Montclair, CA San Bernardino - Friday, September 9, 2011 1:35 AM CDT

Dear Rowley family~
I am the mom of 3 Aussies~ Adelaide, Mad Max and Matilda. I visited your website yesterday (after visiting the ASCA website) because I liked your name, BlessedHope Aussies. I'm looking for a mate for Max (Skittles is a doll!) Our first Aussie,10 1/2-year-old Adelaide, went to live with Jesus in Heaven on June 26,2007 6 weeks after I completed 16 weeks of Chemo for breast cancer following a bi-lateral mastectomy and a second surgery removing part of my left lung. Addie would stay up with me all night when I couldn't sleep during those 16 weeks of chemo. We knew she was sick but the Vet only treated the symptoms, not the cause. I poured over your website and was drawn to the bottom of each page and how you chose your business name. I identified with your Scripture quote...I am also a very Blessed mom as the proud mom of 5 grown 2-legged kids: MJ, Robert, Kristopher, Matthew and Laura.

I revisited BlessedHope Aussies today to show Skittles to my husband and was again drawn to the bottom of the page. I was curious to know why you were paying tribute to a commercial website...so I followed the link to HANNAH...I was 3 when my brother lost his 9-month battle with AML, in 1960...he was 9 and I became an only child. My mother was pregnant when my brother passed and she lost her baby soon thereafter. My parent's marriage did not survive so many losses in such a short period of time...The Lord has Blessed your family with many strengths and one of your greatest strengths is your Faith.

I believe things happen for a reason and I believe God gave Hannah to you because he knew you would share her with the World...and His light would Shine through her. In reading through the entries in this guest book...her light will continue to reignite the hearts of those who have lost their way to our Heavenly Father...what a tribute!

My mother is a very healthy, sprite, soon to be 92 and lives with us...a true Blessing! My parents remarried in 1984 and my father passed away in 1992. Mom endured the loss of one child and had to endure the fear of losing me...she helped to take care of me during my year of cancer and I will take care of her until she goes to live with my brother and father with Jesus in Heaven. Susi, as a mother, I admire your ability to move forward and share your Hannah with the world. I believe Abby's big sister is also her Guardian Angel, as my brother has been mine throughout my life. Your family's story has touched my heart. People tell me I am an inspiration (I don't see it!) but you and your family's story are truly an inspiration to me! May the Lord continue to Bless your family abundantly!

Hugs & Blessings,

Cindy Reeves

Hannah, Hannah, Hannah, you did not even know that you were an angel right here on earth. This earth is nobody's home. Its temporary ... we all go to our real home with Our Father Jesus. He holds His arms out stretched to receive us. He will protect you and bring you life in the home He has prepared for you and your family. My heart breaks knowing you could not experience all that you could have if you didn't not have this terrible disease. People who don't even know you Hannah, have been touched by you. You are still alive in our hearts and you continue to make a difference.

I saw your daughters story on life gem... What an amazing story. While I cant even imagine the pain that your family has endured loosing your daughter, I think her story has and will continue to change the lives of more people than you can imagine. I found the life gem web site through Oddee.com. Something compelled me to look at the website, it being something I have never heard of, and there she was, this smiling little girl and I knew the moment that I saw her picture, she had to have passed, seeing the website she was on. I am a person who my whole life has struggled with my faith and reading your daughters story not only brought me to tears but also is really making me reflect on everything. If I was to lose someone, I could not be as confident as you have been in seeing them again in heaven... i'm not sure I would be allowed in....

Thank you for being strong enough to choose to celebrate the amazing things your daughter did while here as oppose to dwell on her being gone....

I TOO, HAVE A DAUGHTER NAMED ABBE AND A SON NAMED JORDAN. WE FINALLY LEARNED HOW TO GET PAST THE PAIN, ANGER, AND MENTAL ANGUISH THAT WAS LEFT TO US BY "DEATH".
WE FIND GREAT COMFORT IN THEIR LIVES AND LOVE WITH JOURNALS & KEEPING POSTIVE THOUGHTS OF THEM WITH US ALWAYS. WE ALSO STARTED A "TRIBUTE OF PICTURES" THAT WE HAVE PLACED UP IN OUR HOME OF OUR PAST LOVED ONES... FOR EYES ARE THE WINDOWS TO OUR SOUL..
PLEASE CONTINUE YOUR JOURNAL ON LIFE AND LOVE WITH AND WITHOUT HANNAH, FOR IT KEEPS THEIR MEMORY ALIVE!
WE CELEBRATE LIFE HERE ON EARTH ONLY ONCE A YEAR WITH BIRTHDAYS... OUR LOVED ONES CELEBRATE LIFE EVERDAY, FOR LIFE IN HEAVEN IS INDEED A CELEBRATION!
INSTEAD OF MOURNING THEM, MEMORIALIZE THEM.. THAT WAY THEIR PEACEFUL LOVE AND ENERGY WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU!
LOVE, PEACE AND HAPPINESS ALWAYS...

What a special little angel Hannah is! A few days ago I lost a loved one by the name of Shelly Snow. She left behind an 11 year old daughter and a 15 year old son. She died of multiple anurisms in her brain. Hannah's story has comforted me greatly and she is an inspiration to us all. What a joy she must have been to all who knew her. I have triplet granddaughters, Alyson, Alysha and Alexus, who will be 8 this April. They have a younger sister, Katlyn, who will be 6 on February 21st. They are truly a blessing in my life. Children are truly a gift from God!

