~Thank you for lighting a candle for Jillian Beach~ As I read your incredible son's humanitarium ways I can only imagine how proud you are to be Clint's parents. There was no stopping as I read on and on. Any parent would be proud and honored to have their child feel about life the way your son did and the goodness your son Clint brought not only to people, but his love for animals. It truly brought tears to my eyes. There is no doubt that your son truly loved life. His short and untimely departure makes me feel that he had so much Love to give and in just 20 yrs. his story tells a lifetime. As he touched your lives as your son & brother he has touched my life.

Sharing Clint's story brings so much help to many others who have gone through such difficult battles. I hope in that "odd" way that Clint's story makes us all understand more about what we can and cannot control. We are just human. I also believe your son has helped many many people battling our own issues with chemical inbalances. For what ever reason God needed your son Clint, I believe his story will continue to help others because you have been kind to share his story, his incredible life.

I send my most deepest condolences to each of you. I am so sorry for your pain. I thank you for sharing such a wonderful son and human being for so many to read and understand. He was already an angel the day he was born. His story about his life says it all. I've had to learn that God takes the special ones, it's hard to think that way but when one reads another childs story and what your son gave to life, well, I think he was one heck of a "great young man", and a true person anyone would have been proud and honored to have known your son "Clint".

Each night  I light a candle for our "silly jilly" and please know that when this eve comes, and always with a sadness, I will light a special one for this incredible young man and his family. Clint will always be remembered in my home, his story I will carry with me.

With much Love & prayers, Sincerely Donna "angel jillys" Godmother...ox

Hello.  I don't know you but I saw the link to Clint's memorial on Silent Grief.

I want to tell you how very much I appreciate your eloquent words regarding Clint's struggles with mental illness, specifically bipolar disorder, and drug addiction.  I lost my 21 year old daughter Kari in March of '04 to the same type of death and can completely relate to what you have written and referenced.  I wish everyone who negates mental illness and/or the reason for addiction would be able to read your memorial.

I truly hope that Clint and Kari are friends wherever they may be, nurturing the younger children and enjoying whatever "life" they may have...

We all tried so hard, as did they...we did the best we could with what we knew...may we achieve a bit of peace in knowing this...

With much love and gratitude,

Gina McMurray

To Clint's Parents:

    I am so sorry for your loss. Clint sounds like a sweet young boy with a big heart. He sounds a little like our Stevie. He was also born in Tennessee , 1985 and died 2005 in Nashville. My heart goes out to you Mom as I know thair is no stronger bond. My daughter will never completely get over Stevie. Time makes it more bareable and the rest of the family needed her so she just toughened up and went on. Life seems to change so much after the loss of a child. I do believe that your Clint is in a good place and is safe and happy as is our Stevie. I also believe that one day , God willing, we will all meet again. No words do I have to take away your pain,but know that your in my prayers tonite.

                                                                           God Bless

Debra, your story about Clint is really nice, I'm so sorry for your loss. I know somedays the pain is hard to bear, behind our smiles we carry a heavy heart. We hide our tears to look strong.
There is no way to heal, i think we carry this heartache a long time.  But knowing God holds our child makes it easier.
I have this book of poems people wrote in honor of their
loved one they lost. Compassateon friends gave it to me at a meeting onetime. Every christmas time they light candles.
I hope you will enjoy them. May God bless you and your family.

You Will Be In Heaven

When the flowers of spring come up from the ground

and the birds of the sky make their cheerful sound

You will be in heaven, and I'll be here,

I still miss you and shed a tear.

When summer comes along, and the fields are green,

You will be in Heaven, looking at the lord,

The most beautiful sight you have ever seen.

In the fall, with colorful leaves floating gracefully downward,

You will be in heaven, listening to angels,

The most beautiful sound you ever heard.

In the white of winter, when it's the earth's time to sleep

You will be in heaven, with your eternal home to keep.



Together Again

We wish you were with us, we know you are near,

But just one more time, your voice we could hear.

We miss you with all our heart, and someday we will be with you,

You will come back to get us, and take us home with you, too.

The lord took you, to heaven to live,

For he is the master, He can take and he can give.

He had chosen you first, He needed you then,

So someday we will see you, and be together again.

We know we will never find another you,

No matter how long, we guess it's true.

God only made one of you, and you were the one,

He gave you to us, for you were our son.

The memories of you, we cherish everyday,

These are ours, no one can take them away.

So together again, just wait and see,

it will be the greatest, that could ever be.

Debra
I’m so touched by your story; Clint was an amazing young man even in dead we can always be proud of our children. They say God takes the young to even everything off in Heaven and than they say only the Good Die Young we will never know the answers to our questions until we are together again. But I do believe no matter how our children die it was not at their own hands, the day they are born it was written in the book the day they will go back home.
Thank you for sharing Clint with me, and please know you are in my prayers and thoughts. God Bless

 
Peace & Love
Diane (Mom to angel Jimmy Brozzetti)

Were you one of the Lucky Ones?

Did you get to meet the one that lived
every day as if it were his last?

Did you see that smiling face,
did you hear his infectious laugh?

Did you know the one that had a hug
for even the ones that fussed at him?

Did you ever go somewhere and know
when the life of the party arrived?

Did you know the one that could make
the best of the worst situation?

Did you feel like you were a special
person around him?

Did you ever feel so loved?

Were you one of the lucky ones...
that got to meet my son?

I KNOW HOW HARD THESE SPECIAL DAYS ARE, DAVID'S BIRTHDAY IS ON THE 19TH, KEEPING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN MY PRAYERS, THOUGHTS AND LOVE~

I thought you would like the lyrics to the song Lost by Michael Buble.  I had it playing on James' site a while back and felt that our Angels had written it for us. xxx

"Lost"

I can't believe it's over
I watched the whole thing fall
And I never saw the writing that was on the wall
If I'd only knew
The days were slipping past
That the good things never last
That you were crying

Summer turned to winter
And the snow it turned to rain
And the rain turned into tears upon your face
I hardly recognized the girl you are today
And god I hope it's not too late
It's not too late
'Cause you are not alone
I'm always there with you
And we'll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When your worlds crashing down
And you can't bear the thought
I said, babe, you're not lost

Life can show no mercy
It can tear your soul apart
It can make you feel like you've gone crazy
But you're not
Things have seem to changed
There's one thing that's still the same
In my heart you have remained
And we can fly fly fly away

'Cause you are not alone
And I am there with you
And we'll get lost together
Till the light comes pouring through
'Cause when you feel like you're done
And the darkness has won
Babe, you're not lost
When the worlds crashing down
And you can not bear the cross
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost
I said, baby, you're not lost

Even though I didn't know your son, I want to extend a great deal of gratitude to you and your family.  My son, his name is Collin Warren,  is also buried in Seymour Memory Gardens. He was only 19 days old when he went to be with your son and God. I want to thank you for all the little things that you have done for me and my family by placing small tokens of your kindness on his gravesite.  You don't understand how grateful I am for your sincere thoughts in doing what you have done. I have not been strong enough over the past few months to return a message to you but I just want you to know that your kindness has not gone unnoticed.
