, infinity;
In our doubt there is believing; 
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection; 
at the last, a victory,
Unrevealed until its season,
Something God alone can see. 
(UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN DEAR NEPHEW)

Missing You!<3  / Robin Dicken (Friend)
Bryon, I was just sitting here thinking about you .. Its crazy, yesterday was 14 months since you've been gone .. Me and mommy got talking, it doesnt feel like it .. It feels like yesterday, we were laughing and goofing off at camp .. I havent been out to your grave lately, I need to though .. It just gets harder for me eachtime ..

Everytime I hear Who You'd Be Today .. I cant help but cry! .. I know your watching down over me, and its selfish to want you here instead .. Your picture is on top my tv, so I can look at it everyday =D .. It helps make me smile .. Chelle and me get talking about you all the time, everytime we talk you get brought up .. Everything just seems so different, hopefully things ease up, but I dont look for them too .. I Love You Buddie!<3

I'M HERE  / Doug &. Sue Bridges (Uncle & Aunt )

I'm right by your side each night and day. And within your heart I'll always stay.
My body is gone but I'm always near. I'm everything you feel,see or hear.
My spirit is free,but I'll never depart As long as you keep me alive in your heart. 
I'll never wander out of your sight-I'm the brightest star on a summer night. 
I'll never be beyond your reach. I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach. 
I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around And pure white snow that blankets the ground. 
The beautiful flowers of which you're fond. 
The clear cool water in a quiet pond. 
I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,The 1st warm raindrop that April will bring. 
The first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,And you'll see that face in the moon is mine. 
When you start thinking there's no one to love, You can talk to me through the Lord above you. 
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees And you'll feel my presence in the summer breeze. 
I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep, And the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep. 
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me ,I'm everyplace!

SKATEBOARDING WITH THE KING  / Missing You

I see the countless Christmas trees
Around the world below,
With tiny lights like heaven's stars
Reflecting in the snow.

The sight is so spectacular
Please wipe away that tear
For I'm spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs
That people hold so dear
But earthly music can't compare
With the Christmas choir up here.

I know how much you miss me,
Trust God and have no fear
For I'm spending Christmas
With Jesus Christ this year.

I can't tell you of the splendor
Or the peace here in this place.
Can you imagine Christmas
With our Savior, face to face?

So let your hearts be joyful
And let your spirits sing
For I'm spending 
Christmas in Heaven
And I'm Skateboarding with the king! 

(Loved & Truely missed by all who knew Bryon)

I Miss You More N More Eachday!<33  / Robin Dicken (Friend)
Bryon,
     I know I tell you all the time how much I miss you, but I want you to always remember your forever be in my heart. I get to thinking about you all the time, expecially when I am at camp. Sometimes its hard as ever to sit on the swing, because it never failed everytime I'd go up to the store and sit there, Id hear your fourwheeler and the next think I knew you were walking down towards camp. I miss them days like you wouldnt believe. It still feels unreal to me that your gone. I still have that journal I started writting to you in. I write every couple of days, just to let you know how much I miss you, and to let you know about whats going on. I know you already know, but it feels like we are communicating somewhat. In about 2 months, you will be gone one whole year. I honestly sometimes dont understand how I've made it as far as I have. Theres somedays I feel that your there with me. I find comfort at your grave, even though I cant hold back the tears when I'm there. I know your still here with everyone, its just hard to cope with sometimes. I cant wait to see you again! I love you buddie more then you can imagine<33
                                           Love always and forever<33

I know how this feels and I am so very sorry  / Lesley Mom Of Mark Schroeder

Michelle and family, when my beautiful son Mark died tragically at the age of 17 I read somewhere that it is good to speak to families who have been traveling the road of grief a little longer than you have.
Your Byron was so beautiful and vibrant. Please take comfort from me when I tell you, the pain does lessen, in time you will come to sense him around you all the time. Death does not separate us from those we love. Theya re always with us. Always!
I send you much love and invite you to to visit my son's site where many of his friends have shared their journey through grief and the visions and dreams that confirm that death does not mean the end.
