2018 - 9th Anniversary 
 Our Sweet and Beautiful Lea Where are you? It has been 9 years since we last heard your voice, saw your smile 9 years that we do not feel your presence and your beautiful gentle being is not near us. How we miss you. Our world came crashing down when you left and it has left scars in all of us who love you. Life is very demanding. We are forced to navigate in unknown territories that are so scary and shake us to our core. We are not given a choice or given any guidance but we are forced into what life brings us. The seconds, the minutes, the hours, the days, the nights, keep ticking away without you. Nothing changes, our love stays strong. The silence is deafening, the void gets deeper and deeper. Your presence is missed more and more at each new event at every turn in everyone's life. Your kindness towards everyone in this world where it is so needed is missed by everyone. 1 year 2 years 5 years 10 years 20 years......We will miss you till the day we are reunited with you in a world of love and peace. July 16 will forever be engraved in our minds, our hearts and our being. Life is continuing without you, how hard it is to see that, you are missed so much. Naliya turned 7 this year.Josue turned 4. You would have loved them and they would have loved you. How I wish they would have met you. Nonna is still going strong. She is a tough cookie. We all admire her strength. We have learned so much since you left. We have learnt that the only thing that is real in this world is love. Love is profound and deepens more and more everyday, there are no boundaries to love, it is eternal. Love is beyond anything here on earth. We must hang on to love and hold onto it tight because in the end that's all that is. Today we are sad because what happened to you is not fair. We cannot understand any of it. Just know that your Mommy and Daddy love you more than words, so profound, deep and genuine. We can only hold on to this now till the day we are again reunited. Beautiful kind loving and gentle Lea, we embrace you and we love you today tomorrow and always. Mom, Dad, Mia & Howie A Day Like Any Other Author unknown A day like any other, a month like any other, a year like any other. That is how I live my life now. My love of life, my love of living which I had many years ago is gone. It left me in an instant. It left me and abandoned me never to return. The life I knew and lived before that tragic moment seems so long ago and yet it seems like yesterday. For me time stands still. Nothing and no one can give meaning to my life anymore. Nothing and no one can bring me a moment of joy or a moment of peace. There isn't one second in the almost five years that she disappeared that she is not in my thoughts. There isn't one second of those five years that my heart has not ached so bad that I longed to see her again if only for a moment. Why do I go on? Why don't I end it? At times I feel she is waiting for me. But then I feel so empty and so confused that I can't imagine her waiting for me. Knowing her, she would want me to be happy and live this life I have to the fullest. She would want me to live, love and enjoy every minute. My daughter was an exceptional human being. She was love, she was joy and compassion. I can't let her down. I must continue to honor her life by living mine the best way I can with her in my heart and soul.
