<i>In the past we have written letters Heavenward to Spring and
Casey. This year I have decided to send a letter from Heaven. I wrote it as
follows:</i><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dearest Shane, Angie, Hayden, Hannah, Harry, Hattie, Max, T
and Payton,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It has been six entire years since I was able to hold and
snuggle you with my Earthly body of flesh and blood.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A body that allowed me to grow up in a family
that loved and still entirely loves me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I was able to grow from a baby to an adult.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was able to marry my best friend in the
House of the Lord and we were able to start a family of our own.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was able to hold you in my arms and sweetly
whisper to you how much love I will always have for you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Please don’t shed too many tears for me.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although my mortal body endured all that it
could, my Spirit body is still very much alive in Heaven!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You may think that Heaven is far away, but
what you may not realize is that Heaven is all around you.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When you need me, I am there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have always been there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When you feel a warm hug, but don’t see
anyone, please know this is me and I love you much more than you may know!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Conveyed with all my love,</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
your mom and wife
Spring, and your dad and husband Casey</div>

has been four long years since we have held you in our arms. We love and miss you ALL of the time! We just wanted to write this letter and send
it up to Heaven on your FOUR YEAR ANGELVERSARY.
We want you to know that we keep you in our thoughts and in our hearts
every moment of every day. We remember
all of the incredible life experiences we shared. We know that our love expanded through the
good times and strengthened during the difficult ones. We want you both to know that we took two
fragile families…who will always love and miss you… and created one big family
who has learned how to love and care for one another. We grasp that there are ups and downs in life
and are doing our utmost to cope with the immense pain we have felt since you
returned to Heaven too soon for our liking.
We still don’t fully understand why you both were taken from this Earth so
early in your lives, but we do have a testimony that we believe everything God
does is for a greater purpose. You were
needed in Heaven and we are still needed on this Earth. </span></i></div>

who may be going through or has gone through a similar tragedy. We are still learning here and want you to
know that although we miss you more than words will ever be able to convey, we
know we will get to see you and be in your compassionate embrace in Heaven once
again.</span></i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large; text-align: left;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> What is the definition of a family? There are countless answers to this depending upon where and how you were raised and who took a part in your social growth. However, what every true family has in common is that it is made up of the people who are most important in our lives.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Our family is unique since it is a combination of two families brought together by the loss of a loved one. Our beloved Spring and Casey both passed away due to cancer in January 2014. Cancer is a difficult hardship to endure and they faithfully fought with everything they had. While it was not easy, they endured it well and endured to the end of their given time on this Earth. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> It has been three whole years since we have seen their smiles, heard their voices and exuberant laughter, grasped their hands and touched their radiant cheeks. Three years is a long time...but never has one day gone by since then that we have not thought about how much we love and miss them. It would take a lifetime to list all of their cherished qualities that are treasured and missed every second of every day. However we will continue to always strive to engrave each and every one of them into our hearts every moment we are given.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> As every year on their Angelversarys' I reflect back upon everything our family has accomplished and how each member has grown. As I visualize all of the monumental things, one in particular stands out that I would like to share. In August 2016 Heavenly Father blessed our family with a new little one. We lovingly refer to her as the "icing on our cake". She has Mom, Dad and all of her siblings wrapped around her cute little finger. When her adorable little cry is heard she has many of us tripping over one another to rush to her immediate assistance. She was blessed with a sweet spirit and has brought our Family even closer together. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Even through all of the hard times our family is uniquely blessed to have our two Angels watching over us and a Family who loves and cares for one another. Here's to another year and may we be blessed to gracefully endure any and all challenges that come our way.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Spring and Casey we love and miss you immensely...but we want to let you know we are doing well with your help from above. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Love, </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Your Family</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">January 15, 2016 and January 19, 2016 marks the two year Angelversary for Spring Hubbard and Casey Wheeler. The song below is one that Hayden, Hannah and their friends sang at our ring ceremony and dedicated to our angels, Spring and Casey. We feel that it is a special song for our family and would like to share it with you.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; text-align: left;">Spring and Casey will remain forever in our hearts and family. After Shane and I were married, our then 3 year old daughter declared that she now has 2 Dads and 2 Moms. I love that this phenomenal observation that is so difficult for us veterans of the world to understand was uttered by the lips of an innocent child</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; text-align: left;">. </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; text-align: left;">She views all of us as one big family. So simplistic... yet so genuinely true. This is the pathway that God has unfolded before us to unite us as one loving family.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My awesome sister-in-law, Britney, made quilts to give to each child to commemorate the one year Angelversary. These are not your ordinary quilts! They were made with pieces of Spring’s and
Casey’s clothing. When the kids are
missing Spring or Casey, they are able to take the quilt and wrap it around
them like they are getting a warm hug. The kids absolutely LOVE these quilts!!! Thank
you so much Britney for donating your time and ability in creating these quilts. We appreciate how much love was put into each one. :)</span></div>

her cancer treatments, I started growing my hair to donate in her name. It has taken a while but I finally had enough
hair to donate. For the one year mark our

