CAY YOU'RE AN ANGEL ON EARTH NO MORE
YOU KNEW YOUR TIME WAS NEAR
IT'S WITH HEAVEN'S ANGELS YOU SORE
YOU WAITED FOR MY PRESENCE, MY DEAR
WHEN YOU LAST OPENED YOUR PRETTY EYES
I WAS THERE HOLDING YOU CLOSE
WE BOTH SAID OUR FINAL GOOD BYES
AND YOU WERE TAKEN BY A HEAVENLY HOST
TO SEE LOVED ONES PASSED WAITING FOR YOU
HEAVEN'S GATE WAITING OPEN FOR YOU, CAY
WAITING ANGEL WINGS FITTED JUST FOR YOU
EARNED BY THE WAY YOU LIVED DAY TO DAY
YOUR PRESENCE HERE ON EARTH WILL BE MISSED
WE CAN ONLY HOPE WE LEARNED FROM YOU
THROUGH YOUR LOVE AND CARING WAYS, YOU WISHED
THAT WE COULD ALL LEARN FAITH LIKE YOU
CAY YOU'RE AN ANGEL ON EARTH NO MORE
YOU'RE SUFFERING HERE ON EARTH IS THROUGH
IT'S WITH HEAVENLY ANGELS YOU SORE
I THANK THE LORD YOU TAKING YOU
WITH YOUR NEW WINGS YOU HOVER ABOVE
TO WATCH LOVED ONES SAY OUR GOOD BYES
YOU SEE THE OUTPOUR OF PRAYERS AND LOVE
PLEASE WATCH OVER US FROM HEAVENLY SKIES
I WAS GLAD I WAS THERE AT THE END
TO SEE YOU, HOLD YOU AND SAY GOOD BYE
BUT I'LL MISS YOU HERE TIL GOD KNOWS WHEN
CAY, MY ANGEL WATCH OVER ME FROM HEAVEN'S SKY
A Tribute To My Mom
I will never forget my mom. Though not as sturdy as others, she is my
bridge.
When I needed to get across, she steadied herself long enough for me to run across safety.
And I know God could not be everywhere so he made you.
Your loving son Dan

I just became aware of Cays work, tonight. I feel a profound sense of loss for having not known earlier and been able to communicate the feelings inspired by the same.
Be well in your path, Cay. And for the family, rest a bit more easily in the knowledge that even past this life, the work of Cay goes on... and reaches and touches others!

I am not sure of the year of the loss of Cay, (there is no year posted), but after listening to some of the sentimental songs on this web page, and then coming across the notice of Cay's loss, I was very much in the mood to send my condolences, and sympathies to the family and friends of Cay, those that are left with her memories. I dont know you, but I miss you. I wish i had known you. Sleep with Angels, Cay Sincerely, Russell Munson Phelan, CA

My Dearest Family, Cay's Family and Friends. I add to Dan and Tammy's mesasage. We and I mean all of us who knew Cay are suffering the lost of a dear and sweet Lady. I am glad I was part of her life even if for just 2 short years. We packed alot of life and love into those years. We did things she had on her list of things to do before she parted this world to the life everlasting. We had fun and enjoyed each others companionship in our love and marraige. We went places and seen sunrises on beaches so pure and then traveled to see the sunset on the other side of the Island and share our thoughts and a beer.
Cay relished each and everyday as if it may be her last. She shared her love of life with many of you, she shared her pain on her web pages, so that those of you in her shoes could have someone to relate and turn to when you needed a boost or a shoulder.
I will miss her physical presence in my life, but I know because I still have her love in my heart, she lives on. I know where she is now, she is in a perfect body and feels no pain and is an Angel on earth no more.
Remember her in your hearts always and remember the lessons and love she passed on to one and all. I along with my family thank you for all your kind works and sympathy. She will surely be missed.
Again Thank You, Carlos deMattos

Dear Friends,
Words will never be able to express how touched Tammy & I felt after reading each and everyone's letter to my mom. She was truly blessed to have such caring family & friends. I know God heard every prayer. God bless each and every one of you.
I also know some of you are going through the same fight my Mom was going through. So I pray God gives you the strength to fight and the Grace to continue to lift his children, who are unable to lift themselves.
With love Dan & Tammy Campbell

Growing up as a young boy, I was always amazed at Cay's wit. Her attitude towards life and the internal flame that burned within her has and always will have a lasting impression with me. I hope when my time comes I have had the same impact on others as she had to so many good people. She left us all with many pleasant memories.

Cay, I went back and read all of the Cancer Wall pages on your website and realized that the Gardian Angel Prayer was your last. You must have known something back then and was afraid to tell everyone else. But knowing you, you thought you would spare them some of the pain and suffering. As I cared for you during the months of chemo (aka our other name for it Rat Poison) treatments I learned patience, understanding, tenderness, caring and love from you. You were and always will be my Lady Lace, my Baby, my Cay, my Wife. I love you, I'll be there this week comming to be by your side. Love Dink

My best friend in the whole world, what can I say??? Other than I love you and miss you so very much. We had a rocky start and we went from one end of the spectrum to the other in our friendship. Just know that you have meant more to me and always been there for me more than anyone else. I'm looking in that "mirror" and trying to find a reason for this to happen to you. You're so good and you're one of the best people that have ever entered my life. I'm so glad I got to see you and Carlos. I'm so glad you found happiness with him. Sometimes God puts people in our lives for a reason, and you were put in mine when I needed you most. I can only hope that I was put into yours to make it a little brighter. You understood me like no one else has and the funny thing is you always felt and thought the same way I did. I love you, and I will see you soon.........Linnie

Hello Cay, My massege to you is; 'keep the faith.' As Jesus was about to be put to death, perhaps, after praying that this death should be taken away from Him; He said to His heavenly father not my will but thy be done. Cay, our ways are not God's ways. He knows what is right. He is the all-knowing God, a merciful and immortal God. He can do somethings at a time we least expected. If he can raise a dead being how much more a living sick person. Cay, I love you and pray God to incline His ears and listen to our prayers and supplications. Don't you ever underestimate what God can do. Like I earlier said, keep the faith. God is merciful. Be cured in Jesus name. Amen. Bye.

