A prayer in respect of a lost loved one....

This came as a shock to me today. A yound lady age 16, who rides horses with me and Kristi and was such a wonderful person, passed away.

The story.
She loved horses, dogs, rabbits, you name it she wanted it and loved it. Kindest of heart, beautiful and intelligent young woman. Had the prettiest brown curly hair and deep dark eyes. That smile could brighten anyones day. She learned to ride with us, rode with us all the time. LOVEd to groom, pet and do whatever she could to get a chance to go riding. We would trail ride from Kristi's house all the way to mine, pick up Sassy and ride back. Swim with the horses and joke around.
For soem reason she thought she needed to go on a diet. THe girl could have been a model to begin with! SO in school she had a seizure. very shockingly. She was rushed to the hospital, and no cause could be determined why it took place so suddenly when she's never had one before.
That night when she got home, she was afraid to go to sleep. She stayed up all night long convinced that if she went to sleep, she wouldn't wake up. TIme rolled around for her to go to school so she took a quick shower. The bus came, and her brother banged on the door for her to hurry up, but there was no answer or noise, but the running water....
The 11 year old brother got scared thinking she had another seizure and broke down the bathroom door. What he found was her slumped in the tub. The ambulance came, but there was nothing they could do.


A wonderful soul was lost. Such a young a beautiful person. Krystal Fulkerson will forever be missed, loved, and though of.
Krystal, every time we ride, you'll be right there with us!

Tomorow will be the funeral. In her respect, we will ride with an un manned horse. Gottago was her favorite and will ride along side us saddled and unmanned. She will be burried in full official FFA attire.
God bless you sweet angel. We love you!

"Goodbye"
by Penny

God took you away.
It doesn't seem fair,
but in the back of my mind,
you will always be there.

You weren't a close friend,
but our paths did cross,
and your absence in this world,
is to me a great loss.

You were too young to die, and
too innocent to feel that pain.
Only heaven benefits,
because you it has now gained.

I may think of you a little less
with each passing day,
but your strength is something I won't forget,
you have changed me in a way.

I wish for you eternal peace;
that's what you deserve my friend.
I hope I lead my life well enough
to meet up with you in the end.

 

Sam I am sorry to hear about this young lady. That is a very thoughtful thing you are doing for her funeral.

 

Sam I am very sorry for the loss of your friend. It sounds like you guys have a wonderfull tribute planned for the service.

Sharon that was a wonderfull poem.