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Since the day they found Casey’s tumor I have been keeping a
journal to share with Max and T when they get older. They are so young and won’t remember a lot of what happened and I want to make sure I am able to share things with them when they

<i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">December 5,
2013 </span></i><i><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">… a few
weeks ago I was having a rough time and thought of the phrase, “When life gives
you lemons, make lemonade.” I pondered this for a while and thought, Lord I am trying my best to make this
lemonade. I then thought yes I am still
making lemonade, but it is a bit sour.
Lord I put my faith in thee and although sometimes my lemonade is sour,
I will be more grateful when my lemonade is sweet. It takes going through the bad days to fully
enjoy and appreciate the good days when they are upon us. :)</span></i></blockquote>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The moral of the story is no matter what life throws at you, keep
doing your very best. The Lord knows we
are going to make mistakes and he just asks us to do our best. I believe that when our best is done he will
provide someone to step in and help us where we are lagging. (</span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have learned that sometimes we need to be
the one asking the other person for help! We need to listen to the Spirit to
receive the help we need.)</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> So keep
making your lemonade, no matter how sour it is….at least you are still moving
forward! We all have days when life gets
us down and we don’t know what to do. I
have learned to recognize those days, as sometimes needed, and to </span><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">be grateful for them</i><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> along with our good
days, because it does take living the sour days to recognize the sweet days.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thanks to everyone for your kindness and love towards our family :)</span><br />

Mom to six kids I would have said they were crazy. But here we are….about to enjoy our first
Christmas together as a blended family.
I am sure there are a lot of you out there who don’t know the story, so
let me back up a little to February of this year (2014). Below is the condensed version of our story :)</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In late February I brought my children to a grieving
group. Hospice care suggested the group
to me so I decided I would go and try it out.
While I was at <span style="background-color: white;">the intake, which is where the grieving group leaders meet with me and the kids and decide which group is best for us,</span> I felt <i>VERY </i>strongly that I
should choose a certain week with a certain group. In feeling this I thought maybe it was
because I would meet another person at the group, who had gone through a
similar circumstance, and we could help each other out in the grieving
process. At the grieving group the kids
get divided into their own groups and the adults are in a separate group until
everyone is combined together at the very end to talk and sing :)<span style="background-color: white;"> I </span>did meet some great
people in the group. One person in
particular being Shane, whose wife had passed away from cancer four days before
Casey passed away. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I wasn’t able to make it to the next group meeting, so the
next time I saw Shane was at the LDS widow’s and widower’s conference, which I
mentioned in my March blog. When I arrived
at the conference and walked into the gym to eat, at the breakfast before the
conference started, I saw him sitting at a table all by himself. Because there were mainly ladies at the conference,
he was sitting by himself at a table and looked as if he wanted to dart out of
there. Since I knew him from the one
group meeting I felt like I needed to go over and sit next to him. I also knew another lady from our grieving group and I was meeting a lady from Morgan at the conference. They sat down by him as well and soon our table was full. Shane ended up staying the whole conference and I was able to chat with him a little and get
to know him and a lot of other people at the conference. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I saw him a couple of other times after that at the grieving
group. But we didn’t talk much to each other until April
15<span style="font-size: 13px;">th</span>, <i style="background-color: white;">of all days</i>! For those that don't know Casey and I worked at a tax software company together and that is where we met. April </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">15</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">th</span><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> is the deadline to file 1040 tax returns and was always a big day at work.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I sent him the following message on Facebook:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Shane, I have a
totally random question and I thought if anyone would know, you might. One of
the kids must have accidentally pushed in and turned the doorknob on one of our
bathroom doors and left it open. At night I shut the bathroom doors to make
sure the cat doesn't drink out of the toilet....so I shut the door and realized
it was locked. Don't worry no one is in there and we have another bathroom. I
tried using a wire coat hanger and I can't get any button to push on the
inside. The hinges are on the bathroom side of the door. Is there some way to
get the door open using the wire hanger? Maybe I am doing something wrong?<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Yes I was a little embarrassed about sending the message to
him, but the door had been locked for almost a full day. I had tried numerous times to get the door
open and wasn’t having any luck. I thought
out of everyone I knew, a police man might know how to help me open it. Funny enough <i>less than an hour</i> after I sent Shane the Facebook message I was
talking in the phone with my Mom in one hand, about how frustrated I was that I
couldn’t get the door open (we used to open those types of locks all of the time with no
trouble when I was a kid), and in the other hand I was trying to unlock the
door……and the door handle popped open with no trouble. Immediately I was relieved it was open, but
embarrassed I had asked Shane for help. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I sent a Facebook message to Shane and let him know I wasn’t
in need of assistance any more. When he
got back to me he was really nice and asked if I needed help with anything
else. I told him that fortunately I
hadn’t locked any more doors and I was doing well. We exchanged numbers, in case I was in need
of anything else. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Earlier in the week I was contemplating what I could do for
others and Shane and his family kept coming to my mind. I remembered him mentioning in grieving group
that he was learning to cook certain things for his four kids, but had never
really cooked before and was struggling with it. I thought that I should be nice and bring him
dinner….but I kept putting it off. After
he was so willing to help me out I decided to call him and ask if I could bring
dinner for his family on the following Monday, so he wouldn’t have to worry
about dinner for one night. It also made
me feel good that with all of the help I had and still was receiving I could
help give back by helping others where I could.
I also kept wondering why less than an hour after I sent Shane the
Facebook message, asking for help, my door unlocked with little effort from me. I thought maybe it was because his family
might need a few dinners or there was something else I could help with. Not sure of anything I was doing, I relied on
the Spirit and knew that I needed to bring dinner to this family. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Shane gratefully accepted the dinner offer, so the next
Monday I dropped dinner off at his house.
The next day we chatted on the phone and decided to take the kids to a
movie that Friday. That way Shane and I could
talk about our experiences on the way to the movie and the kids could get to know
each other, since they had gone through similar experiences with having a
parent pass away from cancer. Funny
enough ten minutes into the movie the power went out, in that part of town, and
the movie theater had no power. We
decided to go to my house and let the kids watch a DVD so they could still get
their movie night. Shane and I were able
to talk a bit more and decided to go out the next Friday by ourselves, so we
could get to know each other’s stories a little better……at least that it what
we told ourselves. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We started really enjoying
talking to each other, because we had similar experiences and were going
through the grieving process at basically the same time, and it ended up with
us dating. No, this was not what we were
planning! But some of the
good things in life aren’t planned! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I
have had the opportunity to learn a lot of lessons in the past few years. One of them is when I ask the Lord a question
and he gives me an answer, I should never question the answer!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Shane was great and, among many other great people, he made
me feel very special and loved on my first Mother’s Day, without Casey. I wanted to make his Father’s Day just as
special, so I decided on a certain gift that came to my mind and it was the greatest
gift I could think of. Because my Be
CaseyStrong bracelet means so much to me, I wanted to let Shane and his family
know they mean a lot to me, so I created a new bracelet. On one end it read Be CaseyStrong and other
end it now read BeSpringStrong. Spring
is Shane’s wife who also passed away from cancer in January….four days before
Casey passed away. We have felt that our
spouses had something to do with us meeting each other and falling in love.</span></div>

