Bobby Jack Outlaw II

hey buddy its October and it's starting to get to me really bad...you remember way back when...

Me, You, Pancho, Serena, and Stephanie would go toilet papering? We had so much fun back then. We would pack the back end of your Glitter Bug with so much TP that you almost couldn't see back there while you were driving. You always carried around mini butterfingers in a bag in the back seat just in case we needed a refueling while out doing our dirty work and having a great time! And not to mention all those Dr. Peppers that we went through! I sure do miss all those times! And now here it is again when everyone goes out and has all the fun that we used to have and you're not here to do it this year for the 3rd year in a row :( I'm sad and I miss spending all that time with you, even if other people were around. I love you buddy!

                     The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning, that God was going to call your name ( B.J. )

In life we loved you (B.J.) dearly, In death we do the same.

It broke our heart to lose you ( B.J.) you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you (B.J.) the day God called you home.

You (B.J.) Left us peaceful memories, your love is still our gude;

And though we can not see you (B.J.), you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Our meeting was so hard for me. Watching all the Angels helped me know I'm not alone. This journey of grief is so so very hard and I'm looking forward to the day I get to see my angel(Tim). Love Kathy

Hey buddy, mama wrote me a poem way back soon after you left. i just wanted to put it on here.

Brothers can be so bossy

And sometimes push comes to shove

But they take good care of you

Because you're someone that they love

B.J. knows that you love him

You know he loves you too

He's gone to be with Jesus

And he's waiting there for you

You feel all alone now

Since he had to go away

You're sad and broken hearted

And think sorrow's here to stay

He didn't mean to make you cry

And feel the way you do

He's sorry that you're hurting

He wants to comfort you

Close your eyes and see him

Think of all his funny ways

He's watching over you Kayla

He's in your heart for always.

Oh Buddy, I sit here and look at you pictures and my heart just breaks. I miss you so much every minute of every day. I still can't believe you're not ever coming back. How are we suspose to keep on going without you? You know how much I love your brother and sisters but B.J. a part of me is gone and it's so hard. I want you here with us where you belong. I know Heaven is wonderful and you're so happy but our hearts ache for you all the time. Why did it have to be this way? Why didn't the Lord heal you here and let us keep you for a long long time? I miss you so much Buddy. I miss everything about you. Everything! I went to Brooks wedding shower today and all I could think about is I will never see you get married. I'll never see you raise a family. I'll never be a Gee-Maw to your children. I know in Heaven none of that will matter anymore, but Buddy I'm not in Heaven yet and it matters to me now. Kayla, Sarah and Johnathan need their big brother here to take care of them. Amanda needs her little brother here to boss and love. Elijah needs his uncle B.J. to help him know how to grow up into a wonderful young man. Dad needs his son and I need my Buddy. How could Heaven have possibly needed you more than us?

I love you Buddy, I always have, I always will.

Love, Mama

I had to come back and tell you how much I love this site. It is so so so pretty and I can put my pictures that I borrowed Ha ! Love Kathy

I remember the first time I meet you guys. It was our first candle light service.Our pain was so deep that being we both had just lost our angels. Who would have thought four years later we would still be there for each other. We have seen alot come and go but we still hanging in there and draw strength from each other.Yes, friends are friends forever. We share one important thing OUR ANGELS !

God it is so so very hard sometimes but I know They are OK! So I can make it another day with friends like you guys.Love You very much Kathy

I remember all the times that me and B.J. and Daniel (our cousin) would hang out and just go walking around town or ride bikes. One time we went riding bikes and got a little carried away and rode almost 5 miles out of town. Then I had to be a little tattle tale and told my mom where we had been and needless to say, we did get in a little bit of trouble, but we did have fun doing it!

This memorial site was created in memory of Bobby Jack Outlaw II who was born in Fort Worth, Texas on May 17, 1984 and passed away on December 1, 2003 in Waco, Texas at the age of 19 yrs. My brother was like any other guy, he enjoyed basketball, football, street hocky, and yes even volley ball! Although his bones were not strong he loved playing around! He always had a positive attitude and even a hospital bed could not hold him. He was always giving people rides in his Orange Glitter Bug, as we called it. He sang on the praise team at church and now his sister Kayla has taken his mic and sings not in his place but in his memory. B.J. absolutely loved going toilet papering with a variety of friends! Two friends stick out more than any, Henry Vance and Stephanie Drake. They always had so much fun. My brother was always doing something crazy to get a laugh out of everyone. Having a postitive attitude all the time was like breathing to my brother. He never turned anyone down, no matter what the situation was, he always made extra time to tend to the needs and wants of others. On the Monday morning that was to be my brothers last, he was still in a better mood than I have seen many of people to be in. B.J. is not here now but I know that one day we will see him again! His mama and daddy miss him so much and love him with all their heart. His three sisters, Amanda is now out on her own with Chris and their baby Elijah, Kayla has her own house now and is trying to make the best of things, and his youngest sister Sarah keeps up with school, church and other activities. B.J.'s only living little brother Johnathan is grwoing up so fast and is finally in school. In heaven with B.J. are his two little twin brothers Wayne and Buck who we are all ready to see as well! B..J., Wayne, and Buck are missed and loved very much every day! Yes they are gone but not forgotten!

Buddy we miss you!
