Wilder Eulogy of Wade Lurk After seeing so many people pour into this church yesterday and today, I realized that in five minutes I can’t do justice to the life of such a very special person. Last night as people came through the line to express their sympathies, I heard many of them ask the question, why did it have to take so long to find him? I too felt that way. For a moment, I even felt bitter, asking God, why did you make us suffer so long? I prayed for an answer. It finally hit me. All the time that the hundreds of you helped searched for Wade, he was actually finding each of us. Just like he touched so many in his life, Wade continued to touch even more of us in his death. By the time Wade was found, he quite possible touched the lives of millions through his attention in the media and the chains of e-mail transferring from well-wisher to well- wisher across the world. What a blessing for someone so young. Over the past few weeks, I have come to know Wade even better then I could imagine. So many people have told us stories about him. What a wonderful kid he was to have been so young yet have touched the hearts of so many. Tina and Mike, your strength and faith in God and the Blessed Mother has been an inspiration to us all. Jordon and Brook it is going to be hard for a while. Please try to be strong. Your mom and dad will need you to be there for them now more then ever. Mom, dad, Jim, and Rosalee, remain strong in your faith. Do not give in to your grief over the loss of Wade. The rest of your grandkids still look to you for inspiration and strength. To all of Wade’s friends and family, especially you still in the prime of your life, please help us add meaning our loss. Remember Wade often. Think about those you love and let them know it every day. As Wade wrote in his high school year-book, “You only get one chance to live your life.” How painfully true that is. Please do not let Wade’s life have been for nothing. “Live [your life] the way you want to, enjoying every second.” But please don’t go down the same path that led us here today. Thank you all for such tremendous support over these past days and weeks. Our families are truly grateful. I love you Wade. --Uncle Jim njwildear@upes.com EntryNo: 1014 Date: Tuesday 22:55 17.04.2007 Rosalee Lurk Wade, It's been 1 year and it still doesn't seem real. We love you and miss you. You can be so proud of your Mom, Dad, Brooke and Jordan. Because of you, we've found out just how wonderful and kind people can be. You really are our special angel. Love, Gram and Grandpa Lurk <hidden> EntryNo: 1013 Date: Wednesday 07:01 12.04.2006 Mike Lurk I just wanted to let everyone know that the support all are showing on this site, other sites, during the search effort, visiting, etc, has made it so much easier on Tina, Jordan, Brooke and myself. It is just amazing to us to see how the Ste. Genevieve community has come together. Our thanks also go out to all those outside the community that have offered their prayers, helped to spread the word, and even travelled to assist in the search. It really makes us count our blessings. We are all hopeful for Wade's safe return. Keep up the prayers. Mike EntryNo: 1012 Date: Tuesday 01:59 18.04.2006 Michelle Doherty (Reynolds) As I was typing the lyrics of this song for a close friend of mine who's family also suffered a tragic loss this weekend, I couldn't get your family out of my mind and decided to also share the words with you. I don't know why tragic things have to happen, but I do know that as long as we put our faith in God he will comfort us and give us peace beyond anything we could ever imagine. Praise You In This Storm I was sure by now, God, You would have reached down And wiped our tears away, Stepped in and saved the day. But once again I say, "Amen," And it's still raining. But as the thunder rolls, I barely hear You whisper through the rain, "I'm with you." And as Your mercy falls, I raise my hands and praise the God who gives And takes away. And I'll praise You in this storm, And I will lift my hands, For You are who You are, No matter where I am. And every tear I've cried You hold in Your hand. You never left my side. And though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm. I remember when I stumbled in the wind. You heard my cry to You, And raised me up again. But my strength is almost gone. How can I carry on If I can't find You? But as the thunder rolls, I barely hear You whisper Through the rain, "I'm with you." And as Your mercy falls, I raise my hands And praise the God who gives And takes away. And I'll praise You in this storm, And I will lift my hands, For You are who You are, No matter where I am. And every tear I've cried, You hold in Your hand. You never left my side. And though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm. I lift my eyes unto the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, The Maker of Heaven and Earth. I lift my eyes unto the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, The Maker of Heaven and Earth. And I will praise You in this storm, And I will lift my hands, For You are who You are, No matter where I am. And every tear I've cried You hold in Your hand. You never left my side. And though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm. And though my heart is torn, I praise You in this storm. -Casting Crowns I pray that He gives you peace beyond all measure. n4squirqrels@chwarterv.net EntryNo: 1011 Date: Thursday 01:55 03.04.2008 Friend It's been 2 years and as I sit here looking at pictures and reading posted messages from the week you went missing it still doesn't seem real.

