Ten Years...

I can’t believe that ten years have gone by since my
sister Alejandra (Alex) passed away. January 27, 1999 it was a snowy winter
day that I never thought I had to face. Today I remember her and miss her,
but I carry her in my heart. I miss you so much Alejandra!



Sisters till the End

We used to talk
We used to fight
We used to laugh
We only had each other

I always thought you’ll be right there
You where so strong and I was not
I wish you where still here
And everything was the same

May be not today but
We will meet again someday
It won’t be long until I see your face again
In Heaven that wonderful day


God only takes the best

God saw that she was getting tired
And a cure was not meant to be

So he put his arms around her
And whispered "come with me"


With tearful eyes we watched her suffer
And watched her fade away


Although we loved her dearly
We could not make her stay


A golden heart stopped beating
And a warm loving heart to rest


God broke our hearts to prove to us
That he only takes the best
Unknown


We miss you so much!

  1. Hey Ette,

    I didn't know you when you were going through this time of your life but I heard from Holly and Teresa about how lovely Alex was and I know that you miss her more than you could ever describe to anyone. I read the poem and you may not think that you are strong but in my eyes you are one of the most strongly determined people I know! Love ya
