| Melinda Elaine Daniel August 30, 1980 ~ March 21, 2006 |
| Melinda Elaine Daniel was born a healthy 6 lb. 8 oz. girl on August 30th,1988 In Neosho, Missouri. She lived a good life filled with much joy and happiness. She loved her family very much and was a good devoted friend. She filled all our lives hearts with such love and joy. Her life was cut short at just the age of 17. She has been given countless miracles from God above. She is the strongest person I know and she never gave up. She was the type of person that everyone loved and she made fast friends with new acquaintances. Making people smile and laugh was something she loved. She cared about everyone and was friends with so many different people. Even after the accident she continued to touch lives. So many care about her and she cared about so many. She was a perfect Daughter, Sister, and Friend. The last 9 years have been a long and hard journey for her, and it has been filled with many Joys, Triumphs, and Sadness. But she never failed to touch the hearts of so many. I’ll never forget her smile. Her kisses she would give me before bed; the looks she would give me when I touched her face with ice; how she would wait for me and mom to get home from school and work. She was so beautiful, even down to the last second of her life. She taught us all something, whether it be how to love yourself, others, or life. Not to be scared, that God is with us, when we laugh he laughs, when we cry, he cries, when we feel lonely or hopeless, so does he. I’ll never forget when she taught me to swing by myself, to tie my shoes, ride my bike and so much more. We used to love to play superman. Even though mom was scared to death one of us would get hurt. She was not just a big sister but my best friend. We shared so many secrets, laughs, cry’s, and yes even fights. I look forward to the day I get to here her sing again, see her beautiful smile and to have her say “I love you Bubby”. I know she is Looking down at us right now thinking “I’m Ok”. She is still alive now. Alive in Christ and in our hearts. Her smile will be with us forever. It makes me happy to know that when I take my last breath on this earth, she will be there to take me home. Her Love for Life, for her family and friends will radiate for generations to come. Please, remember her by her smile, her laugh, her voice, her sense of humor, her love, and her legacy. She will live on in Our hearts and memories. Now when you go out and feel the sun shining down on you, remember: she is looking down from Heaven above smiling, laughing, and singing. Sissy you have your wings now, so Fly, Fly as far as the eye can see. I LOVE YOU. From my mother and I, we would like to thank from the bottom of our hearts everyone that has helped us through the years and to Sissy’s friends who helped to put this all together. |

| The Smile On Her Face Gave Her Such Grace She Looked So Pretty We Were In The City They Took Her Away As We Cry On That Sad, Sad Day The Funeral Was Soon One Hour Past Noon She Was Laid To Rest Looking Her Best In A Burgundy Gown Not Wearing A Frown But A Soft Smile On Her Face Life Is Not A Race To See Who Gets To The End But Death Is Just Around The Bend I’ll Always Look Up To Her No Matter What Happens She Is Lying In Peace Now Only Another Deceased Now The Love Of Her Heart Won’t Keep Us Apart It Holds Us Together Through This Rough Weather It Keeps Us All Going No Matter How Difficult It Is. “I LOVE YOU SISSY!” |
