Missing you very much. This time has been very hard for me, but going through all the letters, cards and pictures you made for me, delights my heart by sparking positive memories.

You were the best daughter and Sister a family couple ever ask for. ❤️

I miss the times you would come to visit me. You always made me so happy 😊

Such a natural in front of the camera.  I love you dearly. Its been very hard trying to go on without you. Mommy loves you 💗

You were the best big sister anyone could ask for.

I remember this day like it was yesterday.  I remember buying you this headband at the Westminster Mall.  You were my best friend.  I will forever be missing you! 
Mommy

Your love for Animals was amazing.  I know you, Tortilla and Master Twitch are looking down on us. 
Missing you 😢

Your Smile lit up a room and brought happiness to others. My beautiful princess 👸

As I cry in bed this morning I think to myself you would have been 34 Earthly years old. All the fun we could've had, but I know that is selfish. You are free from pain and  suffering.  With our Lord Jesus Christ.  I love you soooo much ❤️

You always lit up a room. You were a gift from God. You will always be my sunshine 🌞 Shining down from me in heaven.

I remember you visiting me during COVID. I have never loved or been loved so much 💔 
I miss you 😔

You were always there for family times. I genuinely think you were the most unselfish empathetic woman I have ever met.

You were always so happy to be a big sister.  You loved your brothers so much.  You would do anything for them. I know you are looking down on us with this beautiful smile. See you later. 😘

I remember this picture like it was yesterday.  Its very painful living without you 💔

You were  the best daughter a mother could ask for.  I miss your innocence.  Your smile just everything about you.  ❤️

I miss you so much. I know you are with the Lord in which has been confirmed to me time and time again. 
Mommy will see you soon
 Also thank you for the gift. Its on its way. 
Love you 😍

Mommy loves you so much. This was at the Santa Barbara Zoo. I was soooo happy. God blessed me to be your mommy.

Tenesha, not a day goes by where I don't think about you. Whenever a small victory is won, a enlightenment achieved, a goal accomplished, I know I couldn't have done them without your past help.
Whenever and whatever I do, I take your guidance with me and will always strive for better change in myself.

You're loved and missed by many ❤️

I miss you sooo much. I cherish the  memories of you . You were the best daughter a mother could ask for. ,❤️❤️❤️❤️
 Wish you were here. Blink 182

​❤️​ to “ I remenber all of us in my chrysler going down the road. Tenisha was in the back seat and wanted a drink out of my water bottle. I gave it to her. When she was done she gave it back. I opened  it up and took a big ole swig. It tasted and smelled like Big Red chewing gum. When I looked at the bottle I saw a huge wad of chewing gum at the bottom.   Everybody laughed at me when I reacted in surprise and said, what the hay!? ”

Mommy misses you and love you very much ❣️ I'll always remember how much you loved animals. 💕 RIP see you soon 🔜

Here’s a picture of you in front of the movie theaters at Jordan Landing, Utah. You and your dad went to watch a movie and I took some pictures of you before you guys went in. We miss you so much and wish we had more time with you.  Rest in love and paradise, beautiful  🕊️🧡💛🕊️

I miss you terribly and I can’t wait to see you in the next life🖤

I went through all these pictures and loved sharing the memories with Grandma and Alex. You will forever be in our hearts ❤️

My two green eye baby's  Tenesha and her brother Angel

Coming up on a year and still can’t believe you’re gone.  I miss you so much it hurts.  
Love Dad ❤️

Here’s a  picture of you, your dad and brothers. You all have his beautiful green eyes. Angel misses you so so much. We all do. 
Rest in love. 🧡🕊️🧡🕊️

You're now with God in your glorified body.

When Aunt  Bonnie meant you, she new instantly you were a "Ricks". The genes are heavy in our family.

You are the best sister a brother could have ever asked for your brothers. Miss you so much. I love you very much.

I remember we just got back from Michigan. You are such a beautiful spirit and you still are. May God bless you and keep you.

You're so beautiful!  Everyone said we were twins.

Remembering your blink 182 concert. Wish you were here. When I talked to you in rehab I told you how much that song reminded me of you and I was so happy to be able to have the money to afford you, your first and only concert. Rest in God's arms because you are his child and have been redeemed.

I remember when this picture was taken you were in the kindergarten and you had a friend in which you borrowed a jacket. I remember waiting for you to come out of school everyday and talking to your friend's father about how much he thought you look like me and I see it. God blessed me with a beautiful daughter.

I miss you so much. Mother's Day will never be the same without you.

I love this picture of you, Tenesha. You looked so pretty that day that I could not take my eyes off of you. I remember telling you how beautiful you looked all throughout the day because you were. 
I took this pic of you when we went to the South Town mall, here in Utah. I’ll never forget how much you were glowing. I just wish we had more time with you. We miss you so much … Rest in love 🧡

I prayed to God last week that God would give me a sign that I raised you in communion with a relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord  and Savior. I prayed for a sign  that your name was written in the book of life.. 
On the same day I thought  i wish I could've  released a dove in your honor at your ceremony. But unbeknownst to me; The holy Spirit whispered silently in my ear to take the day off from work. While  in route to taking your brother to  his job: My prayers were answered as Indy captured this picture in which can only be described as a dove!!! What a beautiful sentiment to how Christ can give us peace.!!!!
Mommy Loves you forever.  See you in heaven, my beautiful angel.

Found this old picture of us and still can’t believe you’re gone. I wish you were still here. I miss you so much. 
Love Dad ❤️

We always went early year. I miss you soooooo.  I can't bare to go without you.

Mommy

I love you so much. You gave me hope when I had none. You were more than just a blessing, you were my prayer come true. Mommy misses you everyday 💕

You are the best sister anybody could have asked for. The best daughter in the world. Until we meet again. Love, Mom.

