Tribute to Momma, Daddy And Brad
Posted: 12-09-03 19:58pm

|
On december 10th, six years ago, three
wonderful smart loving people were taken
from this world cruely and left behind a
nine year old boy, and a 14 year old girl
to fend for themselves.
They were on their way to a huge
basketball tournament when they were hit
by someone who did not stop for the red
light and were pushed over the edge of a
cliff that had a sixty foot drop.
Six years ago I recieved a devastating
knock on the door by 3 police officers
that I will never forget. But it has
made us stronger and we will always
remember the parents that loved us so
much, did everything for us and helped us
fulfill our dreams. We will always
remember our brother who taught us both
how to skate so we were both on hockey
teams, how to play all the sports we were
both involved in and showed us just about
anything!
Six years later you have a 15 year old
young man who still plays all these sports
and is going to be a wonderful father and
husband someday. And ...You there is me.
A pregnanct 19 year old who misses her
family deeply but is assured that she will
meet up with them again someday and that
they are watching over us all.
 I love
you momma, daddy and brad, we will never
forget you. Every year we post a tribute
to you and we always will.
love always melissa and aj o'hara

Melissa that was so heartfelt, it made me
cry! You truly are an amazing woman to
have survived that, and I look up to you
for it. I look at you and know that I can
get past those rainy days. I truly hope
the best for you, and will keep you in my
prayers.
Much love,
vanessa

Wow, there is so much about people that I
dont know. I would never have guessed
that something like that had happened to
someone here on the boards, but I guess I
was wrong because it happens to everyone.
I guess I am being nieve. I am sorry that
has happened to you, and I am sorry that
you had to go through that. But I am glad
to know that you are holding strong and
that you and your brother are both
striving for the best in life, and not
looking down on this day. That is the
type of person that you son or daughter is
going to need as a role model. I am sure
that you parents are looking down on you
in awe. Good luck with everything this
next year and I hope that you accomplish
everything and anything that you set your
mind to. Good luck sweetheart!!

First of all, thank you guys, for being
there to support me today
jen - who cares what that guy thinks of
you! If he aint raven or someone you love
it doesnt matter.
Jennifer - no one took care of us, I went
to school and worked afterwards until 10
or 11 and then came home took care of aj
and did homework went to be and did it all
over again. We were on our own frow that
time on.

We stayed in the house that our parents
had owned for probably 6 months until I
figured out how we were going manage then
we moved into an apartment that parents
friend were renting out. So we stayed
there and we just moved from there last
week into our new place

Vanessa - hunni it wasn't meant to make
you cry but it is a touchy subject so I
can understand why you did. I bawled the
whole time I wrote it...Which was really
hard cuz I couldnt see the keys!  silly keys!
Anyway sweetie thank you for everything
you said, and the support you gave.
Melissa
im trying to catch up with everyone who
replied so if I forget someone just give
me a while i'll figure it out!

jennifer
it was pretty weird to keep everything
together by myself and like i've said
before I pretty much missed all the things
most teen girls get to do, but that was ok
because letting my brother, my only living
family member left, be taken away from me
was not an option and I refused to let it
happen. Thank you for your support!

liz -i really dont know what to say, you'd
think after six years of people saying
they're sorry and that i've been brave
that I would catch on and figure out what
to say, but I really havent got a clue
except to say thank you for being here for
me and your support much love melissa