I continue to remind my children to be safe and to watch out for their friends. I'm sure Wade is watching out too ... I hope and pray that his family and friends are finding joy in their lives. EntryNo: 1003 Date: Tuesday 14:01 29.01.2008 Jana Griffin Hello. I am a mother of three, one about to turn 18 in 13 days. I really don't recall how I came up on Wade's home page but I just wanted to say my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you continue the day-to-day struggle of living your life "without" Wade. With my daughter about to turn 18, I have come to the realization she is almost full-grown and as a human being I have taken for granite soooo much where she and my other children are considered. As I read about Wade's story, I have made a solumn vow to get it right.. "that I only have this one chance" with my kids... EntryNo: 1002 Date: Thursday 00:42 22.11.2007 Friend Wow...here I am again sitting on the computer, looking at pictures of you, and wondering how you are. I miss you so much, Wade. It doesn't matter what happens during the course of the day something always brings me back to the thought of you. You're so important in so many peoples' lives. Please take care of those people. Please take of me. I love you. EntryNo: 1001 Date: Friday 23:56 16.11.2007 Jennifer Coleman I don't know why but Wade has been on my mind for the last two days. Even though I never met Wade, he has somehow impacted my life and touched my faith in God. Thank you, Wade for rekindling my belief. <hidden> EntryNo: 1000 Date: Sunday 18:36 21.10.2007 kim adams wade my daughter ashley giesler was a great friend of yours she misses u everyday not a day goes by that we don't think of u and your family every time i drive to gail and flicks house i think of u and your family. EntryNo: 999 Date: Monday 20:40 06.08.2007 Kirt Sonnee I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm 60 years old and when I was young and in school we did not have things like this to turn to, or did we even think of such ways to do these things. I hope this opens a lot of eyes for others and new and more ideas will lead us all to be safer in our one time world we get to live in. Kirt. wkirtspnen@cowmcastg.net EntryNo: 998 Date: Tuesday 22:51 10.07.2007 Susan Norwalk Dear Family Members and Friends, I'm so sorry for all....your agony defies words...I know because I lost my son from a devasting illness that took his life inch by inch. I'm not comparing grief or suffering or circumstances....I'm talking about the unspeakable horror of putting your own child in the ground before yourself.... For me, thinking I would never recover....could never recover, by putting one foot in front of the other each day .....doing whatever I was able to do each day, helped me to rejoin the life around me and suddenly, I was able to smile, get involved in things and had interests. That hollow pain never goes away, never leaves me....but I'm functioning and I'm able to have good times and most importantly, I can give and receive love from others around me. I know and pray that you can heal enough to look around and find all the things you have that are worth living for. God Bless! Susan Norwalk vjl9.bryadee@hobtmailk.com EntryNo: 997 Date: Monday 22:07 02.07.2007 Grand-Pa Wilder It been almost 15 months since someone bought Wade the alchol which eventually let to his death,I realize that only he himself decided to drink,but who ever you are i hope it bothers you till the day you are no longer on this earth.You would think that parents would have learned their lesson in this small town but it still is going on parents are still letting their kids drink just because you take their keys away doesn,t make it right. In closing look at you childs picture ,close your eyes and pretend that you are never going to see them again, no more weekley visits, no more phone calls, no more smiling faces and no more laughter, nothing but tears think about it real hard and maybe you will wake up. We have to do this every day for the rest of our lives for real. Hope you all can sleep good because we no longer can.

EntryNo: 993 Date: Wednesday 12:05 25.04.2007 Emilie Stowers Wade, It took me long enough to write something in here. I know i did a while back but i cant find it. anyways, me and laura always reminsce about the times at the bowling alley and the very first time me and laura both met you and she gave you her number. There was no way either of us thought that you would call her. Thats the night we were at Elizabeths and me and you started singing the Mac N Cheese song, those were some GREAT times, that was when i went to crystal and then you started making fun of me for moving to Farmington. you'll always be the greatest "gangster" at least you thought you were more gangster than me. but ill post something in here later. the bell is gettin ready to ring.

