TERRY and LISA HOUSTON
On October 2, 2002 our world changed for ever. Our son Michael passed away at the
age of 17 from an accidental overdose. He was given a pill to take by a boy he knew for
cold symptoms he had, went to work, came home and called his girlfriend and went to
sleep but he never woke up. He was given Methodone, took 2 pills and died and that
was all that was in his system.

We take one day at a time with the help of our family and friends and we go and visit
him everyday at the cemetery. Michael carried a verse in his wallet which read: "May the
Lord watch between me and thee, while we are absent one from the other," and we
have this inscribed on his memorial bench.

By the grace of God we are learning how to live new lives now as new people. The
"
Memorial Walk to Remember Children" brings other grieving parents, friends and
family together where we can feel safe to cry, laugh and remember our children.
"The
love that bonds your family close no matter where you go; Is strengthened by an
Angel's touch that keeps your heart aglow."

God Bless You!

WAWONA INGRAM
Mother of three. Grandmother of two.  I have had a baby brother (Greg), a niece
(Ronnetta) and a sister (Evelyn) to die suddenly, and all at a young age.  I think it is up
to us as family who loved them to keep their memory alive.  As long as we hold them in
our hearts, they are forever with us.  I think the annual
Walk to Remember is a great
tool to not only memorialize our loved ones, but to also connect with others who have
lost loved ones, and share our experiences and stories, and ultimately support and lift
each other up as we gain strength to continue on this journey called life.

On October 16, 2005 my world was devastated by the loss of my son, Clint Hood.  He
was 22 years old and was killed in a jeep accident.  From that very moment my life was
changed forever and will never be the same.  

With the help of family and friends I managed to make it day to day.  The real healing
began with the help of the Mother’s Group that was formed just a few months after my
loss.  These mothers became my friends and confidants.  I will always believe there is
a special bond between mothers who have lost children.

We appreciate your participating in the
Walk to Remember, and if you would like to
contact me please feel free to call 336.575.3599.

WILLETTE MOSBY-REYNOLDS
Ronnetta Monique Mosby was my firstborn, "my heart."  The baby girl I'd prayed for was
killed when a school bus hit her car on Friday, November 30, 2001.  And earlier that
very same week, my heart had gone out to a mother who had lost her son in a car
accident.  Because I knew how I'd prayed for that mother, whom I did
not know, I knew
many were praying for me.  And those prayers sustained me and my family during our
loss.  "Netta" was only 21 years old.

Since this tragic loss, I've chosen life and try to look for the positives in everything. I gain
strength (peace and comfort) in giving and doing for others.  I strive to encourage, uplift,
and share random acts of kindness.  The
 Walk to Remember Children was a vision
that has visualized beyond my wildest imagination.  Thank you for your participation!  
Please let me know if I can help you in anyway. 336.774.1567.

"And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony."