Dear Cay, Never in a million years would I have thought that you wouldn't always be around to tease me or to make me laugh, but I guess God has a better plan for you. I will treasure forever all the memories that we share. Beginning with those when I was a spoiled teenaged girl arguing with you in my mom's kitchen, to my wedding day when you helped me get my veil straight. You have been a great friend to me and my family for many years and you will be missed by everyone whose life you have touched. I am so glad that I have had the priviledge to know and love you. Love Always! Amy

Cay, You came into our life at one of the lowest points we have ever been at. You came with such a loving, giving spirit that only one of God's "special" angels could be inside that body that stood beside us. There is not a day we don't think of you with a smile. You also must know what a wonderful son you have raised. I would like to say thank you for being the person you are and the way you have touched our lives. Donald and Dyan
Cay,
You are such a special person. I will tell you one thing you did very well and that was to have and raise such a wonderful son. You are so blessed to have him and his family so close and so ready to do whatever it takes to make you happy and loved. There's not a day that goes by that Donald and I don't think of you. I thank God for giving us the blessing of your friendship.

Dear Mom , Just wanted to tell you how much I love you . We have been praying for you. Just remember that God is always in control. Whatever God decides too do , You should be so proud because you have two great boys that you have done so well with. If God decides to take you home, well that would mean one more beautiful Angel in Gods kingdom. Stay strong in your faith and don`t worry about Dan or John you have done a great job with them. Remember all the hard times we all had in Calera . actually them were good times. I think them times brought us closer. Well, I love you and will be praying . Love your oldest son, James Blanchard .

Cay, The times we have shared together have been wonderful, shopping for floppy hats to cover a bald head and the laughs we have shared..
I will always cherish the three day's you and Carlos spent with my family and me. In August I will never forget our having "oysters" on the half shell, the laughs we had and your dancing eye's ....You know we aren't blood sister's we are much closer,The secrets we have shared and the tears we have shed and how we have pushed each other, means the world to me.... This hasn't been an easy time for you,and as one who cares about you, there have been so many moments when I've wished I could have somehow spared you some of the pain, or at least cushioned the blows.But it seems we each have our own roads to travel in life. For awhile, we're on a smooth well-worn path, then suddenly the road swerves.... But Sis you know what?I've watched you with admiration as you have faced difficulty with strength and courage, and even in those times when you may have wanted to give up, you somehow found it in yourself to carry on...and I just know you will continue to do so.. You are a remarkable person, And even though this is your road to travel, be sure to look along the side from time to time. The person you'll see there, the one cheering you on, will be me.!! I love you Sis, and you are in our prayers daily..

Through my mom, I've felt like I've known you. She's always spoken so highly of you as if your sisterhood was bound by blood, and I know that can only mean you're a wonderful person. I've never really had the chance to chat with you individually, but anyone my mother is close with, I instinctively love as well. If you must feel like now is your time, than at least spend the rest of it knowing you have such amazing friends, who would fight off the pain if they really could. Remember though... miracles happen every day and you never know if your turn's next. You're in my prayers. ~~ Elizabeth (Kat's daughter)

Dear Cay,
Although you do not know me, through the gift of your pages I feel as though I know you. I am sorry to hear of your struggles with your health. I am praying that God in His infinite wisdom will hold you in His arms and give you the healing blessings of His love and glory. May the Lord's peace and serenity be the gifts that you find in each and every day. And may the prayers of friends and family alike bring comfort in these difficult days you are facing.
Always remember, Cay..... "You are never alone!". Your Lord, and your Savior will not forsake you in your time of greatest need. He is there for all His children. His love is infinite and abundant, and has no end. Wrap yourself in the cloak of His love when you are feeling lost and lonely, and His love will keep you safe and warm.
Peace and blessings to you, my unseen friend.....you are in my prayers!
Fondly, Dusty

his embrace and if he wants to keep you there, then you know you are in good arms....If
not, then we will have you back making those beautiful pages only Lace can make....You
gave me encouragement when I was ill and now it's my turn...You are a very strong woman to
have endured all that you have and you will make it through this with the great faith of a
devout Catholic that you are...God awaits us all with open arms..My greatest wish is that
if it time for your journey to begin, that it be as beautiful as the one that you shared
with us your friends through your friendship and beautiful and inspiring pages full of
love and joy....But please get well....I love you.....Annie

Cay;dang it girl, I so hoped you would go on for ages...at least as long as I and that's a heap. I feel bad, your so good and I've been rowdy, rough and worthless...at times. Now that my end is nearer I have changed but that don't make what's happened to you any better. I guess I want you to know that I will never forget what you have gone through, how nice a friend you have been to Kat, your courage and endurance has impressed me and my life is better for knowing you. My eyes are damp but my prayers are strong...I pray god shows mercy, I pray he treats you as the special angel you are, that the peace and goodness you have shown us all lives on to make us all better/nicer as long as we reside on earth.Fear not, for God and all of us that know of you, love you. That's so easy to do Cay...you're special.

I love you... btw... Bite me
