Christy was my inspiration to create graphics and web design. I had never had a computer when Christy was with us. She had a computer but
the internet was a rare thing of mystery. We had many
happy hours playing Wheel of fortune and word games on her computer. She made banners and printed them off for her room. the printer was not color so she took crayons and colored the
posters and banners. Oh, how she would have loved
the internet. I had heard there was a world out there
in cyberspace and one could find all kinds of information,
so I purchased a computer, moved to Nashville TN. as there
was internet servers there and got online. I actually had
no idea what I was doing. I purchased a book for dummie's
but it was more confusing to me. I prayed for guidance and
somehow the inspiration came and I began to make my
first web-page. I searched the web for backgrounds for
my web-pages and each day I learned more about design
and finally how to create my own background sets and
graphics. today, I have sites that offer free background
sets, and free graphics. Lanes heart designs are a result
of my inspiration that came from my love for Christy.
My daughter, (Christy's mom) feels closer
to her as she daily
visits Christy's lovely garden home which is Christy's
resting place. A family cemetery in the country. Christy was the
second person to be lain to rest there. Ten years later it is
a beautiful cemetery that has many graves. My daughter and
other family members keep it up and many find the lovely
garden quite atmosphere a comfort to visit their loved ones.
I found my closeness with my beloved
grand-daughter here
on the web. I feel her nearness as I work on her web
pages,
or design graphics with her photo's, and most of all the support
from others who have lost a child or loved one and grieve as
I do. I feel she would be pleased and honored when I help
the
others who need graphics for their memorial sites. I feel each
family member that I meet brings me in contact with Christy's
heavenly friends. Just as I knew all her earthly friends.
If anyone viewing this site needs any
graphics or background sets
for a memorial site, please let me know and I will try to help
you. The sharing and helping is what dealing with pain and
grief is all about. If you do not belong to a support
group, I urge you to join one now. There is many on the web.