<o:p><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> </span></o:p><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">On October 11, 2014 Shane and I got married.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I know what you are doing now…..you are
trying to figure out how long it has been.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Almost nine months after we lost our spouses we were married and started
a new chapter together in our lives!</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I
know you are thinking, wow that is fast.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Yep!</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I step back and think that
that as well.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">But another lesson I have
learned through all of this, is that time is precious and when the Lord sends a
great gift your way and confirms in your heart that this is the route you
should take, then DO NOT second guess him.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">God knows all and really does have a plan for each and every one of
us.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Time is very precious.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I know we all think that yeah, yeah time is
precious, but when you have lost a loved one it actually sinks in.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I realize that it had only been nine months,
but I am thanking my Father in Heaven that I didn’t have to stay alone on this
earth for any longer than that.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Yes,
that is a great gift from God to both of our families.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We have each other to love, each other to
care for and each other as one big family.</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Loving each other doesn’t mean that we don’t miss and love Casey and
Spring!</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We miss them every day and will
always love them!</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We are grateful that we

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We are allowed to spend our first Christmas, without Casey
and Spring on earth, as a family. Our family is
very unique because our kids are all missing their Mom or Dad and Shane and I
are both missing our spouses. At
different times I have witnessed each kid crying, because of missing Spring or
Casey. One or multiple kids have given
them a hug and talked to them about it, because more than anyone else they understand
what each other are going through and feeling.
We have a family where pictures and stories of Spring and Casey are more
than welcome and always needed. We talk
about it together and we love our family of eight.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">This Christmas season, as a blended family, we get to create some
great memories together and go over the true reason for the season. Christ’s birthday is why we celebrate
Christmas. Yes, getting Christmas
presents for Christmas is great, but I like to think Christmas is more about
giving than receiving. I am not talking about needing
to spend money on a gift. We had a
Family Home Evening and read a story from the “Friend” entitled, “A Bit of
Christmas Every Day.” When we are
serving others we are serving the Lord. We can serve the Lord every single day. The gift I decided to give is the
gift of love. In the eternal perspective
we are all brothers and sisters. If we
love each other then we will seek out ways to help and serve one another. There are many gifts to give the Savior, what
will your gift be?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The Lord has given me the opportunity to be a Mom of six kids and I
am so thankful for that! I am thankful
that he trusts me to help raise these <span style="background-color: white;">six</span> great kids. No, we don’t always have easy days, but life
wasn’t meant to be easy it was meant to lived.
I love the quote that says, “I never said it would be easy, I only said
it would be worth it.” I have to say it
for sure hasn’t been easy, but it has already been more than worth it. I love Heavenly Father and Jesus so much!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">I was honored to be able to visit
Kathy one last time before she passed.
The night before I visited her I was reading a book called, “Pete the
Cat: I love my White Shoes” to Max and Tenley. The moral of the story reminded me of both
Casey and Kathy and I felt like I needed to share it with Kathy. So I showed up to the hospital and read it to
Kathy, just how I read it to my kids… with the funny voices and sad attempt at
singing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Comic Sans MS"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;">This is a summary of what the book
is about.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';">Pete the cat loves his white
shoes. He loves them so very much that he sings about them. One day
while he is walking and singing he steps in some strawberries and his shoes
turn red. But instead of becoming angry, he sings about how much he loves
his red shoes. When he steps in mud and his shoes turn brown, instead of
becoming angry, he sings about how much he loves his brown shoes. He goes
on to step in a few more things but just keeps walking along and singing his
