Renne' Dowler <rennedo@aol.com> Washington, PA - Sunday, December 5, 2010 9:03 PM CST Hi Coles. I just wanted to stop by and let you know I was thinking of you all and pray for you often! Colby & your family are always in my heart! Love, Danielle Danielle Ny - Friday, March 26, 2010 4:54 PM CDT Hi Laura, Wanted to let you know I have been thinking of you and your family .Love,Regina Regina - Sunday, January 3, 2010 6:01 PM CST Just a short message to say I am thinking of you this Christmas. Love Vikki www.postpals.co.uk Vikki George <viks@postpals.co.uk> United Kingdom - Wednesday, December 16, 2009 6:04 AM CST Hi Laura and Jack, Just wanted you to know that you have been in my prayers this past week as the day of Colby's departure from this earth approached. Colby was one of the first CaringBridge children I fell in love with and he will always have a very special place in my heart. His smile always brought a smile to my face every time I opened up his web site. I know you both still miss hime terribly and the emptiness and pain never goes away. He was such a special little boy. I praise God for his short life and know that he is in the Lord's army just waiting to one day be reunited with you. Love, Debbie Nagy <nagyhome@sbcglobal.net> St. Louis, - Sunday, June 14, 2009 9:34 PM CDT Hi Laura,Not sure how often you visit the site however just wanted you to know I am thinking of you and still remembering. Cyer Hugs Regina <rmsloan@hotmail.com> - Saturday, April 4, 2009 7:38 AM CDT I just had to stop by today and wish Colby a Happy Birthday! I hope that you had a great birthday in heaven. I imagine birthdays up there are the best ever! Lisa Lynnwood, WA - Saturday, February 14, 2009 9:23 PM CST Thinking of you today. Maria <mariaw19@hotmail.com> NJ - Saturday, February 14, 2009 7:56 AM CST Laura and Jack- Heyyyyyy! It has been MUCH TOO LONG since we have communicated, but in all that time, you and your family and Colby have never strayed far from my thoughts.......you have a permanent place in my heart and in my life, and even if we don't talk as much as we used to, I still value all the times we talked and the time we spent together in Va Beach. I just don't have or take the time to visit websites anymore.....it's not that it's not important, but I just have so much taking my time that it gets pushed to the bottom of my list......every couple of months when I have to put together a JMML kid update for the JMML Foundation, I get a quick view again, but many times it is so difficult. In some ways we are so far removed from that time ourselves, it becomes quite difficult to go back......I'm sure you understand. We never forget what has happened, or those who have moved on, but we also must move on somehow, in order to survive. Today I took the time to visit Colby's website, and even though the last update was a year ago, it's good to read. I would love to see what has happened in the past year as well. How is Jack's business venture going? and how is school and the new job Laura? How old are the boys and how are things with Jackson? Come see what's new in our world when you have time-- www.caringbridge.org/visit/briandaubach. Love and hugs to you all! Niki and the boys Niki Daubach <ndaubach@cox.net> - Tuesday, December 30, 2008 10:56 AM CST Merry Christmas in Heaven Little Angel of God. Sending Hugs to U in Heaven Colby. Love,Berneice <charsmom79_98@msn.com> Masontown, Pa USA - Thursday, December 25, 2008 1:26 AM CST First, and most importantly, I am so sorry for your loss. I just came across your site and noted that someone had sent you something I wrote -- What Grieving People Want You to Know, and hope it has meant something to you. This time of year can be extra difficult, so I hope you are surrounded by the caring love of your friends and family. Virginia A. Simpson, Ph.D., FT www.drvirginiasimpson.com Dr. Virginia A. Simpson <drvsimpson@verizon.net> Indian Wells, CA 92210 - Monday, December 1, 2008 12:52 AM CST Dear Cole Family, Just thought I would sign in and say you were all on my mind tonight and just wondering how you are all doing. I hope that school is going well for you Laura and the the boys. I'm sure they are growing by leaps and bounds. I hope that things have settled in after the move into a new place of Jack's business. Please know that I still think of Colby and all of you so often. God Bless. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. Bev Gorr (Make-A-Wish) Bev Gorr <bgorr@verizon.net> N.

