Terrance was my boyfriend and i didn't even find out about his death until a week after, only because my family was afraid of what i might do to my self, they didn't want me to join him so soon. I loved him and i still do. Terrance my love i miss you and all the time we spent together, i still have the bracelet and necklace you gave me at the fair and the rock shop. i just miss you being able to make me smile

T.J. you were there for me in the darkest of times and I'm sorry I couldn't be there for you. I love you so much, you mean the world to me and you will always have my heart. Don't forget how to smile and love everyone down here and watch over us as we live our lives. I'll see you soon honey :)

There are no words so I'm not going to say them. I will miss you, you will always been my heart.

Tj I will miss our little talks we had when I came up to visit. You are missed and loved very much.. May you fly with the Angels..

You will always e in my heart. You will be forever missed but you are no longer suffering. I love you T.J.

Thank you, for loving me when I needed it. Thank you, for loving me when I didn't think I deserved it. Thank you, for embracing me to remind me that you were there. Thank you, for the wonderful memories I have of you even though they are few.

I'll miss you so very much. There is a hole in my heart and soul where you were. I'll fill it with stories of you, the smiles I saw, the laughter I heard, and the words that you spoke. It won't be the same, and I already know that the pain will never stop, but I hope that I will be able to smile and laugh through the tears as I learn more about the person you were becoming.

I don't know how to act right now, how to speak or how to feelI just know I want you back. I want the future we'll never have, the memories we won't share, the hugs I'll never get again, and to hear you tell me you love me one more time. I want to hear about the adventures you were going to take, and the things you were going to see and do.

I don't know what happens when we leave the physical world. Do we still remember, do we still see and hear? Do we go somewhere better or get recycled to become something new? Does it just stop? The greatest mystery in the universe is what happens in the afterlife, and my dear brother you now know the answer. I hope that whatever does come after this is peaceful, and amazing, and maybejust maybe.I'll see you again. If I don't though, I'm so glad I got to see you while you were here.

With deepest sympathy, our thoughts and prayers remain with T.J's family through this difficult time. He was a sensitive and caring young man- he will be greatly missed.

TO TH FAMILY AND FRIENDS OF TJ. I NEVER MET HIM BUT KNOW HIS MOM AND UNCLE.FROM WHAT HAVE READ HE WAS A CHARACTER. REMEMBER THOSE GOOD TIMES AND MAY OUR LORD HAVE HIM AND MAY HE COMFORT HE FAMILY AND FRIENDS. BILL GIOIA

How do you condense someone's life into a few words? Especially someone so amazing as our son, our brother, a grandson, a nephew, a cousin and a friend. Funny, kind, handsome, polite, awesome, wonderful, goofy, angel, protector, supporter, great and a multitude of others and all of them put a smile on all our faces.  
TJ Clements was an absolute delight to be with. His laugh was so infectious. We can remember the times he'd get tickled by something and bust up with laughter, it always made us smile, always made all of us smile and laugh with him.  He was such a gentleman, always opening doors (even for his mom), always trying to help, always taking the time to listen when someone needed to talk.  He had this smirky little grin that everyone knows so well, always made me think Just exactly what are you up to right now? He was never shy about showing his affection, not even in public. Even at the ripe old age of 19, he was still giving us hugs and kisses and saying I love you! He grew up to be such an outstanding young man and so handsome. 
We've read all the messages and memories that have been posted about TJ on his page, my page, the support page, and the memory page created by one of his friends.  It makes us so happy and so proud that the TJ we knew is who everyone else knew also.  That not only was he the most fantastic person with his family, he was also the most fantastic person with his friends and everyone he came into contact with.
One of TJ's biggest dreams since he was old enough to know anything was to go into the Army. Every single birthday before he reached teen-hood, all he wanted was Army stuff and Army men to play with. He had such an obnoxious amount of those little Army men and tanks and all that goes with it. TJ was not able to go into the Army because he was deaf in one ear, however, it still remained a dream, enough so even as recent as his last year at Flowing Wells he was still talking to recruiters and wanting to check into getting an implant. He was in JROTC all through his years at Flowing Wells. He was so proud on the days that they were required to wear their uniforms. Those shoulders went high, he carried himself just as a soldier would. 
TJ, you are our child, our love. We will miss you forever and always. You will always be in our hearts. Until we see you again..Smooches ~n~ Hugs, Mama, Daddy, Andrew, Katie and Becca

Our most sincere condolences to TJ's family. We did not get the chance to get to know him except through Shyrl's posts. What we saw there showed what an amazing young man he was.Our hearts go out to you during this difficult time.

TJ was bright and funny but also quiet and shy.  He was a good student and he will forever be one of my favorite students.  Ms. Woodley (Altar Valley)

You were a great person and we will miss you

I would like to express my deepest condolences to the Clements' family for your loss.  TJ was a kind caring young man.  I remember his sheepish smile and his positive attitude.  He was always happy.  I was sorry to see him leave JROTC.  He will always be in my thoughts and prayers.

TJ you have touch the Wyatt families heart and will be missed. I am grateful to have had the chance to watch you grow with my kids. I love you

Oh T.j. I wish you could see how much you've left an impact on all the ones who had the blessing to know you. Nothing saddens me more than having to say goodbye. He was a very kind soul. I'll never forget the first day of high school he sat on the bus next to me and made me feel so comfortable. Im so happy that he decided to sit next to me that day, I feel honored to have gained such a rewarding friendship with him. He never failed to make me laugh and always cheered me up when I was sad. He was honestly the best part of the bus ride.I still remember the day you accidentally called me "Kitty". We laughed so hard. I wish I wouldnt have left school. I couldve spent so much more time with him. I just want to thank T.J. so much for helping me with so many things, He was truely a remarkable person. Anyone that has crossed his path knows that. I am so incredibly sorry to T.J.'s family. My deepest condolences to you. Just know that T.J loves every single one of you and hes with you everyday. 
We love you T.J. You are missed by many. Thank you for the memories.   Love, Kitty <3

I didn't know TJ, but know you Shyrl and my heart goes out to you and your family. Hugs and Love to you all!

TJ will be missed greatly and holds a place in my heart he was always the guy who was there for you when you needed someone, I remember my first day of school he sat in frount of me in my U.S history class and he turned around and said Hi and that's when it began he stepped out of his comfort zone to reach out and meet people he was loved widely and deeply by tons of people and he will be greatly missed I am truly sorry for your loss no family should have to go threw this but please remember he lives in your heart he will always be there and a message to TJ thank you for everything you have done for me you are a great person and I will see you when the time comes ❤

Worked with TJ at AVMS. Saw him often at Church services. This was a considerate and loving young man and my heart breaks for him. Kat Jose

TJ is the sweetest young man, I have many fond memories of his goofy antics with his siblings and his mom and that sweet smile of his that never failed to make me smile along with him. But my fondest memory was of the day he came to meet his new cousin.... He barely knew me then and yet that day he made me feel like a part of the family...like he truly thought of me as his Aunt. I am truly blessed to have been accepted and loved by this amazing young man and his family and I will miss him dearly.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. 
Your in my heart everyday.
Love you all