HI, MY NAME IS KAROL STOVALL AND THE MOTHER OF A SIMILAR ANGEL. MY ANGELBABY'S NAME IS HALEY AND SHE ALSO HAS A CARINGBRIDGE SITE. I CAME ACROSS HANNAH'S STORY THROUGH LIFEGEM.COM. I WAS CHECKING ON THE DIAMOND SERVICE THEY OFFER. HALEY SUFFERS FROM A DIEASE CALLED TUBEROUS SCLEROSIS AND POLYCYSTIC KIDNEY DIEASE. HALEY IS IN THE LAST STAGE OF RENAL FAILURE. SHE HAS ALSO CHANGED OR TOUCHED EACH LIFE SHE HAS COME IN CONTACT WITH. HALEY IS NOW 18 YEARS OLD AND WE ARE SO BLESSED TO STILL HAVE HER IN OUR PRESENCE. WE HAVE STRUGGLED FOR ALL HER LIFE WONDERING WHAT THIS DIEASE WILL BRING NEXT OR WHEN HER KIDNEYS WILL FAIL. SHE IS NOT A GOOD CANIDATE FOR TRANSPLANT SO, SINCE HALEY HAS AUTISM AND EPILEPSY, DEVELOPMENTALLY DELAYED AND MANY OTHER CHALLENGES FROM HER DIEASE, OUR FAMILY HAD TO MAKE THE HARDEST DECISON OF OUR LIVES AND THAT IS TO LET GOD DECIDE WHEN IT IS TIME TO CALL HER HOME. OUR FAITH AND HOPE AND ALL THE PRAYERS WE RECEIVE EACH DAY IS WHAT KEEPS US GOING. HANNAH'S STORY CAME TO ME ON A NITE THAT WAS VERY MUCH NEEDED AND SHE HELPED ME GET THROUGH IT. I DONT KNOW YOU BUT I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR HANNAH AND SHARING YOUR STORY.

I Thank God, for the opportunity for me to come to this page and to discover Hannah. Me reading her comments and how she saw life really touched me, and makes me want to change the way I look @ things and life. It just encourages me to keep on keeping on, and to keep pressing towards the mark. I want to do the will of God and desire to help God's People, I want to walk the good walk of Faith, and praying to one day as Hannah to make it into the Kingdom of God, and to hear his voice say good work my good and faithful servant. Hannah is truly a testimony! And I give God all the praises and glory for her life, and her life with him. May God con't to bless your family and strengthen you when you need him. I speak Peace, Joy, and Happiness in your families life�s in Jesus Name - Amen!

God has given you the strength to continue because Hannah had faith that she had a mission on earth. She meant unity between God and you. I read this article and my father just passed away and it has been hard and I had him for 44 years I just cant imagine the pain of your loss. I pray for your comfort and the strong belief that we will all rejoin once we part from this world that what the Lord had promised and I believe only in his word. Once more Hannah was a gift from the Lord and now she returned back home. With all my Love...

Praise God for your beautiful daughter, celebrating with God in heaven! Happy (belated) 13th birthday! I gave birth to my first child in May and instantly came to realize what a strong bond grows between mother and child. I fear the day that God separates us by death, but my daily joy with him overlaps all that! Praise God that we can teach our children...and be amazed at how awesome God made them! Who would have thought that we can make such perfect children, being so flawed ourselves?

WHAT A TESTAMENT OF FAITH HANNAH GAVE TO ALL WHO NEW HER, I DID NOT, BUT WHAT A WONDERFUL CHILD SHE WAS. I WAS EDUCATING MYSELF ON THE LIFE GEM PROCESS AND CAME ACROSS HER STORY. WHAT A WONDERFUL GIFT OUR EARTHLY BODY CAN GIVE THE SURVIVOR'S. MAY THE GOOD LORD BLESS HER MEMORY AND CONTINUE TO BLESS HER FAMILY.

And here I am 4 hours later--still up at 4am--feeling so blessed after being unable to stop reading til I'd covered every entry in the journal! Your babygirl was such an amazing beautiful strong young lady! Thank you so much for sharing her story with the world, allowing her to continue to witness to so many even beyond her way-too-short time here on earth. God is so good, please continue to remember that. I'll be praying for your family.

Just stumbled on your page today, which I've never seen before. What an amazing little girl! How odd that I found this on Hannah's birthday. I feel like God brought me here for a reason, but I'm not sure what it is. I love horses, but have never been able to afford to own one. I did take English riding lessons years ago, just to be able to ride. I also did the Walk for Life in Baton Rouge this past spring. My father died of multiple myeloma, his mother died of leukemia, his sister of breast cancer, his grandmother of some type of stomach cancer and I had thyroid cancer. We just came through Hurricane Gustav and I was feeling sorry for myself because we still have no electricity a week later. Perhaps God meant for me to see that there are worse things than going a few weeks without electricity. Some people here won't have it for 21 days and I was fearing we would be some of those people. My elderly mother is also without power, and Louisiana is very hot, even in September. (Heat index of 100 degrees expected tomorrow.) We do have a generator and tiny window AC in our living room, but my mother won't stay here. And I'm worried about her. I wish you the best. We'll meet someday in heaven, I'm sure. :) Feel free to write! I have to turn off my computer because my husband just came in from work and is about to change the oil in the generator. By the way, I have a fourteen year old daughter with epilepsy due to PVL (damage in the white matter of the brain) and premature birth. Hannah sounds quite a bit like my Molly. (Saved young, very intelligent, loves music and animals, etc.) Would love to hear from you! God bless!

