Keara Lynne Hart - Online Memorial Website

Keara, although we have not met face to face..I feel myself blaming myself about what happened to you..I should have been able to stop him...I knew what type of person he was..He wanted me to come and visit the weekend before this all happened..I told him Ok..only because I knew he was lying..He called me on the Tuesday before..I didn't answer my phone because he was so full of it..What ways on my mind is that if I would have answered the phone maybe you still would have been here. If I would have just came to visit maybe I would have had the opportunity to meet you and let you know what type of monster he really is..I have so many thoughts in my head of what I could have done..I feel like I failed myself as a woman..Everything that he done to you he has done to me except I lived..I a

Keara..thinkin of u always..stay close to Mom & family as the holidays approach..so hard w/out our girls..love to Mom always..

I did so enjoy speaking with you today over the phone, Mother, and my heart has felt heavy but joyous for you and you're family since then.  Even though Keara died such a tradjec death I feel she had completed the purpose for which God Almighty placed her here to do!  She has and will teach so many people much as; love tolerance, patience, forgiveness, compassion, live life to the fullest every day, grace and above all peace that she has in the arms of Jesus her Lord and Savior.  He will continue to use Keara to further his ministry to any one who talks to her beautiful family, looks at this site or as an angel administers to those who may suffer in this same way as the victim or their families. God bless you all and I pray God will give you the grace to live one day at a time! 

In reading these heartfelt words of a beautiful life that ended too soon, I simply had to let you know that even strangers care.  There is nothing more abrasive to the heart and soul than to experience the death of a child. Our hearts may begin to heal and life will go on, even if we're not sure exactly how we will make it through the day. On good days, life begins to resemble a sense of normalcy, yet all of that can shatter without forwarning.

I don't know the facts of your daughter's murder; I read a portion of the memorial but felt the need to send a condolence first.  I just pray that Keara didn't suffer and that she wasn't afraid. No one deserves to be treated that way. I pray for her Mom as she learns to live again...minus one of her children.  I pray for Keara's precious children who will never have an opportunity to have their Momma there when they really need her or want her or simply have a desire to laugh together.  It just is not justified and the thought that this type of thing happens just makes me physically ill.

Our son Andrew, died of blunt force trauma to his head four days after a tragic car accident. He died on July 16th, 2005 at the age of 18.  I made a vow to myself that this year, I would find new outlets and try to live life to it's fullest...in the name of our son. He was such a people person, loved everyone and everyone loved him. I know in my heart that he would never want the grief to be prolonged. It's simply easier said than done.

Please visit Andrew's site and light a candle for him.

I have tried so many times before now to sit down and write something...something that speaks of who you were...who you continue to be in our lives. Words fail. Tears fall. My heart swells and then I look to the left and see your smiling face beside my feeble attempt at communicating my feelings today. Your smile says it all. About sorrow, loss, yearning, joy, hope, peace. I wish I could smell your sweet cheeks close to my face again. To stroke your hair...your beautiful hair. I want to hear you laugh again. The sun is shining on me today. I am going out into the sunshine to sit beside a waterfall in the Ozarks. I will be still and listen. Laugh loud, Keara! Laugh loud! Love to you wherever you are!

Peace be with us all.

I never knew Keara. But it clear to me that she was a cornerstone in the foundation of her family. And that her life was one that meant more than most. When a person's passing causes such pain, anger, and disgust but eventually leads to courage for those left behind... well that's an indicator of what she means to people. God bless.

Keara,

You are missed so much, but your memory will live forever. I'm so sorry this happened to you, I have talked to your Mom, she is so sweet, kind and loving. I'm praying for you and her, for your children and all your relatives. Some day you will all be together, meanwhile time has to pass as usual. Your Mom told me the one that killed you is in prison, it doesn't seem fair he gets to live. Okay baby girl, be safe, watch for a guy named John Wade, be his friend, he'll make you laugh and bring you joy. Tell him aunt Pat loves him and misses him. We will see you soon.

I am so sorry for your family's loss. keara, even though i have never known you, I feel as if I have. I am currently receiving help from your mother and she is a wonderful person, who is helping me through a hard time in my life. Your mother is a strong woman who loves you very much, because i see the love when she talks about you.  I know as a family all of you will be strong and will be able to lean on each other in your time of need. I am again sorry for the pain that all of you are going through. Be strong and be there for each other.

Keara, we all miss you so much and especially today on your birthday.  You are supposed to be here celebrating your 32nd birthday.  Your little nephew Cooper is one week old today.  We named him Cooper Kearan after you.  I will always make sure he knows all about his Aunt Keara and only wish you were still here to get to know each other in person.  I  believe you are with us in spirit though and are able to feel all the love we have for you.  I still feel the love you had and I'm sure still have for me and that is what allows me to have a small amount of peace through this.  I hope where ever you are now is better and more peaceful than the life you left behind here and that we will be together again some day.  I love you, Lauren