song.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 11.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';">Pete's philosophy is summed up at the
end by his statement that "no matter what you step in just keep walking
along and singing your song." This
book provides a very simple message in his final words to the reader: "<i>It's all good." </i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 11.5pt;">
<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';">Casey had never read this book, but one
of the things he said through all of his challenges is that, “Life is good.” </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS';">Going through what I have I realize that the
little things in life don’t really matter as much as we think they do. So when I make a mistake or the kids do
something they shouldn’t I just try to remind myself that life really is all
good; to not sweat the small stuff, but to focus on why we are here on this
earth and what we would really like to accomplish with the time we are given.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">Well, we are now at the three month mark and still pressing onward and doing our best to live each day to its fullest. We want to convey our heartfelt thanks to all who have donated service and aid to our family. We are deeply grateful for everyone and we feel the love that is directed towards our family. We don’t know how we could have made it this far without so many helping hands. We cannot convey how much this has meant to us. With hearing about so much bad in the world, it’s great to see all of the good there is. When we were in need, there was and still is an outpouring of help. If I could give each person a heartfelt hug I would!</span><br />

A few weeks before I had Tenley, I quit my job to be a full-time stay-at-home Mom. I worked at a Tax Software company for seven years and had worked my way from a Support Agent to a Software Programmer. I found that I really like programming, but now I have experience with no schooling behind me. I have a Bachelor’s degree, but it is in Physical Education and Communication.So I am taking some courses at the DATC to prepare myself to take certification tests for certain programming codes. I am enjoying school and will finish my first class next week, a few days ahead of schedule! </span></div>

When we were done skating one night he wanted to climb on the big rock outside, like we have done a couple of times. There happened to be four other girls there and three were on top of the rock. I told Max to share the top of the rock and helped him up far enough so he could climb up the rest of the way himself. He sat next to the girls and then decided that he needed to get a little closer. He got a little closer and I guess he decided this girl was just super cute….she looked to be about 7 or 8 and Max is 5….so he scooted so close that all three of the girls on the top of the rock had to shift over to accommodate him. I told Max to share the top of the rock so the girls wouldn’t fall off. He started to scoot over to share, so the girl next to him started to scoot over. Max took the opportunity to smoothly put his arm around the girl and plant a kiss right on her cheek. I started laughing and had to put myself in check and tell him that kissing girls he just met wasn’t acceptable….while trying to keep a straight face. The girl didn’t dislike the kiss, she just looked at me like….uh what just happened. Priceless. I was hoping he would wait until 20 or so to be that interested in girls….looks like I might be in trouble. Where did he learn those moves? Probably from watching his Daddy. Haha. </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">Max was lucky the little girl's dad wasn’t around…so funny! </span><br />

Angie's sweet thoughts, on the second month anniversary, of her amazing husband's passing: </div>

"I was able to attend a widows/widowers conference recently. I woke up the morning of the conference a little nervous to go and thought about not going. The thought quickly vanished because I knew Casey would tell me that I should meet some new friends who better understand what I am going through. It was an all day conference so I started searching for some breath mints. I had a thought that maybe I had some in my church bag. I searched in one of the small, side pockets in my bag and couldn't feel the breath mint package. I was trying to think where else I would have some when the thought came to my mind to check the same pocket again. I checked the pocket again and reached my fingers all of the way to the bottom of the pocket and found something else. I pulled it out, and found a long lost necklace Casey had given to me for a Valentine's Day gift a couple of years ago. It was wrapped in knots around a kid's plastic spider ring. </div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white; color: #500050; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.800000190734863px;">
A few days previous in the week... I wasn't having the best of days. I was really, really missing Casey and reminiscing on things. One of those things was the necklace he had given me a few years ago as a Valentine's Day gift. It was a blue topaz necklace, because topaz is my birthstone. I had lost this necklace about 2 years ago and after looking for a couple of months I figured I had vacuumed it up inadvertently and it was gone forever. That day I was wishing I would have taken better care of where I had placed it because Casey had given it to me. </div>

