Raven was born to my husband Padrick and I on Tuesday August 10, 1993 at Lenior Memorial Hospital in Kinston, North Carolina. I'll never forget the day I found out that I was pregnant with her. I still have my pregnancy test from that wonderful day. We were so excited, and looking forward to being parents. When Raven came into our lives, we couldn't have imagined anything better. She had the best personality ever, and a smile that could light up a room in seconds. She was just precious, and as she grew, so did our love for her. She loved to sing and dance. She loved to play sports, soccer was her favorite. She also loved to spend time with friends, and hardly ever missed a day of church as she loved the Lord. She loved her cats, and she made sure they were always taken care of. Raven loved sleeping in on Saturday mornings and eating cold pizza for breakfast. She could put down an 8 pack of cinnimon rolls all by herself. Even at 16, she still watched Spongebob and drank juicy juice boxes. God blessed us to have her here in this world for 16 years, 5 months and 14 days. Everyday with her was a joy and a pleasure. On Sunday January 24, 2010 Raven was out riding 4-wheelers with friends, something she'd done numerous times before, but this day was different. As Raven approached a curve at an excessive speed, she lost control of the 4-wheeler she was driving, and died as a result of her injuries. As my husband and I raced to the scene after recieving the call of her accident, we never dreamed what we'd soon discover. I can't even begin to describe the degree of loss and heartache we have endured in her absense, but it is our desire to make sure that the world never forgets that she was here. We will spend the rest of our days carrying her memory every where we go, and in everything that we do.

I am so sorry for your loss a lot of people knew that she was a good person even me
ReplyDeleteShe was a wonderful person - so full of life. Her loss was and still is felt. The hardest thing a parent will ever do is bury their child. Praying for you.
