Could It Be Any Harder
Performed by The Calling

Fade away, fade away, fade away uh huh

You left me with goodbye and open arms
A cut so deep I don't deserve
You were always invincible in my eyes
The only thing against us now is time

Could it be any harder
To say goodbye and without you
Could it be any harder
To watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day

I lie down and I blind myself with laughter
A quick fix of hope is what I'm needing
And how I wish that I could turn back the hours
But I know I just don't have the power

Could it be any harder
To say goodbye and without you
Could it be any harder
To watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day

I'd jump at the chance
We'd drink and we'd dance
And I'd listen close to your every word
As if it's your last
I know it's your last
'Cause today, oh you're gone

Could it be any harder
To say goodbye and without you
Could it be any harder
To watch you go, to face what's true
If I only had one more day

Like sand on my feet, the smell of sweet perfume
You stick to me forever, baby
I wish you didn't go, I wish you didn't go
I wish you didn't go away
To touch you again, with life in your hands
Couldn't be any harder...harder...harder

Fade away, fade away, fade away uh huh





This is Kristen with her mom.





Some things that Kristen really loved were music, animals and especially dogs, and pizza.





Kristen worked as a supervisor at a local movie theater for a time.



This is a loving gift to Angel Kristen from my dear friend, Carol, mom to Angel Michael.


And this is also from my dear friend, Carol, mom to Angel Michael.




She also worked in the youth ministries at Chandler Christian Church.







This is Kristen with her younger sister Leslie, when they were both alot younger.




On the left is Leslie all grown up, with her prom date, and on the right is Kristen's little brother, Matt.



While Kristen was attending Chandler-Gilbert Community College at the age of 18,
she was killed in a tragic car accident on November 13, 2002.



"Kristen was a member of my Psychology 101 class and was an excellent student. She obtained exceptional grades and was a regular contributor to our class discussions. She seemed to set high goals for herself and she consistently met these standards through the effort she put forth in her classes. She will be greatly missed," said Tom Loschiavo, Psychology 101




"Kristen was a wonderful girl. She always had a smile on her face and never complained.
She was a great friend in class," said classmate Amy Harmon.





Do You Know What's On The Other Side?

Do you know what's on the other side? A sick man turned to his doctor as he was leaving the room after paying a visit and said, "Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what's on the other side." Very quietly the doctor said, "I'm not sure."

"You don't know? You, a Christian man, don't know what is on the other side."

The doctor was holding the handle of the door, on the other side of which came a sound of scratching and whining. As he opened the door a dog sprang into the room and leaped on the doctor with an eager show of gladness.

Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice the dog? He had never been in this room before. He did not know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was in here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear. I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing: I know my Master is there, and that is enough. And when the door opens, I shall pass through with no fear, but gladness."

I Can Only Imagine
Performed by Mercy Me

I can only imagine what it will be like
When I walk by Your side
I can only imagine what my eyes will see
When Your face is before me
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for You Jesus?
Or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in Your presence?
Or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine when that day comes
And I find myself standing in the Son
I can only imagine when all I will do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory
What will my heart feel?
Will I dance for You Jesus?
Or in awe of You be still?
Will I stand in Your presence?
Or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing hallelujah?
Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship You
I can only imagine.




To Kristen's Family
I would love to share this poem with you..
One of many written by my ANGEL Lee


CORE

Softness of the skin
Sweetness in the smell
Nectar of the fruit
Tender in the heart
Dancing in the eyes
Uplifting in the smile
Tickle of the touch
Joining in the love

Truth in the speech
Love in the laughter
Primal in the scream
Soft in the whisper
Quick in the mind
Fair in the sentence
Brave in the confrontation
Joining in the love

Graceful in the sleep
Careful in the search
Deep in the sorrow
Strength in the sickness
Giving of thy self
Rich in the health
Kind in the giving
Joining in the love

In Remembrance of a Very Special Girl
Kristen


My soul will find no peace until my child is back with me
Together once again in our eternal destiny
When I depart to go back home to my everlasting rest
And there I’ll find the part of me that was my very best
With Love and My Deepest Sorrow
Ann, Laurasmom (c) 2006


For Kristen


What a lovely angel you must be
You left so soon, your spirit set free
You are being held in the Palms of God's Hands
No one knew that these were His plans
Angel Kristen, but a moment away
One day your mom will be with you to stay
With Love and My Shared Tears And Broken Heart
Ann, Laurasmom


Kristen's Mom
Your lovely little girl always touches my heart. I just had to make this little gift for her beautiful webpage.
For now there is sorrow but there will be joy in the morning. I am inspired by angels
With Love
Ann, Laurasmom
