~IN LOVING MEMORY~ STACY ANN BENVENISTI 3/31/1973-10/20/2006 They say time heals, yet they are wrong; A year has passed and still we mourn; The tears keep streaming, like a storm; Our hearts are bleeding, nothing warm; Yet we have faith we'll see you soon; Our God will raise you from your tomb. Taken from us, yet not sure why, He may be making certain, we'll all be standing by. We love you and miss you terribly, Rev. 21:4. With all our love, Mom, Dad, Lisa, Cortney, Jordin, Gloria and Billie. Stacy,we keep you tight to our hearts and thoughts every day of our lives. We Miss You So.... The thoughts of you and the way you touched each of our lives overwhelms me! Stacy...You were mommas "sleepy one" but she could always depend on you to get in there and get your hands dirty when she needed you most! You were the sleepy, whimsical, clover pickin sister that would give anyone the clothes off your back and many times did. The Three Musketeers we were...sisters and best friends...a four leaf clover will never be found again! Your life was tragically lost too soon, so we all cry and think about you to the moon. Mom always said that you were a lost soul. A lost soul that always found her way home! This time, you did not come home! It crushed mom beyond belief that her 2nd baby fell asleep. Momma will not be the same until her "sleepy one" awakes from the grave to pick her precious clovers once again. Dad was never one for words but his tears tell you everything you need to know...He tells the story of hugging you goodbye as a young girl before a field trip "Goodbye little Stacy Ann, I love you" Lisa feels as if her heart has been ripped out of her chest. Memories of good times and bad...her heart aches for more good times to be had! She sees you in her dreams and yearns for the day she can tell you how much you mean! She knows how important the sisterly bond is and will never let anything break that bond again. We love you and miss you so much! You were always the one I could turn to when times got rough with a non-judgmental ear and words of love. You can RIP knowing that your babies are safe and well taken care of. Your JoJo and Glowbug express that they love you and miss you bunches. "No worries Mommy...Auntie hasn't duct taped us yet! heehee We Love You" So rest well sleepy sister...We will see you again! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
