To the family of Brandi Ward:

I was looking up special sayings and quotes about Kindergarten Teachers(trying to do something special for my sons K. teacher for the end of the year) and happened upon your site.  Once I started reading, I just could not stop.  What a wonderful tribute to Brandi and it is obvious she was such a wonderful person who touched many lives.  I normally do not just respond to things on a whim, but this site was so moving and uplifting.  My day started out so so and I was not in the best of mood(thiking about all I needed to do) - WOW!  God and Brandi gave me a wake up call and said get over yourself, put things into perspective and appreciate this wonderful life.  It is so easy to get caught up in the small stuff and to forget the things that are truly important.  I am a married 43 yr.old mother of two boys from Lexington, SC.  I lost both of my parents early on in life, but just like Brandi - we celebrated their lives and our time with them.   I just wanted you to know that Brandi is still touching lives from heaven.  I can't help to think my parents are up there and had a hand in this.  However it happened, I am truly thankful to have read about your wonderful daughter and the message she sent to me today.  What a gift!  Thank you for sharing her story.  God Bless you and your family.

Sincerely,

Gigi Godley

Marguerite,

I have been thinking of you constantly. I know how difficult angel dates can be, at least for me. You have always been so kind, sweet, and thoughtful. If Brandi was only half as kind as you then she had to be a wonderful person and now a special angel, but oh how we miss them. I carry your cross with me and think of you and your kindness. Another hangs in my kitchen, reminding me of our friendship and God's love. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

God may have Brandi in his care, but we hold her in our hearts forever. Sending lots of love and hugs~Jo-Ann

Marguerite, Sometimes the pain of loosing someone you love makes you forget that you are not alone. Thank you so much for lighting a candle on my Dad's site. It brought tears to my eyes to see that other people really do care, And that I am not alone. You and your family are in my thoughts and Prayers may God Bless you all.

When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and 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,
We 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 you'll miss me 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,
and said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love.

But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye
For all my life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.

I had so much to live for,
So much left yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving you.

I thought of all the yesterdays
The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.

If I could re-live yesterday
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile.

But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.

And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.

But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From His great golden throne.

He said, "This is eternity,
And all I've promised you."
Today your life on earth is past,
But here life starts anew.

I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last,
And since each day's the same way
There's no longing for the past.

You have been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times
You did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.

But you have been forgiven
And now at last you're free.
So won't you come and take my hand
And share my life with me?

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.

Dear Brandi, Have a wonderful time with all our Angels, once again lighting up our skies with your celebrations and leaving you small signs of love, peace and strength for your precious family, who miss you so much.  Love Never Dies.
