Bobby Jack Outlaw II

In loving memory of a beautiful lady

Biviana Valenzuela

Today your Grandma has been in Heaven for 10 years. I find it so hard to believe that so many years have come and gone. Dad doesn't say much but I know he misses Grandma a lot and I can't blame him...I miss her too.

You know she fought a long hard battle with cancer and she passed away when you were in the hospital after starting dialysis. I remember it so well. She had surgery on Tuesday May 11th and her cancer had gotten so bad they couldn't do anything for her so they just bandaged her up and left her that way. We were there that day and I remember how hard it was being told her time was limited to maybe just days. Then the next day you had those aweful seizures and went into the hospital in Austin and we never got to see her again. She lived for two more weeks and the day before she passed away  you were finally doing well enough for Dad to go see her for a few hours. When he went down the halls of the hospital he could hear her calling his name. After visiting with her for about 4 or 5 hours she went to sleep and he left and drove back to Austin. He was the last person she talked to as she never woke up again. We were in clinic getting your dialysis the next morning when we got the call that she was gone. It was so heart breaking telling you and Dad that Grandma was gone. I'm so thankful Dad got to see her the day before. I believe that's what she was waiting for as he was the only one of her children that hadn't got to see her again. She knew he needed to be with you so she held on for him or at least the Lord allowed her to. I know it always made you sad that you didn't get to see her again and Buddy I'm so sorry. But I know you're together now waiting for us and I can't wait. Let her know we all love her and miss her and we'll be there just as soon as the Lord will let us.

Love you bunches, Mama

B.J. the night before your birthday I had a dream about you. In the dream you looked about 16 years old but you were really the age you would be now. You were so thin and you were wearing the tan coat Dad had given you and you didn't have a shirt on. In the dream you were walking down the road and I saw you and went running to meet you. I was asking you if it was really you and I was crying and telling you how much I loved and missed you. You told me you had never died. You said you had pretended your death and that you had been away all this time trying to find yourself or something like that. B.J. I know you would never have done to us. I was upset that you would go away and pretend to have died but I was so happy that you were still alive that I couldn't be mad at you. I was yelling at everyone that was around to look...B.J. came home...he didn't die! Then I woke up and realized it was only a dream and you really were gone. Oh B.J. I miss you so much. I wanted so badly to dream about you but that dream just broke my heart.

Love you forever, Mama

Words of Comfort

Life can sometimes bring along

Times of sadness and pain-

Times when we fear the sun

Will never shine again.

When such times come around

Please don't think of losing hope

For, you have the strength within

That will always help you cope.

For, the mountains before you

That seem too steep to climb

Will lead you to the sunshine

That the clouds have just behind.

So, even though right now

They fill your life with sorrow

Please know that, beyond them

Lies a beautiful tomorrow.

Birthdays In Heaven

Birthdays in heaven are a wonderful site
Where generations of family once again unite.
Nothing on earth can ever compare
to the sounds of the angels singing "Happy Birthday My Dear!"

We gather together with our family and friends
And circle the world with love once again.
We know that you miss us and we want you to know
that birthdays up here are not much different than below.

For we have cake with candles and one wish we always make
That your heart will know love and will never again ache.
So tonight go outside and count the stars in the sky
for as I blow out my candles they will flicker up high.

And as this is happening you'll know deep in your heart
That Heaven and Earth aren't really that far apart!

.

BIRTHDAY IN HEAVEN

.
I HEARD YOU CRYING YESTERDAY
AND FELT YOUR HEART SENT LOVE
SO I'M SENDING YOU THIS MESSAGE
FROM HEAVEN UP ABOVE

.

YOU'RE WONDERING IF I'LL CELEBRATE
MY BIRTHDAY WAY UP HERE
I KNOW YOU'LL BE MISSING ME
I FEEL YOUR ESSENCE NEAR

. 

GOD PLANNED A SPECIAL DAY FOR ME
HE TOLD ME WITH A WINK
HE ORDERED ME A SPECIAL CAKE
IT'S ANGEL FOOD I THINK

.

I'M GETTING LOTS OF HUGS FROM GOD
HE'S REALLY GOOD AT THAT
AND EVERY TIME I WALK BY
HE GIVES MY HEAD A PAT

.

BALLOONS WILL FILL THE STREETS FOR ME
THEY FLOAT UP THRU THE CLOUDS
AND WE HAVE LOTS OF CLOWNS UP HERE
THEY MAKE US LAUGH OUT LOUD

.
I'VE MADE SO MANY FRIENDS UP HERE
WE LAUGH AND PLAY AND SING
WE ENJOY THE MOUNTAINS AND SUNSHINE
AND WE SLEEP IN ANGELS WINGS

.

I'LL HAVE MY CAKE AND ICE CREAM
AND OPEN MY GIFTS WITH SURPRISE
BUT WE DON'T BLOW OUT CANDLES HERE
INSTEAD WE LIGHT THE SKIES

.

Happy 25th Birthday Bobby Outlaw.

Happy  

25th

Birthday

Sending loads of love on this Mother's Day.  May you always remember the love shared between your Angels and you.
