Msg. fwd from Beth Long to Timara Meeks
My Brendan reminded me of something yesterday that I want to share with you. Last year was the first year he was not scared of the 4th of July, but he spent it in Florida with my dad, so this is the first year I was able to spend with him that he was not inside screaming and trying to hide from the fireworks. He and I were driving home and we were talking and laughing about all of the different years he hid from the fireworks, and how two years ago we were at the lake and I sat in the van with him with the windows up (I wanted to die it was so hot).
For several years, we went to my friend Amy's house between Pryor and Claremore. We couldn't agree on if it was four or five years ago, but we invited Chris, and he and Timmy came. They got there after dinner, but in time to watch most of the fireworks. All of the older kids had left and Jordan was with his mom, I felt bad for Timmy because he ended up being the only teenager left. Brendan of course was inside with his best friend Allison, who is just like him, including her fear of fireworks. As we were driving past a cemetary yesterday on the way home, Brendan asked if that is where Timmy was burried, and where he was burried and wanted to know if Timmy would be able to see the fireworks because he knows Timmy isn't scared of them. As we were telling our remember when stories about his fear of fireworks, he told me he would always remember when Timmy sat inside with him and Allison because they were scared. He said "just because our firecrackers were over there was still firecrackers going on all around us and we were still scared and you guys didn't know, but Timmy stayed with us and covered his ears with us and made us laugh so we wouldn't be so scared and he watched Sponge Bob with us until all the noise was over." I think Brendan and Allison fell asleep and Timmy went in the other room and watched MTV but Brendan doesn't know that. I had forgotten about that until he reminded me yesterday. I thought it would be a good story to share with you.
 
I hope everything is good with you.

Timmy,
  This is a great picture of Papa & I in the garage practicing with our new digital camera a few months ago. I thought you would get a kick out of it because you were always our "TECH GUY" and now we are having to learn all kinds of new technology from scratch...yes we consider the digital camera "NEW TECHNOLOGY" We've got a lot to learn, huh?

OUR SON'S RESTING PLACE
Beneath this simple stone
that marks his resting place,
Our beloved son sleeps
in the Lords long embrace.

Memories are all thats left
for his Dad and I to hold,
Because our son, Timothy,
went to Heaven when he
was just eighteen years old.

We feel empty and lonely,
since he left our lives so soon,
we find great comfort in knowing
that he is with his Grandma June.

Timmy, we can feel you with us and
sometimes in the distance
we can see your smiling face,
until we meet again,
we weep at your resting place.