His life has made such a huge impact on the world and, in my case, the way i view the importance of life. His quote lives throughout so many people and has become the prayer before high school classes begin, the motto many of us strive to live by, and the little reminder in the back of our heads of why God has put us on Earth. Your family and Wade will be in my heart forever. usjalaxb90@exucite.hcom EntryNo: 991 Date: Wednesday 18:00 07.03.2007 Kerry To Wade's Family: I'm not exactly sure how I came across the homepage for Wade......but I've read the accounting of what happened to him. I have 2 older sons in their 20's...I don't know how they survived their teen years, honestly. I have one left at home who is almost 16 -- incredible young man. He also is an athlete and Christian. I have printed your Buddy Cards and I know, without a doubt, that my son will be proud to slip one into his wallet and pass them out to his friends. I will tell him the story of Wade's life and how the Buddy Card has came about. Wade will live on in taking care of other young men.

I have an 18 year old daughter fixing to graduate from high school and I worry about her every time she walks out the front door, she also just lost a friend of hers friday due to a car accident, he to was a great kid with his whole life ahead of him, and it just makes me more thankful everyday that I still have her with me, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. <hidden> EntryNo: 987 Date: Tuesday 22:12 30.01.2007 June Flynn I just wanted to extend my deepest sympathies to Wade's family. What happened to him was such a tragedy. As the mother of two teenagers, Wade's death deeply affected me and I think of him often. It is heartbreaking to me that he didn't even have the chance to attend his prom or graduate from high school. His was a promising life that ended much too soon. I am so, so sorry for the loss of your precious son. EntryNo: 986 Date: Wednesday 06:28 17.01.2007 Tracey Gossiaux I didn't know Wade, but my heart goes out to his family and friends for their terrible loss. I lost my best friend 11 years ago due to an accident where the person driving the vehicle he was in was intoxicated and passed a car on a hill, only to hit a van head on. I was supposed to be with them that night but changed my mind because I had a bad feeling. There isn't a day that doesn't go by that I don't go over the "What ifs" in my head. There isn't a day where I don't miss him terribly. Stay strong, remember Wade, and love him as he still loves you. <hidden> EntryNo: 985 Date: Monday 10:38 15.01.2007 Ashley Giesler Hey Wade!!! Well I just wanted to say Hi and I hope your having a great time. Everybody still misses ya so much. So I guess you heard about Shawn Hornbeck and William "Ben" Ownby. I was so terrified for Ben but then when they found both of them it was such a relief. It made me think of you and I though maybe you had watched over them two and prayed for them.

I don't know who said that, but in this case they were right. The report on TV 12 was wonderful and hopefully will do a lot of good. The buddy card system WILL help someone in the future and hopefully will save a life. Also I want to say thank you both for passing on the love to the kids at Valle and for inspiring others to step forward in wanting to do good. God's loving hand is at work and you can be so proud. I know that your pain runs deeper than I can imagine. All we can hope is that with tragedy comes good and it is happening all over. Peace be with you.

Wade touched the hearts of our family when he was missing. We read about him in the paper and then he was talked about at school (St. Charles, MO.) I am also a mother of 3, the oldest is a son who will get his license in Jan. I have printed off the budy cards and hope to share them w my son and his friends. What a wonderful idea you have come up with that could save others. For you to want to be involved in making other teens lives better, we parents commend you. Together with Wade, you are making a difference. I am glad to have his name printed on these buddy cards to remember him. May you find peace especially during these holidays.

I AM 25 AND HAVE A 6YR OLD DAUGHTER AND I CAN NOT IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT HER. THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO IMAGINE HOW HARD IT IS FOR A PARENT TO LOSE A CHILD, ESPECIALLY AT SUCH A YOUNG AGE AND SO UNEXPECTEDLY. IT BRINGS ME TO TEARS TO WATCH THE "BUDDY CARD" SEGMENT ON KFVS12.COM, AND TO I READ ALL OF THE HEART FELT LETTERS ON THIS WEBSITE. IM SURE WADES DEATH AND THE THINGS DONE IN HIS HONOR HAVE TAUGHT A LESSON TO ALOT OF PEOPLE,POSSIBLY EVEN SAVED SOME LIVES AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO. MY HEART GOES OUT TO YOU AND I WILL KEEP YOU IN MY PRAYERS. AND TO WADE, I DID NOT KNOW YOU, BUT FROM WHAT I GATHER YOU WERE AN AWESOME PERSON AND HAVE MANY FRIENDS AND RELATIVES WHO LOVE YOU ALOT.

