My Tribute: Mason had a beautiful but troubled soul. He was kind, compassionate, loving and yet he battled a darkness within himself that he simply couldn’t harness and contain. He masked his pain and troubled mind. He had a disease. He had an addiction. But neither of those things defined him. He was my son. I loved him then. I’ll love him always. And miss him with every breath I take.

My Tribute: My mother lost her battle of over 20 years just this past week. There are no words to describe the things I have felt since hearing of her passing. Regardless of the state of her addiction, she was always a loving, kind human. She was a proud mother and grandmother. She had a beautiful smile, such a great laugh and a wonderful personality. We miss her so terribly.

My Tribute: My brother Dalen Eli Nyberg was the best person. He loved everyone that he met and had a heart of gold. He was kind, caring, sensitive, smart, honest, strong, determined, hard-working, handsome, lovable, funny, and the list can go on! Forever I will miss my brother and only pray that he is above us, protecting us, but now as an angel instead of here on Earth. He enjoyed being outdoors, visiting with family, making friends, learning new things, reading, writing, and listening to music. Dalen could do anything you asked him to, very capable, with tons of experience in life in many areas. He deserved more than what life had given him, he deserved love, friends, a safe haven, counseling, education, and to have a family of his own. My brother deserved to live a healthy life as a husband, brother, uncle, dad, son, grandson, friend, cousin, and more! We miss him, his smile, laugh, quality time, and most of all his radiating positive energy. We miss you and love you Dalen, wish you were here!

My Tribute: My son was the most kind-hearted little boy who grew into a handsome man with a beautiful soul and an amazingly big heart. He was the child who made me feel and experience unconditional love for the very first time. He cared more about others than he did himself and could make you laugh when you were feeling your lowest. My son’s name is Jesus G. Gutierrez – he will forever be 29 years old; and will always be Momma’s Baby Boy and I will forever miss his big bear hugs, soft kiss on the forehead and the most loving words a struggling single mom could hear…”Don’t worry Ma, everything is going to be alright. Love you!”