<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.800000190734863px;"> Back to the morning of the conference....To me, finding this necklace was Casey's way of saying "I love you Angie." I knew he loved me, and wanted me to have a good time and meet new people who could help uplift my spirits. So I did go and I did meet new people who are in a similar circumstance as I am. I enjoyed the speakers and just being able to talk to so many people openly about things. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.800000190734863px;"> The past few days I have heard a song a lot on the radio and each time I hear it I can almost hear Casey telling me that life is meant to be lived and we are all meant to be happy. The song is "Happy" by Pharrell Williams."</span><br />

"I will have really bad days, really good days and all days in between. It takes experiencing the bad days to recognize and really appreciate the good days. I know that Christ knows exactly, and has felt exactly, what I am going through, and I love him so much for that! One of my favorite scriptures is 2 Nephi <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1985587957" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">2:25</span></span>. It reads, "Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy." May we remember this as we go through our busy lives, to sit back and enjoy our life and our family!"</div>

Yesterday was the one month mark of Casey’s leaving his body and going to live in the Spirit world with all those who had passed before him. Oh how great a reunion it must have been for Casey. I am sure Casey had some bittersweet feelings about the process, just like I did. I was so happy that he lived the life of a man we all should emulate and helped bring two great kids onto this earth. I was also happy that his body would be pain free forever and cancer could never, ever touch him again. I am so glad that he had relatives that had been following him on the other side of the veil, for quite some time, to greet him and welcome him home. I also know that he would have loved to stay on earth and spend more time with his family if he could have. But we are walking by Faith and understand that God knows the plan for us and what we need to go through to obtain eternal life. This pain, suffering and learning process is all part of the plan that was laid out for us before we even came to this Earth. God knows all and it is by Faith that we go through this life and return to him so we can live eternally with our family. Oh how great that day will be when we are all reunited again and never have to be apart again. I am so looking forward to that day. Until then I will live life the fullest, accept that I am human and will make mistakes, raise the kids as the Lord would have me raise them and listen to what I feel is right and not to go by what others profess is right for my family. I am sure Casey will help me along the way and will be there for the big milestones in our children’s lives. I am looking forward to feeling him there and I will live life so I will be able to receive blessings for my kids and myself from my Father in Heaven.</div>

….I walk by Faith, a daughter of Heavenly Parents. Divine am I in nature by inheritance, and some day when God has proven me, I’ll see him face to face. But just for here and now I walk by Faith. Yes just for here and now, I walk by Faith. "</div>

<br />
one for his Dad because his Dad is a cancer survivor. So Casey had been wearing<br />
<br />
the wristband for quite a while when he was diagnosed with cancer on May 2, 2011.<br />
<br />
As nurses were preparing to take him back for his 7+ hour brain surgery on Cinco<br />
<br />
de Mayo 2011, the nurses noticed that he still had his wristband on. They said that<br />
<br />
it needed to be removed. Casey was already connected to IV’s on his hand and the<br />
<br />
only way to remove it, so he could go back to surgery, was to cut it off. So the<br />
<br />
wristband was cut off and Casey’s Dad kept it to remember that Casey had worn it<br />
<br />
for him.<br />
<br />
After Casey’s surgery his brother, Mark, ordered another yellow LIVESTRONG<br />
<br />
wristband for Casey. Casey proudly sported the wristband for not only his Dad but<br />
<br />
for himself.<br />
<br />
For a Christmas gift I decided that Casey needed something more on his<br />
<br />
wristband. Together we decided that in addition to the LIVESTRONG, on the<br />
<br />
other side of the wristband we would add SURVIVESTRONG and a new wristband<br />
<br />
was made.<br />
<br />
Casey kept his wristband on and never took it off until I removed it for him. It<br />
<br />
was December of 2013 and we were in the hospital in California and I decided that<br />
<br />
I had better remove the wristband before anyone decided the cut this one off.<br />
<br />
When we got back to the U of U and we found out what was going on, I decided<br />
<br />
that I was going to have a special wristband made for myself and the kids so that<br />
<br />
we could keep wearing his wristband for him. I ran this past my sister, Ruth, and<br />
<br />
we came up with a new slogan of BE CASEYSTRONG. She suggested that we order<br />
<br />
some for friends and family so they could wear them also. So instead of ordering<br />
<br />
them off of the LIVESTRONG website we ordered them from another website to<br />
<br />
save on the cost of making them. Because of copyright issues the other website<br />
<br />
wouldn’t allow CASEYSTRONG so we changed it to BE CASEY-STRONG. We didn’t<br />
<br />
order it on the normal brain cancer color, but in Casey’s yellow wristband color.<br />
<br />
One of our sweet neighbors also made this slogan into vinyl and I get to sport BE<br />
<br />
CASEY-STRONG on my car, which is fabulous!<br />
<br />
Do I need this bracelet on my wrist to remind me of Casey? Absolutely not! But I<br />
<br />
wear this bracelet and will live by this slogan to honor Casey and all that he stood<br />
<br />
for. I send a message to everyone to live each day to its fullest. Spend quality<br />
<br />
time with your family and those that mean so much to you. And most of all live how<br />
<br />
the Lord would have you live" :)<br />

