A Letter to Thaddeous

Jessica Pearl 1985 (woonsocket)



WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US?
WAS THERE ANYTHING WE COULD NHAVE DONE?
WHY SO EARLY, YOU WERE SO YOUNG?
YOU HADN'T EVEN BEGUN TO LIVE LIFE YET?
WE HAD PLANS, THINGS WE WERE SUPPOSED TO DO.
THINGS THAT WILL NEVER GET DONE, BECAUSE THEY WON'T BE THE SAME.
ARE YOU HAPPY?
IS IT BETTER, NO MORE PAINFUL SEIZURES?
DO YOU MISS US, CUZ WE MISS THE HELL OUT OF YOU?
IT IS SO HARDN TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING, BUT WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN.
I HOPE YOU HAVING FUN PLAYING WITH YOUR MOM.
YOU WILL BE FOREVER IN OURN HEARTS.
FOREVER MISSED, WE ALL ARE DEVASTATED LOSING YOU, BUT THROUGH LOVE WE EILL EVENTUALLY BE OK.
NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW YOU LIKE WE DID.
YOU WORKED HARD AND STOPPED AND DRINKING TO BE A BETTER ROLE MODEL FOR THE KIDS.
SO FUNNY, YOU ALWAYS NEW HOW TO MAKE A BAD DAY BETTER.
WE WILL FOREVER MISS YOU.
SO FOR NOW WE SAY, "SEE YOU LATER, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN".
WE LOVE YOU.