I have a 10 year old son and when I read about your son first missing, my heart skipped a beat. I prayed he would be found save and unharmed. I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I can not imagine what you have been through nor what you are continuing to go through. I have a 10 year old son & I can not begin to imagine life without him. By the smile in the pictures of your son, it was obvious he was very much loved. That is the greatest gift any parent can give a child & it is very obvious that you all were able to supply that to him. Again, please accept my condolences. Peace to your family.

Wade and Ben were good friends and Ben misses him very much. I never had the chance to meet Wade, but I wish I had because of all that is said about him he must of been the greatest person in the world. Even though I never met him I was still scared to death because anyone of Ben's friends is a brother to me. Everyone misses him very much and everyone loved him. He'll always be in our hearts and our minds. He is Ste.Genevieve's gaurdian angel. I'm keeping you guys in my prayers. Chelsie EntryNo: 958 Date: Thursday 10:16 23.11.2006 Marissa G.

I never met Wade, Im pretty sure he played football, so we might have went up against each other at one point. Im a junior at Park Hills Central. Up untill I met Kelci Meyer{the greatest girl I think I'll ever meet}all I knew about Valle was that they won like a thousand state championships. Kelci really made me understand some of the impact that it had on his friends and family. I just can't imagine what everyone went through the days Wade was missing. I gotta lotta respect for everyone who still goes on after something like this happened. Cuz I know it would be hard for me to carry on with my life after a tradegy like this. Well this msg is gettin kinda long so I guess I'll end it. I know Brooke knows who I am,because of Kelci but Im guessing everyone else reading this doesn't. But tomorrows Thanksgiving,and I hope your guys' first one without Wade goes good. I never really sit down and think about stuff Im thankful for but after hearing Wade's story, I definitly will. I really do see things differently now-I can never go to or pass Goose Creek without thinking about what happened to Wade Lurk. -Alex Day- balex_doay@hoktmailn.com EntryNo: 955 Date: Wednesday 23:56 22.11.2006 Randy Bramlett My Son would have been 18 years old on January 6, 2005, but passed away at the trnder young age of 17, J.P. would have graduated from East Prairie High School on May 26th, 2005.

I find myself thinking about Wade and the whole incident every single day. It seems like no matter what I am doing at some point or another he crosses my mind. So many things left unsaid and so much confusion about what happened. Your family AMAZES me because I know that I am not that strong. Your family has to come together on this one and I see that you have. Seeing Jordan is almost like looking at Wade, hopefully he will grow to be just as successful. I love you Wade, please watch over me and be with me. Please watch over your own family and help them to see that you are still here and always will be.

Dear Mike and Tina, It should be easy to write and say that your family is in my prayers often... and that if, I a stranger think and pray about you often then rest assured the people who love you most are doing it constantly... even though in time, you may not always know it or feel it. They are... we are keeping you close. And so there, I've said it... and it only took 3 months. I smile when I think of Wade... a young man I never met, because all the notes on this sight happily leave me with no other choice. What a superior young man... funny, giving, caring, a great big brother, a solid, loyal friend to many, a respectful grandson, a loving son with a great smile... a great laugh... who gave great hugs... crafted from loving, caring, giving parents. I think of Wade often. I pray for your family often... that you may find strength in keeping Wade close in your heart and knowing that he is keeping you even closer in his.