<div class="p1">
Casey Ryan Wheeler was born in Ogden, Utah on May 24, 1977. The son of Robyn and Stephen Wheeler and the youngest of four children. He grew up in Morgan, Utah. An active child with an extreme love of sports, undeniable determination, and a charismatic sense of humor. His athletic escapades included countless ice hockey games on the neighbor’s frozen pond with his childhood friends. However, even as a young man, his extreme caring and generosity towards others contradicted his true age. True to his giving nature, he served an LDS mission in London, England.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Like the charming romantic he was, Casey proposed to his cherished sweetheart on a sunset plane ride.<i> </i>He was sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake City Temple to the love of his life, Angela Silver, on July 22, 2005. They welcomed two children into their family: Max, now 5 years of age, and Tenley who just turned 3. Casey adored spending time with his family. He taught his son and daughter the true meaning of love and the art of sincere forgiveness. He enjoyed playing basketball and the occasional round of golf. He was also very active in his Syracuse LDS Ward, especially with the Young Men’s Program. He relished contributing his time assisting others in need, and constantly would strive to inspire others to reach their ultimate potential. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Casey graduated from Weber State University with a Bachelors Degree in Business, emphasis in Marketing. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Casey had battled with brain cancer since May 2, 2011. Showing the heart and courageousness of a true warrior, he fought with every ounce of strength that God had bestowed upon his body and spirit. He surpassed all expectations of the Doctors, enduring rigorous treatments, 2 extensive surgeries, and countless setbacks. His fierce determination to stay on this Earth for every moment that he could with his loved ones, was a show of strength that may only be replicated by a chosen few, but will inspire everyone who ever knew him. On Sunday, January 19, 2014, at 2:31am Casey passed through the veil. Surrounded by his treasured family and loved ones, he once again returned to his Heavenly Home to watch over and protect them from above, just as he had when he walked upon this Earth. <br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>Casey is survived by his wife Angela Wheeler and his two young children: Max and Tenley. He is also survived by his Mother and Father, Robyn and Stephen Wheeler, and his siblings: Monica (Ben), Brant (Jennifer) and Mark (Laura) and their Families.</div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The viewing for Casey will be held on Thursday, January 23<sup>rd</sup> 6:00-8:00pm at Lindquist Layton Mortuary at 1867 N. Fairfield Road. Funeral Services will be held Friday, January 24<sup>th</sup> at 11:00am at the Morgan Stake Center at 355 N. 700 E. in Morgan. There will be a viewing from 9:30-10:30am on Friday before the Funeral takes place. </div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the 1<sup>st</sup> Bank in Morgan under the account of “Kickin’ Cancer for Casey," or to Casey's fundraiser (here on the blog).</div>

Also something that's very important! We will be collecting stories about Casey's life to put together for his children to have when they're older. We would like to give them every possible opportunity to get to know their wonderful daddy better. Please help us by being prepared with a story, experience, memory, and/or thought to share at the viewing or funeral services if at all possible. We will have paper to write your thoughts and stories down and also video cameras to record your memories and wild stories. If you could also use #bringingcaseyhome on instagram to post a photo of yourself/your family and state who you are and how you met Casey that would be great. I think it would be wonderful to get all of the people Casey influenced in a book so the kids know what a caring man he was.<br />
<br />
If non of these appeal to you than feel free to compose your stories in an email and send them to: angiewheeler99@gmail.com or ruthiesilver@gmail.com<br />
<br />
Please also email any photos that you have of casey that you'd like to share, we would love to have them for the kids' books!</div>

He still seems to be comfortable though and thats good.<br />
<br />
Here's two quick, sweet stories for you. <br />
<br />
Multiple times throughout the last week or so Max has said something very important, "I'm going to miss daddy because he's going to be an angel soon. But I'm going to miss daddy." I'm glad that he's been able to understand that little bit about what's happening so it will help him in the future.<br />
<br />
This morning Tenley went to give her daddy his morning kisses. After three kisses, Casey moaned trying to talk to her. Tenley and her honest kid self said, "Mommy, daddy's purring! He likes my kisses,"and then continued to give him multiple more.Ruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12802016924182405674noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349947543912138494.post-44834005775413877042014-01-17T00:23:00.001-08:002014-01-17T00:33:14.828-08:00Wednesday & Thursday First of all, I'd like to start off by telling everyone how wonderfully amazing the entire Wheeler family is!!<br />

