Please don’t tell me my broken will heal,
Because that is just not true,

Please don’t tell me my son is in a better place,
Though it is true, I want him here with me,

Don’t tell me someday I’ll hear his voice, see his face,
Beyond today I cannot see,

 
Don’t tell me it is time to move on,
Because I cannot,

Don’t tell me to face the fact he is gone,
Because denial is something I can’t stop,

Don’t tell me to be thankful for the time I had,
Because I wanted more,

Don’t tell me when I am my old self you will be glad,
I’ll never be as I was before,

What you can tell me is you will be here for me,
That you will listen when I talk of my child,

You can share with me my precious memories,
You can even cry with me for a while,
And please don’t hesitate to say his name.

Because it is something I long to hear,
Friend please realize that I can never be the same,

 
But if you stand by me, your friendship will be my
treasure.

Sally--Mother
In memory of my child-TROY COLLINS JR

YOU WILL NEVER BE ALONE SON,

SO DON'T EVER BE AFRAID,

I WILL WALK ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDE !

 






This memorial website was created in 

memory of Troy Collins Jr.  Troy was 

born at Fisher Titus Hospital on 

September 20 1983.  He was taken 

from 

this earth on July 7 1999.  He has one 

sister, Sabrina Dials, Two nephews 

Dustin Dials and Trevor Dials. His 

brother inlaw OJ also.  He loved them 

so much .     He made plans when he 

turned 18 to move to kentucky and be 

with shelly.  He never made it.  But i 

am 

so sure Troy is looking down from 

heaven ,"saying i will wait for you all" 

to come be with me.  

WHEN the lord took my child

I am so very glad

You are our angel and i would never 

ask the lord to send you back to us to  

suffer the ways of this world.  Even 

though we suffer your loss.  We want 

the best for you and what better than 

to 

never feel no more pain.  All i ever 

wanted was the best i could give.  And 

if that means for us to suffer without 

you because we know you are happy 

and have beautiful wings,  wrapped in 

the arms of god. I love you son. 










 

Your sister misses having all  the things 
you 

and her did together.  The playing around 

and all the little  goofy things you did only 

to make her laugh.  You always wanted to 

make her smile.  Bub was always the type 

of 

child who tried not to get angry, he would 

always walk away and say those famous 

words: "Just let it go".  

OJ was like a brother to you,  you two loved 

one another . You wanted to hang out with 

him all the time.  Well i know he misses all 

the things you two would do. 


You was a beautiful baby, who grew into a 

man that along the way touched so many 

hearts.  I try to acomplish day by day to 

just make it without you,just like the 

people 

who loved you and knew you would give a 

smile whether young or old .  God needs 

flowers for his garden to grow and i believe 

with all my heart, he chose you to put 

into that garden.  Mom loves you son and i 

will look for you when god takes 

me home.,rest in the arms of God...  






               
  
   


  

LIFE WITHOUT YOU SEEMS SO DIFFERENT

THERE'S A VOID THAT'S AS BIG AS THE SKY.

GOD SENT HIS ANGELS TO TAKE YOU,

AND STILL WE KEEP WONDERING WHY.

YOUR LIFE ON EARTH HAD SUCH MEANING

FROM THE LOVE AND THE KINDNESS YOU SHARED.

AND EVERYONE WHO EVER KNEW YOU 

HAD NO DOUBT THAT YOU CARED.

THOSE OF US LEFT BEHIND STILL REMEMBER

HOW YOU TOUCHED US IN YOUR SPECIAL WAY.

WE MISS YOUR SWEET SMILE AND YOUR LAUGHTER,

AND WISH YOU WERE WITH US EACH DAY.

THE PAIN IN OUR HEARTS CAN'T BE MEASURED

WE SOMETIMES DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

THATS WHEN WE ASK GOD TO HELP US

MAKE IT THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT YOU.