You both know the feeling of going on in faith knowing that the Lord has something good, though you don't understand why you had to drink such a cup. And you both know deep inside that the Lord uses all things for His glory, and that He wanted to use what happened for His kingdom, Do you need prayer. i wanted you to know your in my thoughts and prayers for strength. i know it may get easier, but it will never get better, till you are all there together. And i know the Lord uses you all in mighty ways, so i wanted to thank you for that.

It is so refreshing to see young lives come to God. It's also amazing to see God use them in inspirational ways, even though some suffer to teach others. I know you are so proud of her. I'm proud of her and I don't know you. I know the human side of you hurts because of her death. I also know the spiritual side of you heals because of her life. She is such a beautiful child. You are blessed. My prayers are with you. And when I walk in the cancer walk in October, I'll walk for Hannah as well as others. God bless.

Hello Jerry, Susie and Abby,

I've just finished reading your story of Hannah. It was very heart wrenching. Hannah was such a smart and wonderful young girl but also she is no longer in pain. My mother lost our brother when he was 10 yrs of age (I was 3) and I never really knew what she went through. Although her pain was less every year it was still there, she always spoke about him. This past December (just after her 80th birthday) she took ill and was in the hospital until her passing Jan. 6th. When I knew she would soon be entering the gates of heaven, I reminded her that she would finally be with Kenny the son and brother who went with Jesus 57 years ago. I'll always remember the smile on her face when she realized she would finally be with him and all the other loved ones in heaven. It was a short time after that that she left us. When I start to feel sad, I remember that smile on her face, and that they are now together with Jesus. I'm not very good at writing, I hope I'm saying the right things. I know that you are all feeling the pain of your loss but like you say, when the right time comes each one of you will be reunited with Hannah again...until then remember and enjoy all the memories of Hannah and live your life to the fullest because that's what Hannah would want you to do.

My thoughts are with you and thank you Hannah for renewing my faith in God.

I am so sorry for your loss. Hannah sounded like a very special girl. She sounded someone you would lift your spirits with her heart of gold.

My brother just commited suicide and it has been very for all. He did not leave a note. It was great to read Hannah's story to know he is safe in heven.

Thank you Sam.

What loving story to hear about such a special child. It has been uplifting to hear about such kindness and gentle ways of an 8 year old child. Most adults don;t have the heart that Hannah showed.

I just lost my brother to suicide and have been out of my mind with grief. I feel so lost and empty without him. He was my best friend. No one could ever take his place in my heart.

It was great to read Hannah's hope and faith that God will take care of those whom love him and protect us with his loving son Jesus. I wanted to know what kind of faith you are.

My heart aches for your family and mine. God bless your family and Kevin in heven.

MARBLEHEAD, MA US - Sunday, May 25, 2008 7:34 PM CDT

What respect I have for such a lovely young girl to touch the lives of everyone's life. I just recently lost my best friend and life partner. He decided life was too painful to live and commited suicide on April 30, 2008. No one would of guessed how much he was hurting. His name was Kevin and was a wonderful person who brought so much love to our family, friends and all at church. He would be the one you would speak to about your problems. He was a loving, kind and gentle human being. He will be forever missed and now in God's will to have him in heven along with Jesus.
This story touched my heart so deeply. She was a wonder being so strong and such a will to live on.

I wonder where Kevin's will went when he left us all behind with questions about his dear beloved heart, mind and soul. I feel so lost without him. He was just so wonderful like your Hannah. I just wish he had the courage that Hannah had for 4 more years. Like your daughter, Kevin the love of my life was grand around everyone and the 1st to help others.

I am not sure he got so caught up in other people's problems that he didn't realize them until the end. the last 3 months Kevin had been going down hill. Very depressed and non-social. Didn't want to leave home unless I had an appt. or if we had family over. We had a few weekends that he seemed himself.

He was seeing a DR and getting meds for Depresion. He had been given the wrong med that made him try suicide three times, once by hanging himself, once by cutting into his artery in his neck and once by cutting his wrists. Two weeks he completed the suicide by hanging from a tree. I found him where we got engaged.

We were surpose to get married the next weekend from the time he hung himself. I blame myself so much for his death. I feel I could of done something to change his thoughts or had him in patient. I am an RN and both my parents and 2 of my brothers are DRS. I see the medical end of it. I am surpose to be the one with all the answers.

There isn't a moment I would give my own life just to hug him, hold his hand or speak to him in person. I ask why God took him. But from all I have read, he only takes the best.
I hope he is happy. His memoral service took place instead of the happiest day of my life, it was the sadiest. He left a parcial note for me, stating: To my love, always and forever my darling, I will meet you at this tree when your time comes and God calls for you too. The hurt was too deep and I was beyond compare with grief. I didn't know how to let you know I was in so much pain. Your family and mine only think of the logics not with emotions.

I can't be perfect for you or anyone else. In my heart I will always love you, my heart is still with you but could not go on. The hurt was way to deep. I am sorry, I will see you on your wedding day with some other. You will be happy again soon when God feels its the right time for that special person to come into your life my darling. It's my time. Don't morn me but celebrate the life we lived and all the joy we brought each other. I could not live up to everyone's expectations anymore. My heart and life were double. No one would except the fact I turned gay since I was 15. Please keep my secret to your life on earth.