<br />
Casey's parents, Robyn and Steve, have been so incredible to let so many dozens (hundreds?) of people wander in and out of their home at all times through out the day. They have don't complained, have always been so welcoming to everyone, and ready to help with whatever is needed. Including me staying over for days and taking up a room in their home.<br />

<br />
Casey's brother Mark, and his wife Laura, have been so wonderful at helping take Max and Tenley to their home near by for long periods of time so the kids can have fun playing with nieces and nephews, and so Angie can get some needed free time. Mark is also always coming over to give foot messages to Casey and he loves them!<br />

<br />
Casey's other brother Brant, and his wife Jen, are always taking time to come down from Kaysville to see Angie and Casey and help out whatever they can. Their kids are also good playing buddies for Max and T when they come over!<br />
<br />
Casey's sister Monica is over pretty much everyday! She's always cleaning up from all us visitors and managing the tornados the kids leave behind. All of her family is a huge help.<br />
<br />
They are all amazing to Casey, Angie, Max, and T!!! And we all thank them and love them for it!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Wednesday:<br />
<br />
<br />
Wednesday was a quiet day at the house. Quite peaceful and simple really (compared to lots of the other days in my opinion). Casey slept a good majority of the day since he's getting even more tired now, but boy has he been trying to talk more. I don't know where he gets the energy from but he was making all kinds of noises in an effort to try and get words out. It was very impressive and rather sweet, I liked it a lot. He woke up periodically throughout the day but not as much as before. It's interesting to me that his cough seems to have gotten a bit better. He doesn't cough as much so he isn't in need of as much medicine, and the deep rumble that was in his chest when he breathed is gone.<br />
<br />
The kids and I spent a while in the afternoon building and playing with those awesome marble contraptions. I'm pretty impressed with myself.<br />

Then all of us including Angie went outside in the snow and visited the neighbors animals.<br />

I ended up taking the kids to a sweet neighbors house in Syracuse to spend the night. This way Max could attend school the next morning before coming home. It also allowed Angie to get a good length of down time to relax, go to bed early, and sleep in.<br />
<br />
<br />
Thursday:<br />
<br />
Today is definitely the most tired I have seen Casey. He was able to wake up a few times for a few minutes while we were there tonight, and did briefly hold people's hands, but I think he is nearing his heaven-date. Most of his close family was there and we enjoyed being able to see them again tonight.<br />
<br />
A moment that sticks out to me that happened tonight was when Max was saying goodnight to his daddy. We was very willing and enjoyed being lifted up in the dad to reach his arms up and give his daddy a big hug and a kiss goodnight. After he kissed him he said the classic saying that every parent loves to here before bed. "Goodnight. I love you daddy!" As soon as he finished saying the last word, Casey immediately moaned back as he tried to speak to him. I'm sure he was returning the I love you favor. :-)<br />

To end, just reminding you that if you'd like to donate to Caseys fund, and haven't yet for whatever reason, there's still time to do it if you'd like to.<br />
<br />
Thank you all, and know that we appreciate your love, help, and friendships!Ruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12802016924182405674noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349947543912138494.post-63568237792641649752014-01-15T07:14:00.001-08:002014-01-15T07:28:25.241-08:00Tuesday <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Me and my younger brother Jimmy were able to go up and see Casey and we had a nice time. Jimmy immediately got all of Tenley and Max's attention since we were the only visitors in the home and they had not seen him in quite a few days, fresh meat. ;) Despite him trying to avoid children climbing up on his shoulders, he soon became a walking jungle gym. Followed by playing a game of, 'Attack of the stuffed animal chickens.' Which included a chicken chasing someone else's chicken so they could put it in time out. So cute!<br />

<br />
After we were able to eat some delicious food brought over by very sweet people in the ward, we spent some time with Casey while Angie put the kids to bed. It was very nice to see that as Jim and I were talking and massaging Casey feet, he kept making sounds from his mouth because he was trying to talk back to us. We were also very glad that even though he is getting more tired everyday, he was able to be wide awake for us a good majority of the time we were there.<br />
<br />
Max had his first day going back to school and Angie also said that a hospice workers came in and played the harp for Casey! That's so awesome and I'm so bummed I missed it. Everyone enjoyed the music and the change of being able to do something new even though they didn't really leave the house.<br />

<br />
In regards to the update on Caseys current health.. He has definitely lost a lot of weight since his body has been pulling from it to get the nutrients it needs since he can't have food or liquids besides the needed medicines. His hand holds aren't as strong or held as long, although he still loves the company of family around him. His oxygen and heart rate are still good, but his output has dropped significantly. A change in output like this is one of the signs they told us to look for, so we should be seeing changes in his vitals soon as well.<br />
<br />
Thank you for all of your needed prayers you have given in our behalf!!!<br />