We had a party with all your favorite food and we wanted to be happy, but it still didn't bring you back. I MISS YOU SO MUCH! Sometimes I think that I don't feel sad and I think I'm healing but it still hurts. It's always going to hurt. There will never be a day that I won't think of you. There will never be a day that I won't want to hug you. When you were missing, I was sure you'd be back. I couldn't wait to hear the stories you were going to tell us. I stared at your seat in Chemistry and waited for you to play footsies with me again, but it never happened. Sometimes the situation still hits me and I get shocked over and over. I can't believe you're gone. Of course you are in a better place now. This sounds horrible, but I know am not that scared to die because if I did I'd get to hang out with you. Remember when we had long talks on your hammock or in your room and we'd tell each other everything. . .actually you told me everything and I listened. . .remember how we always said we'd spend the night in the club house. . .well I finally did last night, with regan , allie, emily, katie, and brooke. WE got scared of the bugs, but we had fun. It would have been more fun with you there. I miss your corny comments and your giggle. I miss your advice and interesting thoughts. I missed you at school and I now I miss your weekly visits to my pool after you mowed lawns.It's interesting how everyone deals with your loss. Some people freak out when they're around anything of yours. Some get angry. Some hide their emotions when they are around me. I like it best when we remember happy moments of you. I like to look at pictures of you when you are the happiest. Wade, you were an amazing person on earth and your spirit is still amazing. You have touched so many people including myself. I admired your openness to be yourself and not give in to peer pressure. You wouldn't do something if you didn't want to. You set a great example. You lived your life so full. You were always doing something and you were always excited to do it which made other people excited for you. I feel blessed to have known you for 17 years. I couldn't have asked God for a better best friend. I truly cared about you and I feel a loss because you're not here. I miss you and you will always be remembered. I know I will see you again. Please wait for me.(cuz i'm begging you to be my escape) I love you so much Wade! wloida_om87@hoetmaild.com EntryNo: 924 Date: Tuesday 12:28 06.06.2006 Mary Lee Visnovske Tina, Mike, and Family, I have prayed every morning for you that God will give you strength today and everyday.

EntryNo: 922 Date: Sunday 02:19 28.05.2006 the Harlows We were on a family vacation in St. Louis in April and visited St. Genevieve where we learned of Wade's disappearance. I was so very saddened to learn what had happened and Uncle Jim's words brought me to complete tears just now. As a Chistian mother of three adopted children, I have learned that our kids are not ours really. They are but on loan to us from our Heavenly Father for whatever days He has directed. To be sure, there is purpose in the gift of parenting our children and even greater purpose in their lives here on earth. I'm so very sorry you did not have more time with your son here on earth and I pray God will strengthen and uphold you each day as your hearts grieve and as you wait to see him again.

I paused for a moment and asked him what he wanted to get but I was not prepared for his answer. He said that he wanted a cross on his shoulder with the letters SMBJR going down and WML going across using the same M on it. I asked him what did the WML stand for and he said Wade Michael Lurk. He told me that him and Wade were very close and this way Wade would always have his back. What could I say or do but help him draw it out without the puddles in my eyes smudging up the paper. I can't imagine what you all went through and I pray to God that I never have to find out, but I am thankful to know that Wade will always have Stephen's back. www.agelesslife.com/BeyatteS/ vsmbeyaqtte@brnennerhtank.com EntryNo: 919 Date: Wednesday 14:43 10.05.2006 Tammy Goddard I'm a mother of 3 young men.

The 17 year old plays soccer and that is how I came to know about Wade. I received an e-mail asking for people to be on the look out for Wade. So I forwarded it to as many people as I could including our oldest son who is a police officer in Austin, Texas. My sister-in-law works for a telephone company in the central Florida and she sent it to all who work with her! We had so many prayers out there for Wade and that he would be found safe and back home with his loving family. The news of his accident is so tragic, even for those of us who did not have the pleasure of knowing him personally. I just wanted to let the Wade's family know how truly saddened I am as well as so many others around the world!

And when i heard they found his body I prayed again to bring your family peace and comfort and love. When you lose a child it is the worst feeling in the world,my son was killed,and although they have never caught who killed him i am glad that you were able to bring peace to your family knowing that hes not somewhere else. when i learned about this sight i thought i would let you know that you are not without wade because he will forever be with you in memories. Even though im sure you didnt need to have me tell you.

We didnt know him that well but everytime we did see him he always had a big smile on his face. He treated everyone with the respect they diserved. You guys have one more Guardian Angel up there in heaven in Wade, that is guideing you in the right direction. Graduation for the senior will not be the same without him but he is watching over them. Also he will be watching over them at prom and helping them make right decisions. He was deepley loved by all the people in the community and nobody could believe what happened.

