To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

 Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
 Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
 That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
 God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

 It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

 God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not  be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My heart breaks for your family and all the people whom Lauren touched. There are just no words to say to make any sense of her passing. Lauren was such a loving young lady. As a teenager she was always interested in talking to me even though I was an adult, most teens are not that way. I will never forget a ride to dance comp, Val was coming later. We had such a talk! I am holding all of you in my prayers to find a time and place where you will be able to breath again. You will be with her again and she is with you now. I do believe that.

Rest in peace Lauren, I will always remember your beautiful smile! My thoughts are with your family and friends.

My heart goes out to you for deep loss you must be feeling   for your beloved.How sad to   lose   someone  so loved and so needed.May you find   comfort  in prayer and one another . (Jeremiah 29:12,13)

May her light live on forever. God bless you.

I wish I could have been there!  My thoughts and prayers are with you all!  I love you Lauren, may you rest in peace!

lala will always be an angel. rest easy sweetheart. I wish so badly I could be there with all of y'all. prayers to each and everyone of y'all.

Praying for peace and comfort for your family

I just wanted the family to know that you are in our prayers. We know your pain all too well, but please take comfort in knowing that she is at total peace and will always be with those she loves. As they always say "only the good die young", well we all know that God definitely chose the best!  She is now your Guardian Angel. She has joined my son (Dylan Shannon who was a good friend of hers)& all the many others who left before her. We were blessed to have known her during her short time in this life & look forward to seeing her again on the other side. Fly~high sweet angel. You will be deeply missed by all those who had the honor of knowing you. We love you Lauren! Forever and ever... The Shannon family
