This website is to honor and remember my son Hunter Addison Vongphrachanh. Hunter was born January 4, 2000. First I will tell you a little about him. Hunter's favorite color was blue. His favorite drink was Dr. Thunder, just like his mother. He loved playing video games. He has every mario game for his gamecube. We were both big Mario fans. We spent many all-nighters just playing video games together. He loved playing with his sisters, Casey and Alexis. Hunter and Alexis were so close that I called them twins. Just one was 6 and the other 9. Hunter would sweet talk Casey and flash those beautiful brown eyes and she would be putty in his hands. I guess you could say we all were. Hunter was and still is my pride and joy. Everything he did made us laugh. For only being 6yrs old he taught me so much. He taught me the true meaning of love. Hunter grew his angel wings on January 25th, 2006. On June 1st,2006 Hunter became a big guardian angel brother to his baby sister Destiny. Though with us for a short time he left us with a lifetime of good memories. We will always be greatful for him being in our lives. To his family it was like hitting a lotto. I am a very lucky person for having him as a son. Thank you for visiting Hunter's website. Please light a candle for him before you go. To all the angel families that visit Hunter.I wont have access to the internet for awhile.Thank you for lighting a candle for Hunter it means alot to me.And as soon as I get back on I will light candles for your loved ones. Thank you so much Jana for this beautiful picture.
My favorite wrestler.Im his number one fan.
Hunter's 8th Birthday
Today is Hunter's birthday, he's turning eight He isn't with us to celebrate He already walked through heavens gate to the point of no return We were left here to mourn How could God need him so bad To take him from his mom and dad We loved him more than anyone could Everything about Hunter was good Hunter also has three beautiful sister who miss him Without him their lives seem so grim All we have are memories of the past Which we will have to make last I can sit here and be wishing It's a few years ago and we were fishing Or the time when we were playing croquet It last so long he got tired to play Those were the days when everything was fine I had Hunter and thought it was til the end of my time I will always love you Hunter Love Mommy
A Mother's Love
You're the best kid that I've had You made me happy even when I was sad There could never be another To Casey and Alexis you were the best brother No one could ever compare to you Having you was a dream come true Even though it couldn't last I still have great memories of the past You were daddies wrestling buddy Even if I thought you were all nutty You brought our family so much joy You will always be mommies little boy You loved to play all video games From Mario to Sonic to all the big names You loved to drink Dr. Thunder Who taught you that,gee I wonder For a while we have to be apart Deep inside it breaks my heart I have to wait for that special day When I can be with you and stay that way Until then I will always love you.
Thank you Jana
Everything I see or do reminds me of you Any little thing like looking at a book reminds me of how you couldn't wait for daddy to cook Or even just seeing kids play in the sand reminds me of you and your happy hands If I play a video game all I can do is think you'd want to do the same I think about you 24 hours a day Just wishing we had one more time to play I think about you every minute how we used to play Mario and you'd always win it. I think about you all the time and am so thankful that you were mine I thnk about how you made us have fun You were and always will by my perfect son I will always love you. Love Mommy
Hunter loved Scooby Doo. He use to always watch the t.v. shows and he always played scooby doo with me and Alexis. Hunter got some little scooby doo action figures for his Birthday. He use to play with them all the time. Alexis and I would play these toys with him too. He loved playing with them and when we were done playing with them he would want to watch the movie. He also had a scooby doo backpack. He would carry it around and keep his scooby doo toys in there. Hunter, Alexis and I would stay up later watching his movies and then we would play as them ourselves. Everytime there was a new movie coming out we would wait for it to come on t.v. And then we would all lay on the bed or the floor and watch it. From Hunter's big sister, Casey
Hunter loved to play video games. He had every Mario game. When I would Play and couldn't pass a level he would tell me I want a turn. At the time he was 5 I thought he was too small, but to my suprise he was very good. He made me very proud of him. One day my friend brought her 15yr old son to my house. I told her my son against yours. Hunter won, he was so excited. I was too. He gave me bragging rights at work. Her son came over again for a rematch but Hunter was undefeated. He is the video champion!
Hunter's nickname was nugget. He got his nickname for two reasons. The first reason he loved to eat chicken nuggets. Every time we went to eat that is what he wanted. I use to tell Hunter, your going to turn into a nugget. He always thought that was so funny. He would smile and his pretty tootsie roll eyes would just sparke. The second reason, he would be cold. He would come in my room and say mommy I'm coldy like a chicken. I would tell him to get in my electric blanket with me. Then he would say, now I'm warmy like a chicken nugget.