Everyone and the police were there 1st and they found his note. Kevin didn't have any privacy from then on. His brother decided it would celebrate his life and let everyone know he was Gay.

Everyone though we were the perfect families. I love him dealry no matter what. I look forward to sharing life and new memories with him in mind. We too, make terrible mistakes. Mine will be forever with me. The night before we were cross with each other and rotten words were spread across each other.

He said he had some stuff and pay some bills online. Little did I know he was doing a final will and trust for me, paid the house off, both cars, all credit cards in both of our names, a list of names he would of loved to share with the two of us adopting or having a baby. We just got aproved for adoption. Our lives seemed perfect.

We had wonderful families, he from 10 kids all successful and a huge amount of nieces and nephews. Kevin was a Union MGR and I am a RN work on my NP LC. My side I have 4 brothers and am adopted by a loving wonderful affluent family. I was the only girl and when I met Kevin at College I knew he would be the only one for me. His kindness and gentleness was amazing. I miss holding his hand or cuddling.

I have decided to go forward with the adoption with twins or two or more siblings from the same family. I get live on Kevin's legacy and know he would of been a wonderdful help and loving Dad.

Now looking back he was Gay. But I ignored it. We all thought he had great taste and a super cook. He was amazing with everyone and loved to entertain.

My awe-inspiring gifts will never be forgotten.
He had a table for two with a band and on gorgous summer night he gave me a ring and asked me to marry him and be his partner for life. Of course, I said I do!!! He then had a wait staff bring our seafood dinners for two and a lovely evening I will hold in my heart forever.

He threw the best Birthday and any party etc. Kevin was a wonderful person I will never stop loving. I found this Life Gem and do want to become a customer since Hannah was such a wonderful inspariation to all.

I hope Hannah and Kevin get along well and sometimes visit our big oak tree we shared so many precious moments there. Please Hannah and Kevin my darling I realize you are not in pain anymore. I am so so sorry I was not there for you to be for assistance and realize something was terribly wrong.
I wish I could take back all that I said about your Mom and family. I wish you were right here by my side. I miss you more than you'll ever know. When God calls me, please be there to hold my hand so we can be together forever. Please look for me in Marblehead by the neck.

Love you always and forever my darling Kevin,
Foever our hearts, souls and minds will always be there for each other.

My name is Tamika L. Romayne. I am a Funeral Director in Illinois. I was doing research about LifeGems and came upon Hannah's story on the companies website. This week has been pretty rough to me. I know that God led me to Hannah's website. From reading on her life, in this short amount of time, the things that I take for granted were flashed at me. Life is something that should be embraced. Hannah's story encouraged me to smile in the midst of sadness and keep going in the struggles of pain.
Helping wonderful and supportive families like Hannah's makes my career much more...it makes it my ministry.

For some reason I was led to Hannah's story today, and it brought tears to my eyes...tears of sadness and tears of joy. What a blessing her story is for me, a stranger, but also a sister in Christ. I linked through the LifeGem site, which I viewed because my sister is interested in what they do. Hannah was featured, and I read and bookmarked and forwarded her story. I raised thoroughbred horses and rode hunters and taught lessons and showed for years, until I was injured too badly to continue. My daughters foal-watched with me, and I woke them up many and most times when the foals (over one hundred) were born. We live on a large cattle ranch, which my husband manages. It is a great life. Now one of my daughters is married and the other is finishing her studies in college to be a missionary. She is going on her second mission trip this summer. I am very blessed to have my husband and my children, and we are very close. I just wanted to write to tell you that Hannah's story was also a blessing to me, and I thank you for having it and her webpage.

The Lord is faithful. Even though we don't always understand, i find that HE is altogether wise. He is altogether loving, HE is altogether true. HE gave us His peace, when we have His Son, we don't have to go through any thing alone. On that day, He will bring to pass all that is done in His name, we will all be there and we will all worship Him together with song.

I stumbled upon Hannah's story on the lifegem website, and subsequently followed the links here. Wow! You were truly blessed to have Hannah in your life! Hannah's story is truly amazing! Reading a story like that helps to put life in perspective. It makes our daily problems and issues in life trivial at best. Your family was quite brave in the face of something so devastating. I'm not sure I could be that brave if One of my children were going through something like that. Hope all is well with you and your family, and thank you for sharing such an intimate part of your life. While terribly sad, it definitely is uplifting as well. It renews and strngthens our sometimes wavering faith, Thanks again!

What a blessing Hannah's was to your family and to the world. I found her site through LifeGem and read all of her stories. It touched my heart deeply...I've lost two children (early births) and it lifted my spirits to hear how thrilled she was about being with Jesus. My first child was a little boy (Little Ricky) that was never strong enough to come home. I lost my second child too early in the last pregnancy and now I am blessed with a granddaughter that we are adopting. Like Hannah was to you, she is the light of our life. I like to think all of the children we've lost our waiting patiently with Jesus until their mommy's and daddy's come home too. In His love, Debbi Manley

I must confess that I clicked on the Life Gem ad on the Fox News website. That is where I read the story of your precious daughter. As you approach yet another anniversary of her death please continue to celebrate her life. She sounds so special. I am a Christian. Still I always have thought that the hardest to accept is the death of a child. It takes the supernatural love and strength of our Savior to get through it. May God continue to give you comfort every day until you see her again.

