A heart of gold stopped beating 01-22-2008
Two beautiful eyes at rest.
God broke my heart to prove,
He only takes the best.
God knows you had to leave me,
but you did not go alone,
for part of me went with you.
the day he took you home.
The house that you now respond is overstaffed with heroes who answered one last bell,did the job and did it well
John 15:13Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Christa Dawn Burchett born at 10:05am weighted only 5lb 13oz a very tiny beautiful gift from God!
On the morning of January 22, 2008, Christa responded to a call for help from a young mother-to-be who had lost control of her car on an icy road. She rushed to the scene in an ambulance and was helping the young woman to get into the ambulance. At the same moment a tractor-trailer loaded with coal began sliding on the highway and hit Christa and the mother-to-be. The mother was killed on impact. Christa died at Paul B. Hall Regional Medical Center in Paintsville at 10:04 a.m.
Christa’s name and legacy will live on through the lives and people she has touched. Christa left too early and not a day goes by that her family and friends don’t think of her and miss her dearly. Christa left behind a beautiful daughter Olivia Burchett (14), who had to grow up way to soon. Being left without a mother at such as young age, has changed her life forever.
From the very first moment you were laid in my arms
I wanted to protect you from all harms
You were so small and precious, the perfect gift from above
And in an instant I fell in love
Your first day of school broke my heart
Because I knew that we would be apart
I watched you grow from a girl to a woman
And it all seemed like the perfect plan
But time seemed to slip by so fast
Oh how I wish I could relive the past
It would be awesome to be able to see
That little girl that was so carefree
But I know I can not go back in time
To those days that were so sublime
I wanted and would have given you the moon
But you were taken from me way too soon
Your shining smile I would love to see
If only I could have you here with me
I am so honored to be your mother
You were a daughter like no other
Your daughter, brother, dad and I agree
Heaven is where you have to be
We will miss you and think of you with love
And know that you are with your mamaw and papaw above
We know we have special angels up there
Looking down on us with love and care
I love you Christa!!!!