Hunter loved playing games. When we were going some where Hunter loved to play the slug bug game. I would be driving and I would hear him say, blue slug bug no trade backs. He got the whole family playing. He didn't want to lose. One time Alexis called a slug bug and Hunter got mad. He said he saw it first. So we give it to him. And he was so happy he thought he beat us. One time Hunter said, silver slug bug no trade backs. Alexis looked at it and it wasn't a slug bug. It was a silver truck. We thought that was funny and he got mad.
Hunter was and always will be my pride and joy. Ever since Hunter was a baby I had his picture made on a necklace. He loved to look at it. He would always touch my necklace and say thats me. I would tease him and say no it's me. He would get mad. Then I said your right it's you. And he would be happy again. You could see his dimples and his tootsie roll eyes would just sparkle. I would like to thank Jana for making this beautiful pendant of my angel Hunter.
Hunter always loved black fish. We went to his school carnival and he won a black fish. Hunter was so excited he couldn't wait to go home and put him in the fishtank. Hunter floated the bag for 15 minutes then Alexis asked if she could let his fish out. So I said ok. Hunter stood in front watching. Alexis scooped out the fish and in the tank he went. As soon as the fish went in out came another goldfish. Hunter started knocking on the fish tank. He said, let him go. I told Hunter even if he lets him out he will still die. So I promised to get him another one to replace him. Since then I've always tried to keep a black fish in my tank just for Hunter
Why am I the one to live When I feel like I have nothing to give You're the one that was small So many things to do in life and enjoy them all I'm the one who is old As the years pass my heart grows cold I would love to take your place To bless the people here with your face They just don't know what they are missing All I can do is keep wishing You should be here not me Since you left me I'm so lonely Why did god have to take you I guess I always knew you were to good to be true I can't complain Even though my life will never be the same You gave me so much love Now you're my angel watching from above I will always love you. Love Mommy
Hunter loved shadow mario.Everytime I played super mario sunshine, he always had to play the level chasing shadow mario.
Hunter was a pirate at a birthday party.He had so much fun.He will always be our treasure.
First Day in Heaven
I can't wait until I go thru heavens gate I know what I will see Hunter standing there waiting on me He will run up to me and tell me now I will never be lonely I will tell him I love him and we will hug each other then he will say I love you too and missed you mother Later he will show me around Probably take me to the play ground He will want me to meet his new pals more than likely alot of gals Hunter always had alot of friends The list of names never ends Of course it wouldn't be right If we didn't play mario all night And that is how I think my first day will be I will be with Hunter forever and so happy
Having you for a son
Having a son like you would be any mother's dream come true You were everything I dreamed of A true angel sent from above I'm so glad that I was the one that got to have you for my son All the funny things you did just watching you be a cute kid Everything you did was funny even sticking your hand out for money I think about you everyday I just close my eyes and watch you play You will always be momma's boy The only one who brought me so much joy On your Birthday you will be seven You're so special, God wanted you in Heaven I cannot feel sorry for myself because I have experienced your love and knew the true you I can only feel sorry for those who never got to know you. They missed out on a chance of a lifetime I will always love you Hunter, Love always, Mommy
Alexis,Hunter,and Casey. Hunter liked being the only boy he thought he was hot stuff.
The Mask Why do I have to wear the mask You shouldn't have to ask how is my day when I can't watch my son play its hard to put on a fake smile even if just for a little while or you shouldn't say he's in a better place would you like to never see your child's face why is my son already in heaven its not fair he wasn't even seven truth be known this is no joke my heart will forever be broke And please don't ask how was my holidays when all I wanted was to runaway So if you see me please don't ask it gets so hard to wear the mask so save us both alot of pain don't make me wear the mask again I can never be like you I have to live my life with my heart broke in two.
My Mom is a Survivor
My mom is a survivor of so I've heard it said But I can hear her crying at night When all others are in bed.
I watch her lay awake at night and go to hold her hand. She doesn't know I'm with her to help her understand.
But like the sands on the beach that never wash away... I watch over my surviving mom, who thinks of me each day.
She wears a smile for others... a smile of disguise! But through heaven's doors I see tears flowing from her eyes.
My mom tries to cope with death to keep my memory alive. But anyone who knows her knows it is her way to survive.
As I watch over my surviving mom through Heaven's open door... I try to tell her that angels protect me forevermore.
I know that doesn't help her... or ease the burden she bears. So if you get a chance, go visit her... and show her that you care.
For no matter what she says... no matter what she feels. My mom has a broken heart that time won't ever heal.