Tenesha, may your soul embrace the ever lasting joy, peace and love of God.  You've brought happiness, growth and wonderful beautiful memories with the lives you encountered here on earth. Truly does it feel the end of days when we lost your bright eyes to soon.

You will never be forgotten Tenesha, thank you for the time you have given me, as there already was apart of you in me, there will forever be.

Mamma misses you always. Every day God gave you to me as a gift. You were my prayer come true. I will always be grateful for the time we shared. 
Love mommy

Just cherishing our moments with you  & wish we had many more Christmas’s with you. Love you forever baby girl.
Love Dad ❤️

I have so much to say to you  my princess. Your birthday was celebrated. We got  the Simpsons donuts from 711. Your favorite!, We remembered the special  moments you brought to us in your youth. We laughed  at your silliness and cried about your struggles. The  memories we will forever have.  I am at peace that You are with the Lord looking down on me awaiting my presence!! Love 💕 
Mommy

My daughter,  it has been so hard to write this. I feel very conflicted.  Vengeance is mine says the Lord. So, I am at peace with that.
When I met you half way in Vegas, I found you right away sitting  there day dreaming, I will never forget the smile on your face when I called out your name. The most precious hug in my life.  We were one again.  My seed., My flesh. A received prayer from God. My ❤️.
  From the first time I laid eyes on you as a baby, I knew love for the first time. You blessed me with years of laughter, joy, and excitement. 
As we stayed in Vegas at the Hotel, God blessed me with the honor of holding u close to me as we laid side by side,  caressing  your new grown out hair. The smile on your face when I gave you the  gold Bracket,  the genuine laughter, we shared just like old times. God granted me a last moment with you. I will never forget the look in your eyes when you said, ,"thanks for not judging me," you were the best daughter a mother can ask for. It hurt me seeing you so broke that you could not look yourself in the mirror. You are free my love. Nobody will ever judge you again. May you rest in peace 🕊️ See you when it is my turn. 
Mommy 

Our Christmases were  always amazing. You made our lives shine through the bright light your spirit held within you. I love you princess 💓

You were not only my daughter but you were  my best friend. My heart aches without you. I know you are in heaven marching with the Saints and looking over us.  God gave me the greatest assignment raising you,  Until we meet,
Mommy

Tenesha loved her uncle Alex 💕. I am so happy she got a chance to know her grandma Peggy. Grandma really loved you. She and Alex had the privilege of talking to you before you passed. And we know you are with great grandma and grandpa on both sides. You are so loved. 

I still cannot believe that you are gone. I miss you so much everyday. You were the best sister anyone could have asked for. You were like a second mother to both Indiana and I. You were my first friend, I remember those days as kids when we would play the N64 either Mario Kart or Kirby together, or how I would watch you playing Sim 2 for hours, and watching the Simpsons and Naruto together. What I would give to have those times back. You will always be apart of me and I am glad to have had you as a sister. I love you ❤️

Tenesha was a special childhood friend of mine. I still have vivid memories of fun times with her. We would play Nintendo 64 and Sega games ALL the time. I think Donkey Kong was my favorite. I remember how much she loved dolphins and how her room was decorated with them. She was the sweetest and kindest friend. I'm not very good with words, but I am sad and wish that I could've known her as an adult. I wish the circumstances of life didn't get in the way of our friendship growing even further. I loved our friendship growing up and I will always cherish those memories. I know you're at peace now. I cannot wait to see you again, Tenesha. ❤️

I can’t believe you’re gone, I’m so sorry. I love you baby girl. 

Tenesha loved her brother so much. This is the day that her brother took his driving test. She made sure she was there to cheer him on.

This is my daughters most beautiful urn.  God rest her soul. She was my Angel, my first love, my everything. 

Tenesha had a water bottle that looked like a tall Amazon Echo Speaker so I walked up to her water bottle and said "Alexa".  She laughed for a good 10 minutes.  Her laugh was truly infectious and when I was around her I always tried to say silly and mostly stupid things hoping to make her laugh which I enjoyed watching so so much.  I will miss her dearly. 

Tenesha was my best friend for as long as I could remember. She was the kindest soul and wise beyond her years. I have so many fond memories playing with her, Kimberly, Natasha, and Johanna. I think we both bonded on being a little socially awkward. I remember when our friend group started to drift a bit we panicked, and wrote a long letter along with this elaborate plan on how to approach them with it. However it was as easy as just running into each other at lunch, catching up, and laughing about why we thought it would be so difficult. I wish I had remembered this when we also started to drift apart. Tenesha was a wonderful person who brought so much joy and love to those around her. I hope she is at peace now and deserves only the best. 

Tenesha was a smile available to all. Her love for her Mother and Brothers was unmatched as she was a loving and caring Angel.  She will be greatly missed,  the memory of her smile and kindness will always be remembered 🙏.

Tenesha was a childhood friend of mine. We met in 3rd grade and she quickly became one of my best friends. She was smart, imaginative and had a big heart. Christina, her and I were so close. My first sleepover was at her place. My first time at a water park was with her. Whenever I reflect back on my childhood friendships, she always comes to mind. I was really shy as a child, but she helped bring me out of my shell. I was truly able to be myself around her. I’ll always cherish the memories we had together. I only wish I did more on my end to stay in touch. She really grew up to be such a beautiful woman. Situations and circumstances took her away too soon, but the love many felt for her will never go away. May your soul be at peace Tenesha. I love you. 

Tenesha you were a loving, caring young lady. You came with your Mom to visit Harry before he passed bringing him a stuffed dog with hearts for Valentine’s Day.  I still have that gift and think of you and your Mom often.  You suffer no longer Tenesha.  We will see you and Harry again.