I watched the news every day when I heard that Wade was missing. I go to school in Kentucky, but I graduated from Ste. Gen. last year. I could not believe it when my mom told me about Wade being missing. I called her every day for updates and prayed and hoped that he would be found. I was so sad when I learened the news of his death. I did not know Wade, but I have friends that are good friends with him. I am hoping to put together some t-shirts in memory of Wade to keep him alive in everyone's hearts. He will be truly missed by everyone.

First of all, coming from myself and my family who are best friends with Tina and Mike, we are so blessed and we are so proud to be a part of this community. What a wonderful effort from this whole community!Whether it was help with the many search efforts, phone calls, cards, kind words and most of all YOUR MANY PRAYERS! I am very proud to say that we are from Ste Genevieve. To the Wilder family and the Lurk family-you began your children's faith as small children and you instilled the utmost importance of GOD and the faith you need to always have and that has been so obvious throughout this ordeal. Tina and Mike, as well as your other children, turned to their faith and our GOD and the Blessed Mary for strenght, love , guidance and support. So many would have turned against all of this with anger and because of their faith, this did not and will not happen.You deserve a huge acknowledgement for that!They are so lucky to have you as parents!Without their strong faith, this story would not be the same. Tina and Mike, I never in a million years would have thought we'd be where we are today with you. We have discussed lately the ups and downs at our age that we are probably going to go thru together and how we are so not looking forward to those times. This is not something we ever even discussed - who would have ever thought any of us would have to deal with the loss of a child. I want you to know that we are here for you any time of any day for whatever you may need. Our sadness for you and your family will never be gone. Our support and love for your family will never be gone. Our respect and love for Wade(he was like our own)will never be gone. He has, in his short stay with us, touched so many lives, young and old. Those younger looked up to him, those his age loved and respected him, those older adored him. On the saddest day of your life almost has to be one of the proudest moments. The people that waited 1-2 hours in line at church to pay their respects and ones who came to the funeral-it was a truly amazing sight and it makes you realize the love that Wade has spread around and all the good things he did. I think that he has done so many great things-more than many adults have. He will always hold a special place in our hearts and we will always love him. May God and Mary continue to give you the strength to carry on your lives. Your lives will NEVER be the same and neither will many others. We love you! (Your strength is inspirational to so many) Brooke and Jordan, Our hearts go out to you each and every day-we love you like our own so if there's anything we can do to help out-just let us know. Let your very own guardian angel guide you to do whats right and let him lead you down the right path-he will always be there for you.We love you! Wade's friends: You have been through a very tramatic time in your lives-PLEASE learn from this and make the right choices-PARENTS-PLEASE pay attention to your children-don't let them grow up too fast!Mike and Tina knew where Wade was at all times.Can you honestly say that about your children? BE THE ADULT-give a curfew and STICK to it.Mike and Tina did! May we all learn from this horrible experience as parents, friends, and kids. Wade was an extraordinary kid that loved life everyday and fullfilled himself with that life everyday. Who else can say that?

The Wehner's swehner@brkick.nmet EntryNo: 900 Date: Tuesday 12:49 25.04.2006 Richelle Zerwig This poem came to me in an email and I thought I would just share it. My thoughts and prayers are with the Lurk Family. "If tomorrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see, if the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me; I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today, while thinking of the many things, we didn't get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, and each time that you think of me, I know you'll miss me too. But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand, that an angel came and called my name, and took me by the hand, And said my place was ready, in heaven far above, and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away, a tear fell from my eye, for all my life, I'd always thought, I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for, so much left yet to do, it seemed almost impossible, that I was leaving you. I thought of all the yesterdays, the good ones and the bad; I thought of all that we shared, and all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday, just even for a while, I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile. But then I fully realized, that this could never be, for emptiness and memories, would take the place of me. And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow, I thought of you, and when I did, my heart was filled with sorrow. But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home, when God looked down and smiled at me, from His great golden throne, He said, "This is eternity, and all I've promised you." Today your life on earth is past, but here life starts anew. I promise no tomorrow, but today will always last, and since each day is the same way, there's no longing for the past. You have been so faithful, so trusting and so true, though there were times you did some things, you knew you shouldn't do. But you have been forgiven, and now at last you're free. So won't you come and take my hand, and share my life with me? So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, for every time you think of me, I'm right here, in your heart " May God watch over you and your family now and always. There is no right time to do the wrong thing. There is no wrong time to tell someone you care. yRZerwikg@ankpac.ccom EntryNo: 899 Date: Tuesday 03:20 25.04.2006 Lea Huffman Dear Lurk family, I too am a colleague of Tracy's here in Japan and member of the prayer group.

