Boyfriend. / Alicia Quintana (cousin)
Hey, Katherine. I miss you soo much! It's been way to long...I know I haven't been going on this for a while, It's kind of sad for me to see you again, knowing your not there. But, I always know you WILL be there. You're in our hearts. Thats what counts. So Is Grandpa. He's with you, wherever you are. You can be anywhere; Maine, France, England, Mexico...You can even be in Huntington Beach (hopefully you are.) I love you and miss you Katherine. One day we will see eachother again. Well, the title of this-Boyfriend- is because of what happened to me; I have a boyfriend. His name is Jonathan. He's really nice. I trust him and he trusts me. He's been through so much it almost made me cry when he told me, and he said he didn't want to hear I felt bad for him, so, of course I didn't tell him. But Katherine, please watch mine and his back. I know your always with me. I'll always be with you.
Love,
Alicia

missing you like as if i were some fool.

you've been gone from this family for almost 3 years now.

i dont feel you around me and much as i used to,
are u still here to watch over me?
are u still there to help tell me what to do?
im loosing you, cant you see.?

loosing you was bad enough
then loosing papa made it tough.

without you guys here.i wonder how im gonna make it.
when im outside or at school..my attitude..ya i have to fake it

on the plus side people are not longer telling me to get over you.
because we all know thats something i or anyone can do.

wishing only wounds that heart
telling them i wasnt ok because you were gone wasnt smart

another angel in Heaven  / Gillian Brill (stranger)
I didn't know you, but your cousin Alicia, wrote a tribute on my cousin Alicia's page. They share the same name,( first and last) which is truly ironic. 
You and my cousin Alicia were both way too young to pass....It seems so unfair, and we are all left behind wondering why you were taken from us. I wish your family and friends comfort and peace and may you continue to watch over them..

Poem / Alicia Quintana (Cousin)

Heres some poems.
For the best cousin the world.
I love you.
Rest in peace.

Poem#1
I thought I saw your face today,
in the sparkle of the morning sun.
And then I heard the angel say,
"Their work on earth is done."

I thought I heard your voice today,
then laugh your hearty laugh.
And then I heard the angel say,
"There's peace dear one at last."

I thought I felt your touch today,
in the breeze that rustled by.
And then I heard the angel say,
"The spirit never dies."

I thought I saw my broken heart,
in the crescent of the moon.
And then I heard the angel say,
"The Lord is coming soon."

I thought that you had left me,
for the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say,
"They left you with their love."

I thought that I would miss you so,
and never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say,
"They're with you every day."
"The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars,
will forever be around,
reminding you of the love you shared,
and the peace they've finally found. 

Poem #2
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey:
From childhood to maturity
and youth to age;
From innocence to awareness
and ignorance to knowing;
From foolishness to desecration
and then perhaps to wisdom.
From weakness to strength or
from strength to weakness
and often back again;
From health to sickness
and we pray to health again.
From offense to forgiveness
from loneliness to love
from joy to gratitude
from pain to compassion
from grief to understanding
from fear to faith.
From defeat to defeat to defeat
until looking backwards or ahead
We see that victory lies not
at some high point along the way
but in having made the journey
step by step
a sacred pilgrimage.
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey;
A sacred journey to life everlasting 

Poem #3

Since I've known you,
I've respected you,
Since I've respected you,
I've loved you.

Because you are gone,
I will now love your spirit.
Your voice speaking to me as a child,
forever rings through my soul.

Seeing you so tired, I asked you to go.
I never thought you would listen to me.
You always had a mind of your own,
but now I am happy because you are at peace.

It makes my heart soar to think
you could be dancing with grandpa,
dancing in the stars.

Thank you cousin for caring for me.
Thank you cousin for listening to me.
I will cherish you forever,
and you will always live in me. 

Poem #4
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep

I am a thousand winds that swiftly blow.
I am the diamond glint
on newly fallen snow.
I am the sunlight
on ripened grain.
I am the soft and gentle autumn rain

When you wake from sleep in the early morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft, starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

~~I love you, Kat~~

Sweet Angels Date July 23rd.  / Sonia Michalak

I will not be far away, for life goes
So if you need me, call and I will come,
Though you can not see or touch me,
I will be near, and if you listen with
Your heart, you will hear,
All of my love around you,
soft and clear.

School almost out!  / Alicia Quintana (Cousin)

Hey Katherine. School is going to be out tomorrow (Friday) and I cant wait. I'm going to the desert house with my family again, although It's boring there and I don't want to go. I still miss you. Im reading a chapter book called "Telling Christina Goodbye". It's based on a true story. I've already read it twice, and this is the third time. Everyday I have my eyes glued to the words in that book, since It reminds me of you so much. It has somehting to do with a car accident, and It's sad, trust me. I cried every time I read it. Well, I wish your summer up in Heaven is wonderful and Grandpa has a wonderful one too. Tell him I said Hi. Also, Katherine, I have a feeling that one day I will see you again. But I will not be dead, I will be alive, and you will come down to Earth to say all the things you needed to say, to do all the things you needed to do, and to hug us all for the last time. I will alway and forever miss you and love you, Katherine.
Love,
Alicia

Katherine, I miss you so much.  / Alicia Quintana (Cousin)
Katherine...I never thought of your name the way I am now..Your name used to be here and heard all over the cuty you lived in, but now it may never be heard again. I cant believe your gone. It makes me so sad to know your gone and I wont see you ever again until the day I pass on. After grandpa died, I was sad, but to be honest not as sad as I was when you died. I miss grandpa alot, and how he cried when my Mom, Dad, Sister, sisters friend, my friend, and grandma sang him Happy Birthday. But now hes up there with you, and hes happy. Hes very happy to see you again, To see his grandchild be there in Heaven with him. Im 10 years old now, in case you didnt know, and If I had a chance I would have given you an invatation to my party...I almost did, but then I remembered-You wouldnt ever read it, even If I did send it to you. I could have sent it to Heaven, but that would've taken too long and my party would have been already done before you could get it. Katherine, I miss you so much and I wish you were here. Not even words can brin you back. Not 5,000,000,000,000,000 tears or anything could bring you back. We could only see you in our heart,dreams, and thoughts. I love you Katherine. And from now on I will not only think of you, but believe it or not talk to you. You may not reply, but at least I know you could hear me.
Love,
Alicia Quintana. Rest in peace. Close
