In Memory Of ~ Rita
In Memory Dates ~ February 3, 1966~June 10, 1996
Candle lit by ~ Her Mother, Sandra
Comments ~ Our precious Rita passed away two hours after giving birth to her second child, baby Evan. Evan was six days overdue and weighed nine pounds. He was so perfect and so beautiful. Baby Evan died the day after his mommy and was laid to rest with her, in his little sister's Christening gown. This hidious tragedy has shattered our souls and we are forever helpless to regain any semblance of normalcy to our lives.
~ To Rita and Evan ~ Your love surrounds us in everything we do. Eternal peace and love our precious ones.

In Memory Of ~ Thomas Hobert Robinson
In Memory Dates ~ May 1,1919 - Feb.1, 1998
Candle lit by ~ His Daughter, Ola Ann
Comments ~ This is in memory of my father. It's been two years now since his death and a day doesn't go by that he's now with me in spirit. My father died of a massive heart attack on February 1, 1998 ~ he grew up as a child and lived in Tennessee, and to this day he is laid to rest beside his Mother (whose name is Ola). I live in California and have always dreaded a phone call early in the mornings, knowing that a phone call at 4 o'clock from a relative is not a good one, but when I got the call from my Uncle, I knew that my fathers' transistion had taken place. It was one of the hardest days of my life and I'm not so sure that the pain gets any easier, my heart has just learned to live with it. I believe in angels and I know that he is one that is among me always. My father was a robust man standing 6'3 in stature, and had very large hands. I remember his hands mainly because of their size and how they use to clasp my when we would walk together and how secure I always felt. Thomas Hobert, whom everyone referred to him as Tom if they didn't call him by his first and middle name, lived a good life. He had 3 children, 2 girls and 1 boy, all of us were born within 3 years and 5 days of each other... my parents were busy! He had many, many friends in the town of Smithville, and his death was a great loss to all of us. As a young boy my father got tagged the nickname of "mockingbird", as he could do several different bird calls and they sounded real... it is also the State Bird of Tennessee. I write this part in his memory as I have a Mockingbird that visits my backyard on a daily basis... angels do appear in different forms and it never fails when I'm depressed or having doubts, the mockingbird always seems to show up and sings for me. It seems to take me out of my place of discomfort and places me in a different demeaner, one to be thankful and grateful for the time I had with him, and for the life I have today. When my windchimes sound or when I see butterflys, I always think of him as well as a couple of other people who were important loves in my life who have made their transition, and it always brings a smile to my face and joy to my heart to know that I had the privileged to have these people in my life. My dad was a great football fanatic, and my last conversation with him was on SuperBowl Sunday, January 1998. He passed away just a couple of days after that. I too am a advid football follower, but over the past two years it has been hard for me to follow the game because everytime one of our favorite teams would win I would always pick up the phone and call my dad and chat with him about the highlights and the excitement of the game. This past year, I held a SuperBowl party here at my house, my guest did not know - but it was to be in honor of my dad and to be with him again in something he loved. So this is to my Dad whom I miss terribly, but I know that he is in Heaven. I want to thank him for the smile he had in his voice, the truth he spoke with his lips, and for the Love he had in his soul. We are put on earth a little space that we might learn to bear the beams of love. I love you daddy, from your daughter ~ Ola Ann
