This is for Emily and Adam. They shared a love of music and listened to it together every day.

She asked me to post a music memorial here for him. So....

Adam and Emily's current favorite song,

Metallica's Unforgiven 2...






Another Em asked me to post is

Death Magnetics The Day That Never Comes





I'd also like to include for Emily, the song that Adam always played for her... It will be played at his funeral.

Hinder's Lips of An Angel





Several people have thanked me for sharing our Adam with CS. That means a lot to us, he was a special young man. Emily and Adam had a special friendship. It was a pure love, young and unfettered even by what they were going through.

Adam refused to go into surgery without Emily's picture. He died with it clutched in his hand.

So, for Emily and Adam, please join me. Post a song, for them, or just something special to you.

Ever since I saw the first Highlander movie.

Queen's - Who wants to live forever was always heartbreaking to watch.

I think it's a befitting song for such an inspiring young man.

I dedicate the tribute to Aaliyah, 'i miss you'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qioyc6KvuY
It was done by Aaliyah herself, about losing her love, but she tragically died, and we instead think about losing her, when we hear it. 'We' being her fans. I hope Em likes it, it may bring tears to her eyes, but it also might express what she is feeling now.

Here's another one by the late Lisa 'left eye' Lopes. 'A new star is born' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-yBNWeWNXk


"A New Star Is Born"

I believe when someone passes away
Either a star is born, energy so pure
That it creates new worlds
Or as the soul releases
Shatters into pieces
Becoming free flowing thoughts
For my mental thesis
Maybe we just don't understand
The spirits that still walk the land
Or whatever the case
I believe that we all still remain
To share the same space


I am truly sorry Em has to go through this, being so young. I lost my mother at 14, and even though i lost the most incredible love i was ever blessed to experience, i am greatful i had the short time to share it with her. Em will learn a lot through this hard experience, even with the pain. She is so young, but it is a joy to know she felt love for her young friend. She is very fortunate to have a mother like you, because your love for her, seems like the kind any woman would want to give their own kids.



May he rest in peace.


hug

Sweetie, he was my daughter's best friend. He died Monday in surgery of a brain hemorrhage. They were trying to remove a brain tumor. He was 14.

Give a hug to Em for me.

"Don't Cry" - GnR - As ispiring as he had been, I don't think he'd want anyone to cry for him, and instead rejoyce in the life he led.

We were pretty shocked. So many people here were sending thoughts and prayers, and knowing that brain surgery is successfully done all the time, it was just such a surprise.

He lost his dad 5 months ago in Iraq, so his mom is dealing with a lot.

I agree Rich, like the song Life is Beautiful says..


There's nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful.
Will you swear on your life,
That no one will cry at my funeral?


He liked this song. I want to celebrate his life, not his death.
