I wish I would've stopped that day. When I passed you in the hallway, that ear to ear grin on your face as opposed to the tears that were streaming down that morning. If I knew that would be the last time I ever saw you, Heaven, I would've given you the biggest possible hug in the world, o matter how late for class I already was at that point... I miss you and love you, sweet girl, but i know youre free from the worldly pain that was brought up on you by so many and I'm so thankful to have known you when I did. I won't be out to put flowers for you for sometime as I have to move soon, but no matter how far I am from orange I know your spirit is watching over us and keeping us safe. I love you, Heaven. Fly high sweet girl.

So sorry, dear Heaven. Bipolar is a horrible disease that alters your thinking process. I pray for your family and friends. It is hard to imagine what they are feeling and experiencing. Go gently, family and friends, and know that she is truly at peace. Cynthia Guerrini, San Antonio, TX.

Rest in peace beautiful girl. I really, really miss you. We have so many good memories of playing volleyball together, running track together, and just talking about life. I know Jesus will treat you well, and I can't wait to see you again some day. Many prayers to Mrs. Tammy and family. -Dallas Jessie-@silsbeehighschool

Heavens lights dim the earth below with memories, sounds , and emotions for all of us to share in. We pass through this life and are privileged to touch and see and behold family, peace, love, fellowship, joy, and even the cup of our Lord Jesus; death and sin.
A cup we all must drink of if we are to have life in ourselves through him.
The sin of this world and its sting have taken many a people, it has damaged a lot of families yet we are commanded by the Lord to partake of this table of understanding, and to endure the pangs of this life, to carry our cross to the other side, to sojourn together knowing he and our loved ones that have passed on await us on the other side above the pangs of this life knowing that there is one who has went before us, who has prepared the way, the one and only CHRIST who has forged this paradise, where the keys of hell , death and the grave are no more.
When people practise evil, then they sell that evil in their own lives and God will hold each and everyone of them accountable for their crimes against God and his people. judgment is at hand and they will be held accountable for their sins against innocents and against gods people who stand in opposition to them who desire to harm the innocent, take advantage of the pure, to beguile beuty, to defile innocence.
The SEAL of Christ can never be broken, only opened by him who sits upon the throne.
May you rest in the Arms and green pastures of our Lord and savior Heaven Ray Cox. May you fly free and into his eternity of Love prepared for you before the foundations of the world. Peace to the family and much love and hope for you knowing your faith was never in vain and Gods promises will never fail and they are new every morning. May God send his peace and comfort over you all and may this cup, lead you higher as Heaven would have wanted.

Tammy, Words cannot express how very sorry I am for the.loss of your beautiful daughter. My aunt told me one time, that the loss of one of your children is the greatest loss of all. I did not know that you had lost Dusty, until I spoke with Lauren. Tammy, my prayers are with you and that our God will wrap His loving arms around you and give you the comfort that you so need at this devastating time.. Love, Sherry Adams

Heaven loved to write and share her stories with me. She would often visit with me in the mornings and we would talk about anything from our shared faith to favorite recipes. I will never forget her eagerness to learn and strive for excellence. Her attitude of being an overcomer was inspiring and contagious. You are forever held in our hearts Heaven Ray.