I am working the shift as a 911 operator in Calif. I was reading the foxs news website and saw something about a Life Gem. I read Hannah's story. Today is 4/25/08, I can't believe how close to Hannah's anniversary date it is. I found myself in tears and thoughts of my great niece Mairra. She was 6 and died of the flu May 4, 2007. I'm so glad to know Hannah was waiting for Mairra in Heaven. I will never forget Hannah. Love and Blessing, Laura Bulfinch

I ran across your daughters story at lifegem. I was looking becuase I am a cancer surviving patient. I am 29 and I have four beautiful children I would like to leave my life as a gift in a diamond someday . Cancer is very hard to walk through but I cannot imagine the strength it must have taken to be 8 and walk her journey . What an amazing little girl. My heart is with you as you come across your date of heavens crossing with little hannah. My recommendations...do what hannah would have done if it was someone she loved that passed. Would she have sat in her jammies or would she have went and praised the Lord her abba father giving him glory for their life ? I am inspired and profoundly touched by her story,thanks for sharing this with us all.Hannah is a testimony of what love is and how we carry his heart,touching people around us with his hands & heart and one day to meet again. My prayers and Heart are with you,Bree Texas

I didn't get the opportunity to meet her in person, but I feel like I knew her. She was an amazing little princess. I will get my chance to meet her when the Lord calls me home. I know it willbe my pleasure to finally meet her. I want to thank her parents for raising an inspirational young girl.

Hi Susi, We met in October 2007, when you delivered dinner to our home for my family and I. You may not remember me...But, I am reminded of you after I decided to sit down and re-read the cards that I have received from family and loved ones within the past 6 months, that's when I ran across the one you gave me...In it you included the website that tells Hannah's Story...I cannot tell you how blessed I have been, reading all about your Hannah and your family and the miles and miles you have walked by faith with God... As I read your latest journal entry I realize that this month, is a special month, and I want you to know that my family and I will be praying for you and thinking of you as you and your family cling to one another during this month... In October, our world stopped - or at least that's what it felt like - when we received the diagnosis...I was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor, barely three months after we lost by sister-in-law to the same disease, and only two months after we lost a best friend to luekemia. For a while everything seemed like we were in a fog, nothing made sense, everything ached, my heart ached for my children, for my husband, for our family & our friends... I didn't think my mom could survive this...Yet, she has walked every day with me and my husband through this season. God gives mothers an amazing strength! I see that in you, Susi! It's been 6 months since the diagnosis and that fog is lifting more and more for us...I have had surgery, 30 treatments of radiation, and am currently awaiting my 7th round of chemo. My closet, these days, consists of tons of scarves to cover my bare head...but, in the bigger picture, I know that my Father is with me, and that He will never leave me or forsake me...And Susi, that same promise is for you...He will never leave you or forsake you...You and Hannah have a wonderful story to share, and I thank God for giving you the strength and the endurance that only He can. You are amazing, and I appreciate you sharing such a precious story with the world.

Hi Susi... I met you in October 2007, when you delivered dinner to my family and I. I was re-reading all of the beautiful cards I have received in these last 6 months, and I came across yours. I am amazed and truly encouraged by you and your family's faith and strength in our Lord. I know that Hannah is in heaven with our Father with many many jewels in her crown, playing with the Lion and the Lamb. I wish I knew her, yet I feel in some way, I do know her through your story, you so courageously shared. You may not remember me, but, I was in the homeschool group at our church, home schooling my 5th grader, when our life changed drastically. I was suddenly diagnosed with a brain tumor... these past 6 months have been filled with a range of emotions that I know you understand, surgery, diagnosis, prognosis, 30 days of radiation, medications, and currently getting ready to begin my 7th round of chemo. I could go on and on...But, God is still God and He is faithful to keep His promises, no matter what, right? I know it was the Lord that had me read your card again, and I am so full of hope and encouraged by you. I was so foggy when we first met, thank God He is leading me through that fog where I am seeing more clearly, His plan. Thank you for sharing your story...I created a Caring Bridge site as well, please visit...You are in my prayers this month...God will never leave you or forsake you ~ Be encouraged, my friend, be encouraged.

Also in your daughter Abby. And i wanted to thank you for that. i know that with time it doesn't really get better or even easier, you still have a longing for your loved one, and yet, you know she is safe and that you will be with her again. That's the thing we can trust the Lord for when we know Him, and we do not have to fear. Your family is truly amazing and i am blessed to know you.

No one can ever tell you they know how you feel until they have had to face this situation, I know because I lost my daughter last February 10,2007. She was 40 when GOD took her. She had epilepsy all her life so I can relate in a way of your loss. May GOD Bless you & your family! Kay Howell

Hello, Rowleys! Susi, it's great to see an update from your heart once again. You all were on my mind this morning, so I just thought I'd let you know. It's so amazing how Hannah is still touching lives, but then again, I shouldn't be surprised, huh? Good to hear about less patching for Abby! I pray that you are all healthy and resting up for the next rush. Unless I'm sick, I would love to help you this time. Just give us a call. Love you!

My mom died in 2005 due to CLL, and my daughter grew her hair for the last 2 years to donate to locks for love. She cut 12 inches off Jan 2008. My mom wanted my kids to not worry about her but to do for the children.