TREAUSURES<br />
<br />
"Today I am thinking about treasures. If I asked Max about treasure he would most likely tell me that it is pirate’s treasure because he is totally into pirates. The treasure that I have been thinking about the last two days is more along the treasure that you can’t actually touch, but the treasure that has always been there. That is the treasure of spending quality time with those we love. We seem to take for granted sometimes in our daily lives those that mean the most to us. We get busy with things on our own agenda and neglect those things that really matter to us. These last few days I have spent with Casey are days that I will forever treasure in my heart and my mind. When everyone else goes to sleep I like to snuggle up with Casey and we like to chat, read scriptures and say our nightly prayers just like we usually do. He seems to be pretty alert at this time of night for a little while and I think he is also treasuring being together for what may be our last moments together. So remember to always treasure those you love and never, ever take them for granted. I am so glad that I am allowed this time to be able to say goodbye to my honey :) "<br />

And here is a quick update :<br />
Casey is still holding strong and the hospice nurse said that since his vitals and color are still so good for someone in his position, he might even hold out for another week. That's crazy! And very weird; especially since we were not even expecting him to be here still. We will continue to still just take it day by day, step by step.Ruthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12802016924182405674noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349947543912138494.post-85484710588586419862014-01-11T23:07:00.000-08:002014-01-11T23:15:51.651-08:00Saturday Casey still has an iron grip of a hand hold that at times is actually rather hard to escape from. How someone can do that when they have been off an iv and feeding tube for 8 1/2 days is beyond my understanding! Nothing but medicines that have been diluted thin enough to easily pass through his feeding tube. His coloring is still good and the coughing seems to be less frequent and violent, which is good, because that's what seems to make him the most uneasy (plus, it just breaks your heart to see him trying so hard to just cough, something I most definitely take for granted. Those who have seen a situation like this will understand even better). Also, he seemed to be able to focus more on the person who was talking to him which was really nice to see and made you feel much more special to be by his side. Lots of times it seems as if he is just looking past you as more of a reflex than a controlled action.<br />
<br />
My mom and I recently switched places staying in Morgan and she told me such a sweet story that happened last night. Casey's breathing had become very irregular making very long pauses before taking another short stretch of breathes. After this had been going on for a little bit Angie decided to lay next to Casey for some snuggle time, and he loved it! He calmed right down and his breathing soon became more regular and without as many deep breathes. Casey was able to sleep so much more soundly throughout the night giving them both a needed good nights rest. Love and comfort is a wonderful thing, this just goes to prove that.<br />
<br />
Something else has come up the last few days while all kinds of us family members have been chatting.... The topic of the veil thinning between heaven and earth. I hadn't really given it much thought but I found it interesting and definitely something that could and should be happening. We are wondering if Casey is not only seeing us in the room but all the angels around awaiting his journey to heaven. And if that's the case, then oh how full those rooms must always be! I know that I have definitely felt like sometimes there has been extra help around. We wish we could know what he's thinking and see what he's seeing.<br />
<br />
Thank you all for you endless love and all the support you have shown!! I also want you to know that the comfort you have given us all through your prayers is felt so much!!! Personally, I know there is no way I would be feeling this okay, or functioning this well without all of you! Thank you! And may you all be blessed for your service!<br />

When we spoke with the hospice doctor yesterday he explained it to us very well by telling us about how mother nature understands what the body needs in times like this. With his body being so tired and starting to shut down in an effort to conserve energy, he really can't feel the pain and isn't in any. And when he does for some reason, like when we move him around, you can tell it hurts from the grimace on his face or little moan. So he's okay :) and he really does look so peaceful most of the time.<br />
<br />
Despite his deepening and staggering breathes Casey made little smiles today!!! :) I think about 4 times! He smiled when he heard Angie and his mom talking about a bird making noises outside the house, and when he talked to my sister and brother in law on the phone, when I told him Angie was coming down from a nice nap to see him, and when she walked into the room... It was wonderful. There was quite a bit of arm movement too, and he was very alert with his eyes open wide this evening when lots of his family came over to talk and spend time with him and the rest of us.<br />
<br />
With Casey seeming to do better today, it reminds me of being warned about the part where they seem to be getting better before they start the last decline. So we will see what happens during the night and then the day tomorrow; and until Casey is called back to the home from which he came, we will continue to cherish him, hold his hand, and love every single minute we hear him breathe!<br />

The hospice doctor was able to come over for a while and talk to us about many things and answer our questions.<br />

<br />
Casey's vitals started to change in the morning and show the first signs of the final decline. But than, in true Casey fashion, they went back to normal and stayed there for a good part of the day. They fluctuated again in the evening and it should keep going back and forth a bit until things get more serious and he starts showing more or stronger signs of change. He's definitely getting more tiered, moving around a lot less, and keeping his eyes closed more. Breathing is getting heavier and deeper and we are very grateful for the great cough medicines we are able to give him that help him a lot.<br />
<br />
There is still a wonderful feeling of peace and love in the Wheeler home.<br />