Love Hunter
I wish you were here or I was there this pain is just too much to bare. I look around at everyone living their life and having fun. How can they go on like nothing is new. Don't they know we're missing you. All I ever wanted to see is that you touched other lives like you did me. So everyday I dedicate my life to your site to make sure at least one candle will be light. I know if you're watching over me from above you will know my unconditional love. It cannot stop because you're not here now you live in my heart which is always near. I will always love you Hunter, Love Mommy
Dreams Everyone knows I always wanted a son then on January 4th you were the one the one I always dreamed of the one I gave all my love the one I thought was better than money the one who was so funny I knew from the start that it was you who would steal my heart how could someone so small make me love life and want to see it all? you came into my life for 6 wonderful years you left me with a broken heart and many tears but I will never regret having you because you were and always will be my dream come true I will always love you Hunter, Love mommy
About My Mom If you meet my mom There's a few things you should know If she meets some one new she usually does with resistance Most of the time she keeps a safe distance Sometimes she just wants to be alone Please don't get your feelings hurt if she won't answer the phone It's not that she is mean or even that she's mad You just need to understand that she's really really sad So please don't take it to heart Her world just fell apart You will never be able to stop her tears cause she's dreamed of me all these years So please help me to help my mom if you come here could you light a candle it really makes her day to know that someone thought of me Thank you, Hunter
Hey this is Casey, Hunter's older sister. I just wanted to tell you a little bit about Hunter. First of all having Hunter as a little brother was the best thing anyone could ask for. He was so funny and he always had a smile on. He was so good at video games and he always won at them too. He brought so much happiness to this family and he always will.
Hunter could make anybody happy. Just one look into his beautiful eyes and poof, all your worries would go away. I miss the fact that I'll never get to see the sparkle in his eyes again. It hurts me so much to know that I wont be able to see his smile too. He had the perfect smile. It was the smile you could look at and all your problems would disapear. The smile that lets you know everything is gonna be okay. The smile that would wash away your fears and give you the feeling of safety and security.
He was special in many ways. He affected so many peoples lives too. Even though we were together for a short period of time, I know I will have a lifetime of memories. No one can ever replace him. He is one of a kind. He was very unique in his own way. I know someday I'll be able to see his face again, but until then He'll always hold a special place in my heart. I will forever love him with every ounce of love in me and nothing can change that. Thank You for reading this. Please light a candle for Hunter.
I just don't know why you had to go Doesn't god know I still needed you so You're the one who kept my life together my shining sun in rainy weather when you went to heaven you took a part well I guess you took my whole heart Now all I can do is wait to be with you that's all I have to look forward to that will be my second dream come true I keep wishing this is a bad dream but all I do is wake with a scream You still aren't here with me I'm dying inside and so lonely I lay awake at night looking at the wall remembering the times when I had it all those were the days when we were together and in my mind I thought it was forever I will always love you Hunter, Love Mommy
A Thousand Tears A Thousand Tears I've cried for you. With each burning tear I don't know what to do. With the holidays getting harder and longer. Each passing holiday helps me get stronger. Your death was painful, no doubt about that. I try to be happy, but I know I just can't. Now that you're gone, I'm not sure I can go on. I need you here with me, why did you have to leave? It hurts deep inside, and all I can do is cry. I've cried a thousand tears for you. But know this now and forever, I will always love you. Love Casey
My son is in a wonderful place Where all of heaven gets to see his beautiful face he never has to want anything whatever he wishes for god will bring He never has to see anyone sick or feeling down now all of heaven is his huge playground He has a new best friend he calls Fay he said all they do is play they play with hot wheels and in between eat chicken nugget meals they know their mothers miss them we wish we were there to kiss them but as they wait for that special day him and Fay just play whether their playing video games of just laughing and making up silly names They are always together playing happily in heaven they always have perfect weather even though Hunters high above I know in my heart he's surrounded with love Love Mommy
Heaven must be really nice actually I've heard its paradise in my heart I know Hunter is having fun He's running in the clouds with everyone I can also picture him being silly he's just so excited now he's with Grandma Lillie She likes to hold him and sing him a song they have fun all day long He said he teaches her how to play video games and she teaches him how to spell lots of names He said Grandma Lillie made the best jelly so I know he has a nice full belly I'm sure by now she's spoiled him rotten That's ok he will never be forgotten I'm just happy they are together and will stay that way forever Until we get to join the fun We have to wait until our life here is done We will always love you Hunter and Grandma Lillie
The Ultimate Gift
Hunter was so special and brave I will tell you all the love he gave He gave the ultimate gift of life So an ungrateful man can live to be with his wife On a day my world was torn apart I thought of Hunter and his caring heart at that time I knew the right choice was to give so hopefully giving someone another chance to live It went according to plan Except Hunters kidney went to an ungrateful man I asked to please keep in touch but I guess I asked for too much All I got was one short letter saying how his life was so much better well thats really nice to hear Hopefully he thinks of Hunter each year as my family just wanted to know a part of Hunter lives on only to find out the recipient and his family just moved on not appreciating how special Hunter truly was hes still my angel watching from above
Hunter our family wont be complete until we are all together again.We love you and miss you so much.
I always knew Hunter was an angel from day one.