Hi Suzy, you may not remember me, I used to groom dogs in my garage there in Sky Country. I only met Hannah one time when she came with you to pick up your dogs, but something about that little girl touched me so profoundly that I have followed her life story closely through her website and through others who know your family, I only wish that I could have known her and known your family more personally. I pray that one day I have your faith and strength through God and our Savior! I hope you don't mind, but Hannah left such an imprint on my heart that I named my beautiful creme filly that was born in June (the year that Hannah went to Heaven) after her. This filly has a truly remarkable and gentle spirit...we just love her. God bless you and your family, you have touched many lives more than you know!

To the Rowley family. Here is a brief letter I wrote to our local paper, it sums up my feelings about amazing people like Hannah, and the place awaiting all of God's children!

Home for Christmas

As multitudes of Christmas songs are rehashed this year, one in particular always catches my ear, "I'll Be Home for Christmas."

When my last grandparent passed away over 30 years ago, being "home" for Christmas took on a much different meaning. Loved ones and friends typically come home for Christmas, whether across town or across the globe. As countless people gather this Christmas to socialize or share a meal, their universe will be out of order. An emptiness will shout from the familiar spot that loved one once filled. . .they've gone home.

We are all homeless beings trying to find our way, trying to connect with our Maker. We are not earthly beings living on a spiritual plain, we are spiritual beings living on an earthly plain. In the Christmas season many become spiritual people a few days out of the year (one more if you count Easter). That is far from what we are called to be, far from what we need to be.

We need to live out that generosity, that care, and that love we show to others during Christmas, not just for a few days, but every single day. Just as hate breeds hate, so does love breed love. If you were told you have a short time to live (which someone hears everyday), you would probably make some drastic changes. Don't wait another day, do it now while you have the time, the means, the choice. . .life isn't a rehearsal for eternity, it's the opening act.

I just stumbled across Hannah's site when, out of curiosity, I clicked on a link regarding the lifegem diamonds. I was so in awe of your precious little Hannah that I have read through the entire journal this evening! I am so very sorry for your loss. It appears that your journal may have been a great outlet for you as you supported your daughter in her lengthy illness; I'm glad you had that available to help you write your thoughts, feelings and prayer requests. I wish I could have met Hannah. It sounds like she was an absolutely incredible little lady. You sound like an incredibly strong and loving woman and mother. Abby is so fortunate to have you. Your story of Hannah and your family has truly blessed and humbled me. May God bless you all as, and may He continue to bless Hannah who is truly one of his brightest and most lovely angels.

Hi Rowley's, you're not going to belive this, but I finally just watched the TV video of Hannah and the Lifegem spot! Wow, she was so alive and so beautiful you know I could never view it for some strange reason but today I could! I think about Hannah every day, I really do, she was such a huge part of my life, I still feel as though she is with me at times and maybe she is. She would have loved my new house and by now would be bugging you to move up here I'm sure! Watching the video took me back to a wonderful part of my life, when I was a big part of your's, I loved hanging out with you guys and helping out with the girls and horses, seeing Hannah with the little blue hat we made for her is so special to me too. I miss you all so much, love - melissa

A beautiful story of a very beautiful life....
God sometimes sends
into our lives holy Angels disquised as beautiful children. You truely experienced a blessing in the great love your daughter shared with all who touched her life and all the
the lives she touched. She was angelic in all that she said and did "Unless we all become as little children (TRUSTING AND LOVING FROM OUR HEART. FOR ALL OUR NEEDS FROM OUR SAVIOR AND LORD JESUS)we shall not enter the kindom of heaven" God bless U and your family for sharring such deep and personal insights with me.
Hannah's lived life as child like (not childish)with wisdom beyond her years. May God's Blessing be upon you and yours. May His Love and Light guide your way on the narrow road toward heaven. May He Keep you safe while His Holy angels hover over you and His Holy
light shines upon you. I ask this prayer In the name of the Father,the Son and the Holy Spirit........Amen

After reading Hanna's incredibly special story, I feel that any comment I have to say is incredibly inadequate; so I'll just say thank you for sharing her story. It's apparent that God has allowed something of Hanna to be with you as you write of her because even though what you wrote was relatively brief, I feel as though I got to meet her, and I'm better for it. .. and "Thank you, Hanna, for being such an incredible person and inspiration."

I hope the fact that you had such an incredible little girl somehow makes up for the short time you had with her. I like to think that God makes special rooms for each of us in heaven, and hers must be so pretty, just as she was.

Afew days before he was given a list of all the foods he could not have one of items was carmel apple. I asked him what he wanted off the list before the braces went on.His request was the carmel apple from your candy shop.We drove over and got his apple.Boy did he enjoy it!He has already asked when the braces come off can we go to the candy store on the way home for a carmel apple?

How amazing you are, Hannah's Mom! You are not typical in this day and age. Instead of staying inside your own pain or being angry with life or God, you chose to give of yourself freely - which isn't easy to do. You and your beautiful Hannah are two of a kind. You share whatever you have to give, without holding back, to build others and help them come closer to God - which builds His glory. Your open and loving hearts are similar (to me) to the gifts that Jesus has given us; giving your whole selves for love and kindness to others. Thank you for not shrinking from the bitter cup that was given to you. Thank you for thinking of others in your own Gethsemane.

I just read Hannah's story and she was truly remarkable. I am 19 and two years ago I was diagnosed with Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma(cancer of the salivary glands). I have lost a third of my teeth adn part of my left jaw bone due to all the radiation. I was never afraid I was going to die, but after reading Hannah's story I feel even better about it. I am so happy that you and your family are ok and optimistic. I'm sure she is looking down on all of us, smiling and making bead bracelets for her friends in heaven.

