In Memory of Jake Anthony Willard.

Here is a picture slide show of one amazing friend, brother, son, grandchild, etc.

Today is May 4 2011 and it's your 21st birthday. I can't begin to imagine what all of us would be up to this weekend. But you know everyone will be having one for you .

Tmrw, May 5 2011, will be 6 years, and to this today I can still remember the weather, how warm it was, everything.

May4 2005 was your 15th birthday and I remember that day so well. Before school my friend and I sitting on the curb, and you and your best friend. You guys walked by, we talked for a bit and you guys headed on your way. As you both walked away me and my friend yelled and sang the happy birthday song to you. Never forget it ahha .

I can also remember down to a T, the huge turn out at your funeral, that's how you know how special you are and how you know you touched someone's life. I swore our whole school , was there , along with your family, People were standing outside even.

Then I remember as they were loading you into the Hurst, one of your parents was holding your little sister and I remember here saying " where are they taking Jake? " I cried even more.

You've touched so many lives, and so many are blessed to know you.
I'm shaking while writing this it's unbelievable it's been this long, feels like yesterday. I even have a huge photo album that has a page dedicated to you. Sometimes I write in it you. Like today *hearts*

You are always missed and everyone thinks of you so often.

Program Booklet.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glint on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle morning rain.
And when you wake In the morning's hush,
I am the sweet uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die

ONE YEAR NEWS CLIPPING
It's hard to believe it's been a year. There are not words to express the way I feel. But these words from my favorite song helps.
I feel you everywhere I go
I see your smile, I see your face.
Everywhere I go.
I still can't believe you're gone.
It sin't fair you died too young.
Like a story that just begun.
But death tore pages all away
God knows how I miss you
Just know no one will ever take your place.
Some days the *faded words* blue, feels like I can talk to you.
The only thing *faded words* hope.
Is I know I will see you again someday.
Jake, I am so proud to be your mom, and just know that one day you will be in mommy's arms again.
Mommy loves you
Love Mommy(Crystal)
P.S We love you, look for our messages.

ANSWERS .
Unfortunately, he was hit by a train, and we all know we're not suppose to But he's a super smart kid who made one wrong choice, and that one choice took him away forever.


RIP -- you're always missed and we're always thinking of you.