Life is so strange now for us too, Jeffery is actually trying to grow his wings, after 5yrs, 2mths, and 10days of fighting, he's getting tired now, still holding on though, and loving the tv, and of course, not giving up food, yet. Hospice came in and he improved,so we let them go, now changing again. How much can a family endure??? Well, guess we'll find out. I miss chatting back and worth w/ya'll. I stopped updating so much when all was well. He's 20yrs old now, but will always be our precious baby. May God bless you all, and keep Colby and Grandma showing you beautiful signs of their presence.

When my Hubby called and said lots of cars were over your Mom's I knew .... :( I am so sorry you are going through a rough time right now... She is with Colby and they are together.... I am so glad your Mom was at your place with you when she passed to her new Home in the Heavens.... :) I will continue to keep you in my daily prayers....

There are so many who need so much. I want to leave you something -- something much better than words or sounds. Look for me in the people I've known or helped in some special way.

Valentines...... To Heaven This Valentine is not of the ordinary kind, Its still filled with love...and blessings inside; But mine has to be sent on the wings of love... You see its destination is the Heavens above. Its not being sent to my parents so dear, For they are still with me each day of the year; Its being sent to my child...who left earth so soon, Who's now in the Heavens with the stars and the moon. The message is the same as your valentine, "I love you...my sweet precious child of mine; My love is still deeper than the ocean is blue, And its sent with hugs and kisses...from me to you." "I know you are with me each and every day, You listen as I talk to you...and hear what I say; For that is one thing that disease cannot do... ...you'll always be apart of me...and me a part of you." "I know God did not give you the awful disease, Thank Him for His comfort He gives me...would you please? I dont know what I would do without His undying love... Sent to bereaved parents from the Heavens above." "I know you are in the best of care, But it's so hard for us left on earth to bear; Could you put in a request from us left behind... For God to send the knowledge..so a cure we can find." "So that no other family has to go through this pain, Our lives without you will never be the same; When I get lonely I will look to the sky at night... And see you shining down your big bright light." **~ BRENDA~**MY LOVING DAD'S SITE WITH A NEW YEAR ANOTHER ANGEL <brurka@shaw.ca> ****Edmonton~Alberta~Canada****, - Monday, February 12, 2007 4:30 PM CST Stopping by to say hello, thinking of you today....

The sight is so spectacular please wipe away that tear for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear but the sound of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here. I have no words to tell you of the joy their voices bring for it is beyond description to hear the angels sing. I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I can't tell you of the splendor or the peace here in this place Can you just imagine Christmas with our Savior face to face? I'll ask him to lift your spirit as I tell him of your love so then pray for one another as you lift your eyes above. Please let your hearts be joyful and let your spirit sing for I am spending Christmas in heaven and I'm walking with the King.

Hope all is well with you all.. Take Care & May God Be With You Always... (((HUGS))) Berneice Wanted to share this poem with you The Stockings Were Hung: The stockings were hung by the chimney with care But one special stocking was no longer there All that was left were the memories bittersweet Of a life that had ended so incomplete The family had pictures all gathered around That sometimes made all of them tear up and frown For the sorrow and sadness without their sweet child Made it difficult for the whole family to smile Although there were times when they felt him(her) so close As if they were feeling some kind of a ghost The signs that were sent were so special and clear That they felt that he(she) truly was so very near They often would talk to him(her) as if he(she) was there Sometimes they would smile but also shed tears For each Christmas that came brought with it such pain That they felt in their hearts would always remain Then one special moment on one special day He(She) came to them and simply took them away To fly through the heavens and up to the stars A beautiful place that was not very far He(She) showed them where they would all join once again A place full of beauty no sorrow or pain A place where he(she) is happy with heavenly friends A place where we too will also ascend After their amazing visit was through This family was no longer terribly blue For they finally realized one day not to far They would all be together on a heavenly star In loving memory of Joey and his heavenly buddies Lyndie Sorenson December 2006 Love,Berneice <charsmom79_98@yahoo.com> Masontown, Pa USA - Monday, December 18, 2006 10:17 AM CST Thinking of you during this holiday season! love, Susan and Angel Jordan www.caringbridge.org/ia/jordangrosclaude Susan <grosclaude@msn.com> Marion, IA - Sunday, December 17, 2006 4:47 PM CST Just stopping by to get a glimpse of Colby's beautiful smile.