I'd like to get in touch with Hannah Rowley's family and ask if they would speak to me about their beautiful little girl, and her request to have some ashes turned into a lifegem.
Her bravery is so inspiring, and her story both amazing and heartwrenching. I would love to pay tribute to her in a UK magazine feature.
Please contact me by email if you can put me in touch with Hannah's family.

wow what do I say ?? Your story has touched my heart.. My mother was killed in a car accident on April21st , 2006 her ashes are still partly in my room ( small amount) and her degradable ern is in my sisters closet waiting on us to let it go in the ocean where she wanted to be... I knew you could make the diamonds but I thought that they cost much more , while looking for a verse to put in the paper for her year anniversery with God , I came across Life Gem , I will have my moms ashes made into a diamond for me soon, with the money from my fathers death,, he died of lung/liver/brain,spine/bone and lyhmp node cancer 8 months and 6 days after my mothers death. Its been a hard year, but I think the thought of being able to have the diamond made it going to make it better..

Thanks you for sharing your story it helps me know that my mother is with God, and my dad told us he would tell her how much we miss her when he got to Heaven.. Your daughter is beautiful and a blessing to have been on earth.
Thank You

Hi Rowley's:
I am so astonished at how many people all over Gods great earth have read about your Hannah. Wow, she is still something else isn't she! You know I don't get to this page as often as I should, but each time I do I just have to shake my head and say to myself one little girl made this huge debut almost 12 years ago, we were mezmerized by her then and we are still in awe of little Hannah Rowe~ley I can still hear her voice when she started reciting her name. It seems at a minimum I have a Hannah,Abby or Susi story to share every week you guys were such a big part of my life. Now Abby is getting big and answers the phone, remember when Hannah as small she would be so deep in thought that the door bell, or phone would scare her and she would scream. I still laugh at that. Love you guys.

What a true blessing! I couldn't hold back the tears for the family and for Hannah. Although she brought so much to everyone, I couldn't help feeling the fear and the loss from her and anyone who she came in touch with. It makes me feel comforted to know that she had such a supportive cast of loving people in her life.

Dear Mrs. Rowley,

I was moved by Hannah's story, but the last four words of her little life have really sank in: "I'm in. I'm in." I wanted to send you my love and prayers. Hannah has two babies and a dog to play with, so she's definitely got her hands full! God watches us all. Thank you for the blessing.

Thank you for all your prayers Susi. Due to radiation, that we did not want to do, the Lord used it and has shrunken my brain tumor. It is not gone yet but will continue to get smaller Dr. said i get to have a break no more treatments for a while only MRI's every 2 months like before while on chemo so they can make sure it does not take off growing again. Dr. said the radiation will continue to work even while i am off the treatments (even though i am mostly some-what bald). You know what the scripture says about a living sacrifice, that's what i want to be, willing to be used in any way for my Lord, i want more of Him and less of me, did He have to put me to that test? Just kidding. i remember Hannah and how strong she was through it all, for every one. Now i am also praying for Amy, may God bless her, help her to get well and totally healed so the Lord may use her as well. May the Lord use you Jerry and Abby to bless and encourage others who are ill, according to God's will. We don't always see things the way God does. May we see things the way Hannah did, she seemed to have her Father's eyes. Thank you and God bless.

i was just reading a story about lifegems and came over the new story about hannah and i have to say that it really touched my heart. she was a really brave girl right up to the end, and noboby can say that she did not belive in the lord above, as he watched over her and took her under his watchful eye and kept her safe and when the lord took her home to heaven god is still keeping her safe until the rest of her family can join her again in heaven above as she is with the lord, she feels no pain and only joy and that is the best blessing that we can all hope for,when the lord calls us home, she was one of the bravest little girl that i have read about for a long time, my heart goes out to her family, but another family will all be united again as a family one day, and that is a day i am sure that they will look forward too.

may god bless all who read this and keep them all safe and not allow evil to take away their souls and allow god to kepp them on the right path every day.

Hi Rowley Family,

Christmas Day ended around 90 minutes ago here in Michigan. I was up getting our littlest one back to sleep, and something made me think of checking your website before I headed back to bed. It's been several months or more since I'd been here - must have been that God prompted me to think of you tonight.

With all of the visitors you've had here, I doubt you'll remember me. I had posted a couple of times back when Hannah was still fighting her battle with cancer. We, too, have a daughter named Hannah - a sweetheart who loves horses, dogs, goats, and all other kinds of critters... loves to sing and play guitar... and enjoys beading and other crafty things. Something about having Hannahs with similar interests just really gave me empathy for you all.

I know you are coming off of your busy time at the candy store, and that with things slowing down after Christmas you might have a fresh wave of sadness about Hannah. I thought it might bring you some encouragement to know that there are still people you've never met out here who think of her often, and who continue to be inspired by her life. Actually, she wasn't the only one in your family who was inspirational. Each of you, in your own way, have inspired me. Your faith and love for Jesus in the midst of the hardest time of your lives has been a beautiful example for me, and I'm sure for many other people. Even when its obvious from a post that you are having a rough time, there is always an underlying joy that shows through. You've blessed me countless times with that joy, and I am certain I'm not alone in that.

