In Loving Memory of Brianna Noel Strickland March 26, 1991 - April 5, 2000 My Little Angel, Age 6. This is Brianna at age 9. This was her last photo. It was taken March 29, 2000. This photo, like Steven's, was never seen by her and brought to me in the hospital after our accident. It was as if they were sending us something to hold onto in our time of need. Thank you to Rose Mary for creating this beautiful angel picture for Brianna. This is a beautiful and loving gift for Angel Brianna from my dear friend, Carol, mom to Angel Michael. For Just A Moment By Brenda Penepent For just a moment I'm sure I saw a flicker of light ahead. Perhaps it was your smile. Though past now, remembered, in my heart like the small sound of a butterfly passing by. No night is so dark that can not be brightened with memories of you. Raindrops carry along your blessings from heaven to wash away my tears and bring me hope anew. Brianna at age 7 months. Brianna at age 2. You are the winds that blow, You are the diamonds in the snow, You are the sun that melts my pain, You are the gently autumns rain. You are the graceful bird in flight, You are the stars that shine at night, You were the heartbeat of my life, I wish you weren't gone.but here instead. We have you as an angel now. Blessed by the peace you bring. And.although I cannot see you. I can feel the brush of your wings. You bring me light in darkness And calmness in times of fear. And hope lives in the knowing That you are always near. Author Unknown Brianna at age 4. Brianna at age 6, in first grade. The photo on the left is Brianna with one of her two best friends, Katelyn. And the photo on the right is Brianna with her other best friend, Caitlyn. Notice the similar name and ironically both of their mother's names are Tina. Gone are the days we used to share, But in our hearts you are always there, The gates of memory will never close, We miss you more than anyone knows, With tender love and deep regret, We who love you will never forget. Let it not be said my life was in vain, I've just moved on to a higher plane. So I can keep better watch over you, As you move on like you need to do Though this life has reached an end, I'm waiting for you around the bend. I beg you please don't weep for me! It's not so bad for soon you'll see, That I will linger long past this sunset, In the hearts of you who love me yet. ~ Author unknown This is Brianna and I at one of her school Christmas plays. Isn't she beautiful? Our family circle has been broken, A link gone from our chain; But though we're parted for awhile, We know we'll meet again.