Love, Susan and Angel Jordan www.caringbridge.org/ia/jordangrosclaude Susan Grosclaude <Grosclaude@msn.com> - Wednesday, November 22, 2006 9:05 PM CST The Gap The gap between those who have lost children and those who have not is profoundly difficult to bridge. No one, whose children are well and intact can be expected to understand what parents who have lost children have absorbed and what they bear. Our children come to us through every blade of grass, every crack in the sidewalk, every bowl of breakfast cereal. We seek contact with their atoms, their hairbrush, their toothbrush, their clothing. We reach for what was integrally woven into the fabric of our lives, now torn and shredded. A black hole has been blown through our souls and, indeed, it often does not allow the light to escape. It is a difficult place. For us to enter there is to be cut deeply, and torn anew, each time we go there, by the jagged edges of our loss. Yet we return, again and again, for that is where our children now reside. This will be so for years to come and it will change us profoundly. At some point in the distant future, the edges of that hole will have tempered and softened but the empty space will remain - a life sentence. Our friends will change through this. There is no avoiding it. We grieve for our children, in part, through talking about them and our feelings for having lost them. Some go there with us, others cannot and through their denial and a further measure, however unwittingly, to an already heavy burden. Assuming that we may be feeling "better" six months later is simply "to not get it." The excruciating and isolating reality that bereaved parents feel is hermetically sealed from the nature of any other human experience. Thus it is a trap - those whose compassion and insight we most need are those for whom we abhor the experience that would allow them that sensitivity and capacity. And yet, somehow there are those, each in their own fashion, who have found a way to reach us and stay, to our comfort. They have understood, again each in their own way, that our children remain our children through our memory of them. Their memory is sustained through speaking about them and our feelings about their death. Deny this and you deny their life. Deny their life and you no longer have a place in ours. We recognize that we have moved to an emotional place where it is often very difficult to reach us. Our attempts to be normal are painful and the day to day carries a silent, screaming anguish that accompanies us, sometimes from moment to moment. Were we to give it its own voice we fear we would become truly unreachable, and so we remain "strong" for a host of reasons even as the strength saps our energy and drains our will. Were we to act out our true feelings we would be impossible to be with. We resent having to act normal, yet we dare not do otherwise. People who understand this dynamic are our gold standard. Working our way through this over the years will change us as does every experience - and extreme experience changes one extremely. We know we will have recovered when, as we have read, it is no longer so painful to be normal. We do not know who we will be at that point or who will still be with us. We have read that the gap is so difficult that, often, bereaved parents must attempt to reach out to friends and relatives or risk losing them. This is our attempt. For those untarnished by such events, who wish to know in some way what they, thankfully, do not know, read this. It may provide a window that is helpful for both sides of the gap.

I was an avid Colby fan and check on him daily for months and months. However, I haven't visited in a long time.

He was such a sweet and amazing little boy and I was reminded of how he touched my life even though I'd never met him.

I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard. There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven. She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she’s cried. I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know That though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so. She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too, Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do? My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight. She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well. So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth She needs to be honored, and remembered too Just as the children of earth will do. Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you’ll do your best I have done all I can do; to you I’ll leave the rest. Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

HAPPY ST.PATRICKS DAY LOVE ALWAYS BRENDAMY LOVING DAD'S SITE <brurka@shaw.ca> EDMONTON,ALBERTA/CANADA, - Tuesday, March 14, 2006 3:25 AM CST Good Morning Cole Family, Just checking in... Haven't been here for awhile... Hope all is well at home... I bet the boys are really growing up... I have been thinking about Angel Colby this morning... Wanted to stop by and say Hello..... An Angel's Kiss We go through life so often, not stopping to enjoy the day. And we take each one for granted, As we travel on our way. For in your pain and sorrow, An Angel's Kiss will help you through, This kiss is very private, For it is meant for only you. We never stop to measure, Anything we just might miss. But if the wind should blow by softly, You'll feel an Angel's Kiss. A kiss that is sent from heaven, A kiss from up above. A kiss that is very special, From someone that you love. So when, your hearts are heavy, And filled with tears and pain, And no one can console you, Remember once again... About the ones you grieve for, Because you sadly miss. And the gentle breeze you took for granted, Was just an Angel's Kiss. ?

For I am there with you. Today is my birthday My legacy is not wealth or mighty belongings, My legacy is you and your life. Spend it wisely and carefully Guard it always Do not be sad Feel the wind on your face and in your hair And know that I loved you For I am there with you, in your laughter And in your hearts. Today is my birthday Learn to live again without me Take my strength with you For you are not alone. Do not be sad Feel the rain on your face Feel all life's treasures and Know that you are alive! At each step of the way I will help you For I am with you always Until we meet again. Today is my birthday....