Back when your Hannah died, I had wanted to send you something, but didn't get around to it. I would still like to do that. If you could send me an address to send something, I would love to follow through on that idea. :o)

As I head off to bed tonight, I am praying that God sends some extra blessings your way. I'm glad that someday I'll actually have the opportunity to meet your precious daughter face-to-face and tell her how much of an inspiration she was to me.

Christmas Blessings,
Krista Meyer

I can't believe I read you changed Hannah's room, I only say that because this very morning I was thinking about the holidays without Hannah and thought about her room and what if anything you had done to it? Low and behold Abby has her big sisters bed now, and Hannah's room is the Arts and Crafts center! How appropriate is that, you know she is loving it, but my question is how in the world did you get that big bed in Abbys's little room? I miss your Hannah very much - still to this day, and will always miss her she was such a love, just like Abby is. You are so blessed. God Bless you....

I know the sting of Hannah's passing hasn't gone away and maybe never will. But I just want to reaffirm what you and your family already know: Hannah was AMAZING and she amazes me everytime I hear her story or think of her. I don't know that this world was deserving of such a great little girl but God let us borrow her for awhile. I am sad that he took her back so soon, but she lives on. Everytime someone hears her name, sees her face, or hears her story she lives on...and still with every bit of faith and love in her. Thank you for sharing Hannah with me. I continue to pray for your family. God Bless you during this season and time of year, I know it's busy for you.

I have my 1 year check up coming, and I am praying of course that I am all clear, but I want to be sure that my view is that of Hannah's...God's will!

You, your family and Hannah are a great inspiration to me. God Bless you all.

I am praying for your family. I saw the story on the msn.com site. I lost my brother 3 years ago, and it is still painful for me. I wish we had known about this back then! What a beautiful memorial. My family and I are all saved, so I was thrilled to see the positive light they portrayed you in, on the news. That's great. God is really going to use Hannah's life to bring others to Him. I hope that you can find some comfort in that. I can't wait to meet her in heaven. God bless.

Hi Susi, everyone is here for a purpose, & it's temporal. Trust the Lord with all your heart. Hannah was here on earth for a purpose too, & it is for sure to testify Jesus in her life. Amen!
By just reading her journal, I can see so... much life even in her sad condition. I trust we all can see Jesus in Hannah's life n it is obvious Hannah had spent her time with Jesus when she was still alive. When one person spend time with Jesus, it will be undeniable.
In Acts 4:1-20 wrote how Jesus was shown in Peter & John's era.
"Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus." (Acts 4:13)

Dear Rowleys,
i have just finished reading about hannah & the amazing life she lead. u r so blessed to have had her for the time u did and it sounds like she was just the most amazing person ever! i know that no words will take the pain away and it is impossible to know how u feel, but just know in your hearts that she is always with you and watching over you to protect you. I have sat here for literally the past couple of hours just reading about her life and how smart, loving, and amazing she really was. little abby was so lucky to have had her say those last few words and yes, that is the best gift she could've gotten from her big sister. well, i know i don't know you, but i live in southern california (ventura county) and i will keep u in my prayers and i hope that everyone is doing well. please take care <3

Hello, although I did not know Hannah, I can completely relate to her story. My cousin was diagnosed with leukemia at the age of 5 and subsequently went throught the proper measures to destroy the cancerous cells. My cousin then had full blown bone marrow relapse and at the age of 16 passed away. I was 17 at the time and I still miss her to this day.

I found this site through the Lifegem.com site.

I just want to say I am sorry I never met your daughter, she sounds so precious and you were so lucky for your brief time with her. I know how life goes on, but is never the same. Thank God for love of friends and family. God Bless.

Sadly I do not get to see my children as often as I would like,but your daughter's story has touched me deeply and I am grateful.I would've like to have known your little girl, sounds like she had an endering spirit to her.As I am sure that you are very proud of your brave little girl.Your thoughts and prayers are with me,thankyou for sharing your story with me and probably countless others of whom your daughter has touched.

What would we all be doing if she were still here with us I often wonder, would she be playing her gutiar at church, showing her horse at local horse shows, singing and dancing with her sister, and of course working side by side with her Dad at the candy store for sure! Hannah will never be forgotten and always be close to our hearts because she touched everyone and everything she ever came into contact with. Hannah is loved.

Hello,

I met you in a PetsMart soon after your precious Hannah went home to be with the Lord. I had my Golden Retriever with me who at the time was a young boy on his way towards becoming a therapy dog. You told me Hannah loved animals and therapy dogs came to visit her. As you know I dedicated a page on my web-site to Hannah and the need for Therapy Dogs. I wanted you to know, that This week, my beautiful Golden Boy Sampson, tested with Therapy Dogs International for his certification. I put Hannah's photo in my pocket and took it with us ..as a reminder of my promise to you in PetsMart...that I would not lose my vision of having Sampson certified. I am very proud to announce, Sampson passed his testing and is now a certified Therapy Dog. Our goal now is to visit children in hospitals and bring a Golden kiss to brighten their day.

I pray you are doing well...

O it's so good to hear about you and your family. I check often to see if you have updated. Your family has been so busy!!! In October 05 I was shocked to be diagnosed with kidney cancer and had to have a kidney removed. It has only been 3 months since diagnosis and removal (kind of a whirlwind) but through that time (and even now) I think of Hannah and how I have read of her faith, strength & courage and I am so encouraged!!! Thank you so much for sharing hers and your story with us.....the example your family has set is amazing.
