I lost my daughter Spring Ann Draney, October 9th, 2005 on a Sunday, she was only 26. As me and my wife drove home from a drive in the mountains, while she had spent the previous night at her friends, as we drove into our drive way a police car was waiting with a detective and a policeman from a near by town, they approached us and asked if they could come in and speak to us. I asked the gentlemen what the problem was, but he only said it would be better if we spoke inside, after setting in our living room he asked to see a picture of our daughter, and the he informed us that our dear Spring (daughter) had been found dead this morning.

Those moments created in me a dark painful place, that no mother or father should ever feel or go into, I know many parents lose their children, no matter what age to something, in our world each and every day, but to have the cause of that death prescribed to them, by medical professionals who should know far more than the patient or his or her parents, or friends, as to if, the benefits of taking it will far out weighs the risks and to what extent it should monitored and then do so diligently. Like all of those here who have lost their dear loved ones, she is never far from our waking and sleeping minds.

Spring loved the moon at night, a thunder storm with it's lighting, and every time I go to a movie I think of her we always went to movies, I wish I could color again with her she never out grew the love for coloring in a coloring books. Spring loved many things, but Spring was a true child of nature, she said she could talk to every living thing and loved taking pictures of just about anything, bless her heart.

I have confidence that I will see my sweet Spring again, under the wondrous reign of Christ, he said he would" remember and resurrect everyone who has ever died, I trust he will.

We love you Spring, see you soon,

All your family who hold you dear.
