SHE WAS BORN BEAUTIFUL, SPECIAL AND WONDERFUL.........KACEE YOU ARE AMAZING...

She was named for her mum and dad...Ken and Colleen (Ka for Ken, Cee for Colleen)

This online memorial was created in loving memory of Kacee Smith by her mum Colleen, whose life story is told throughout this memorial website. Please sign Kacee's guest book and let us know you came to visit. We will remember Kacee forever. She was born Beautiful, Special and Wonderful.

The music played on each page is the music that was played at her funeral and has great meaning to her family - listen to the words, they reflect so many feelings and emotions.

Kacee's story will be added when I can bring myself to write it, but until then, the following was sent to me by a friend (Michele) who Kacee and I lived with after her father passed away (she was 5 weeks old when I lost Ken). Michele's husband had a visit from Kacee not long after she passed and this is what she told him to tell me............

Cousin Joshua read a card Kacee gave me whilst she was in Northside West Private Clinic in July 2004 - she wrote.........

Dear Mum Thank you for:

* Arranging my 'holiday' at Northside West

* Loving unconditionally

* Sorting out my *!?#*

* Bringing me cigarettes, clothes and money and anything I ask for

* Brightening up my room with flowers

* Visiting every day

* Throwing Shay's (21st) party

* And still managing work and everything

Love Kacee xxx

She wrote also......

How can someone shine so bright,

To always be my guiding light?

How can someone hold me so tight,

When all I seem to give is spite?

Maybe one day when things go right,

I promise to try with all my might,

To make up 4 all those sleepness nights,

If only you knew,

How hard it is,

For me,

To do this,

To you,

I LOVE YOU

And from me to Kacee..........

I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)

I am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear;and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling)

I fear not fate (for you are my fate, my sweet)

I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you

Here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)

And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart) by E. E. Cummings

I want to take this time to thank my daughter Shay for her unconditional love - she is my Rock. I also want to thank my mum, sisters and brothers for their understanding and for enduring my unending grief - it will remain that way until I can hold Kacee in my arms once again. I also want to thank Kacee's cousins and cousins in law for the love they show me, Shay and Kacee and their unbelievable understanding of who Kacee was. She is being taken care of in heaven by her Dad Ken, Grandpa Smith (Grumpy), Grandma Scott and I just know Barry is there watching over her too. Take care of her until I get there. I love you all.
