Notes To Mason Mason,
I think of you everyday, and miss you so much! I
hear you say hello everyday when I look at the clock and for some odd
reason I always catch it at 9:11. I know you're watching over me,
and thank you for it. I love you!
Love,
Ande

Mason, Everyday we pray to you and think of you. Your life is an inspiration to me, Uncle Craig, Erik and Kyle. Your ways are examples for all of us to follow. You truly are an angel. We miss you terribly. Aunt Sheila
Hi, Mase. I have been thinking about you so much and
just wanted to thank you for teaching me so many important lessons. Your
precious life and unforeseeable death are truly leading me, Mason. Thank you
for guiding me to be a better mother and more compassionate person. You speak
to me, and I hear you, and I thank you for that. I love you, Mase! Aunt
Carol

Hi, Mason. I just wanted to let you know how moved I was at your beautiful tribute today. As you know, it was all so fitting: the garden itself, the gathering of loving hearts, the sun shining, wind blowing, music lifting our souls and all the care put into a place of prayer of peace, a place for us to share our hopes and dreams with you, our precious nephew and special cousin. Mason, we miss you more that words can express, and I try daily to find comfort in knowing that you are in a special place, being the wonderful angel that you are, doing God's work, helping us all to grow and heal despite our pain. Thank you Mason, for so many things big and small, and thank you for giving Gregory someone special to look up to and feel that he can count on when he is afraid. Your spirit will forever live on in our hearts and you will never be forgotten. I love you, Mace. Aunt Carol
Dear Mason, Today, I sat, as your garden was being dedicated. It was as if Heaven came down to meet the Earth. Many were there to celebrate, and to remember you and your life. As the wind blew, I thought surely this must be the rustling of angel wings. The bells began to ring and the choir began to sing and we all knew it was God's Love that it would bring. The best of it ,Mason, was as the garden was blessed, it began to sprinkle fresh rain drops from Heaven and I knew, that as You and Ryan and all of our Angels watched, God was blessing this beautiful garden Himself. We will see you again sweet Mason. Give Ryan a hug for me and tell him, I love him, Frankie
Mason,
This is your 2nd cousin Mark. Your
Mom is my favorite cousin -- we spent great times together in Galveston and
Colorado and I visited the Houston House when you were a newborn, saw photos
of you from time to time. I took the virtual tour of your memorial garden --
it looks great. My interest in sculpture was kindled on that Houston visit
when I stopped by an art galley and saw an exhibit of Max Ernst's work.
The rough granite stone, next to the smooth stone wall and falling and
gathered water are all elements I love in architectural and sculptural work.
Thanks for the inspiration.
Mark
