| ETERNAL FLAME IN MEMORY OF OUR LOVED ONES |
In Loving Memory
A.C. Lawrence
3-30-1972
to 6-25-2002
Although space on this page is reserved for those lives lost to drugs or alcohol, I wanted to add A.C. here. A.C. died
from a motorcycle accident, not drugs. He did, however overcome an addiction a year before he died, and like Ricky (pictured
below), his birthday and John's heaven date are the same. Congratulations, A.C., on overcoming your addiction, and may your
Mom find some peace in knowing that you died doing something that you loved.
Al was on the motorcycle trip of his dreams.
He
was recreating the road trip from the movie
"Easy Rider" when, on June 20, 2002, he was involved in a serious motorcycle
accident.Sadly, Al passed away on June 25, 2002
Please click on A.C.'s picture above to visit his website. Be sure to sign the guestbook while you are there.
The following poem was submitted to me by Carol, mother of Ricky Waehler, Jr. You see, Ricky was worried about how the
world would view him, and my John often said the same thing. These were good kids with an illness, and they should not be
viewed any other way! John, like Ricky and countless others, wanted to be known for the good people that they were, not
for the addictions that took them away from us. This poem was put on Ricky's mass card, and I will now print it here,
in dedication to Ricky, John, and all the others that have lost their lives to this illness of drug addiction.
DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF
RICKY K. WAEHLER, JR.
MARCH 30, 1982-JUNE 04, 2002
I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one
I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo whispering soflty down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and
sunny days
I'd like the tears of those who grieve
to dry before the sun
of happy memories that I leave
when
my life is done
Carol, this one's for you. If Ricky could talk to you now, this is what he would say. "Somewhere" is heaven, and someday
you will meet him there. Please take comfort wherever and however you can. Know that Ricky is not suffering anymore, he is
at peace. God will grant you the serenity to accept what you cannot change. We will never get over the loss of our sons, but
we must accept it, for we have no choice. Here are the words to the song that brings you comfort. May God be with you, and
Ricky will live forever in your heart, until you find "Somewhere".
SOMEWHERE
There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open
air
Wait for us somewhere
There's a time for us
Some day a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time
to learn time to care
Some day
Somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
We'll find a way of forgiving
Somewhere
There's a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we're halfway there
Hold my hand and I'll take
you there
Somehow
Some day
Somewhere

For My Son
Few words can describe the love I have for you,
Today and always my love will hold true.
Jimmy, I miss how we shared hopes and dreams,
I know you are still around me, or so it seems.
You made me laugh, you made me smile,
You brought love into this world, if only for awhile.
My son, I love you now and forever,
Death cannot erase what we shared. Now or ever.
Peace is now yours, my son.
God holds now, a precious one.
With all my love,
Mom
Jimmy did not die of a drug overdose, but he battled an addiction to drugs
for most of his life. He was murdered. Please visit his mother, Peggy's website in his memory, where you can view other original
poems by Peggy, dedicated to her son. Click on Jimmy's picture above to visit the site.
The following names were submitted by Erica, who is a recovering heroin addict. She would like to remember
her friends, who lost the battle.
