In Loving Memory of My Best Friend






One year ago today my best friend was suddenly taken from me. I still cannot believe one year has gone by without her in my life. That day I heard the news it was like I lost two people at once, my best friend and my sister. This sweet girl meant the world to me and always will. I will never forget that amazing smile she had and how she could just light up a room by walking in it. I love to think about all the amazing memories we made together. From our long talks about life, to camping trips, weekend getaways, spice girls videos, lunches taken, playing in her back yard with her animals she loved, and playing dress up and many many more. I have so many fun stories and memories about this girl that I will cherish for a lifetime. These pictures are mostly all on my wedding day but they were all I had on my computer. I love to replay this day over and over because she is with me all day. I am so thankful for the gospel in my life because it constantly helps me get through the rough days. I feel her close to me a lot and I love that feeling. I know she is just fine where she is and is the happiest she has been in a long time. She will always be rememebered for her sweet spirit and her being so caring towards everyone she met.
**"Beana, I love you so much! I miss you more and more everyday, I know you are close by because I feel you often. I hope you know how much I love you and miss you. I can't wait to see you again to give you a big hug! I'll see you soon! Love ya "booger"! Love your Morgy"

Its been a year and even now I wonder Who You'd Be Today:

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
I feel you everywhere I go.
I see your smile, I see your face,
I hear you laughin' in the rain.
I still can't believe you're gone.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who'd you be today?

Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams?
Settle down with a family,
I wonder what would you name your babies?
Some days the sky's so blue,
I feel like I can talk to you,
An' I know it might sound crazy.

It ain't fair: you died too young,
Like the story that had just begun,
But death tore the pages all away.
God knows how I miss you,
All the hell that I've been through,
Just knowin' no-one could take your place.
An' sometimes I wonder,
Who you'd be today?

Today, today, today.
Today, today, today.

Sunny days seem to hurt the most.
I wear the pain like a heavy coat.
The only thing that gives me hope,
Is I know I'll see you again some day.

Some day, some day, some day.

Morgan, I have waited to make a comment because I was so very emotional reading your tribute to Jana. I love everything you wrote and I still can't believe that she is gone. What a bright light she was in all our lives. I know you must feel the greatest loss with your close sister like friendship. I am thinking of you too. Love you very much!