Wade's wake and funeral were absolutely beautiful. Even though we'll miss him terribly, I think his death has brought out so much good. Wade touched more lives in 17 years than most people do in 70 years. It's difficult to describe the sadness that we feel, but at the same time we are comforted by knowing that we have a special angel in Heaven looking out for us. I am so proud of Tina and Mike. My most fervent prayer was for God to give them the strengh they needed. Their faith and courage were an inspiration for us all. I can truly accept that there is a reason for Wade's death that we can't understand. But that doesn't take away the pain. Brooke and Jordan, know that we are here for you with all our love.

We are so very sorry for you loss and we will continue to pray for peace and strength for your family. Wade will not be forgotten. From everything I have read or heard about him, I have heard nothing negative. Wow, what an extraordinary person he was and what an extraordinary legacy he has left. I never met Wade but my husband and I both work and McDonald's and my husband waited on him a time or two and said that he was a very quiet and polite kid. My husband and I have one son who is 18 months old and we both were blessed to find each other but we never anticipated the most awesome love that we would feel when our son was born. It is a love that will take your breath away. I cannot imagine how it feels to lose a child but I want you to know that you're family is loved and that i know that Wade will always be with you all. My husband and I were talking about Wade yesterday and he told me about a childhood friend of Wade's and how Wade affected him. He said that when he moved to this town that Wade went to his mother and told her that "If your son needs a friend or someone to play with then you call me, oh and I also have a bike that he can ride." How powerful that story was to me. What a caring, giving, loving person he was. Not the typical teenager. I know that I don't know you or your family but I just had to share my feelings with you. I wish you comfort and many many blessings.

It makes me think of the song from the Dukes of Hazard "Were just good ole' boys, never meaning no harm........." It truly is a horrific tragedy. Oh, what a tear jerking, goose-bump giving terrible sad story. I am so sorry for the family, I know that the pain is uncompairable to anything else in this world. It is almost like you have no emotion until you have children. I know that After giving birth 3 months ago.

I write to you Wade because although you are not here physically I'm sure you are here. To your family I write this note to let you know that I too lost a brother, under different circumstances 14 years ago. I also lost a brother several years before the last one. I can tell you this, from my experience the pain does not go away, although with time it seems to lessen "a bit at a time". Time does not heal all wounds, it is what you do in the time that heals the wounds. In my experience with the loss of my brothers, each years apart I can tell you that I have had to go thru the Seasons of life as it were. It took me thru the first year of the loss, every season, every holiday, birthday, special days and Christmas. It can be difficult. It can also be reflective. I call it 'anticipatory greiving' meaning I anticipated and grieved the loss of not only what was, but what would never be. This can be very difficult, the tears will fall, and that's okay. You will cry for what appears to be no reason at all, when in fact it may have been a song you heard that made you think of Wade, or a child you see laughing on the street, like he did when he was younger, or even a grown up young man maybe just a little older, that you wish he would have been able to make it to that age. I believe that when our work is done here our soul leaves, no matter how or when. It can be difficult because we think that his work was not done here, no one but God and Wade know for sure. A friend of mine says that everyone in our live, and anyone who touches it falls into one of three catagories. They are here for a reason, a season or a lifetime. Wade was here for a reason for many of you in this family. He was hear for a season for others, as I read some of the notes I see he was here to make others happy, even being Santa at Christmas. What a great memory for those he did that for to have and cherish! Most of all he is here for a lifetime for his family and friends, because it was his lifetime, no matter the years, and he will always be here in your hearts and minds and that will keep him here for the lifetime, his and yours. God bless all of you in this difficult time. You will not get 'over this' you will get through it with the help of God, your friends and Wade's spirit that will always be with you. Trust me when I say that there are times when I feel the presence of that gentle spirit of my brothers and it is a comfort to me that cannot be described, and it will be for you also.
