Profile Information

About Me:
Married, Mother of 3 daughters, full-time job and full-time mommy. I am finding ways to bring back my smile.
About my Loss:
I was the big sister to a little mister. At the age of 12 I lost my little brother in a tragic car accident. He was only 8 years old. I have struggled for years to find myself. I have struggled with fear. The fear that something terrible would happen to my own children. Raising my girls has been a challenge. I think the worst will happen and now I have anxiety issues that are barely controlled. I am learning how to express my feelings, give hope and help others. Occupying my mind with things I love is the only solution I have found to help myself and others. Taking the time to listen to others and creating something spectacular for their loved ones gravesite. Our loved one may be gone, but they are never forgotten.
Are You a Service Provider? If Yes, please tell us about your service.
I take the time to listen and take the time to create.
I create custom cemetery arrangements for families who have lost loved ones.
It has been a passion to go the gravesite and decorate stones with families whom are grieving. We talk and grieve together. We also talk about wonderful memories of the past. I provide this service free for my local community. Our loved one may be gone, but they will never be forgotten. Cemetery Arrangements are one way a family member shows just that. They are never forgotten!

Time Heals All Wounds, Or does IT?

As Valentines Day approaches it will make 24 years since I have seen my little brothers smile and have heard his laugh. Does time heal all wounds, No.  Time helps, but the wounds still remain. The open wounds are now covered in scare tissue. The scare is still seen as bright as the sun in my uncontrollable fear.  Fear for my own children. At the age of 12 I lost my little brother, my little mister. He was 8 when he lost his life in a fatal car accident with my grandfather. My grandfather was…

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
