A CHILD'S LIFE TAKEN: SOMER THOMPSON
I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR COMING TO OUR LOCAL SITE,
AND MOST OF ALL TO ASK THAT YOU KEEP THIS FAMILY
IN YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.
I AM SURE YOU HAVE READ OR HEARD ABOUT THIS ADORABLE CHILD
THAT HAS NOW TOUCHED THE LIFES OF SO MANY.
THE STORY OF SOMER IS EVERY MOTHER'S, GRANDMOTHER'S, FAMILY
AND FRIENDS WORSE NIGHTMARE,
AND THE NIGHTMARE LIVES ON IN OUR SMALL COMMUNITY .
A CHILD IS A PRECIOUS GIFT THAT CAN NEVER BE REPLACED,
AND TO BE TAKEN BY VIOLENCE,
LEAVES A WHOLE IN EVERYONES HEART.
THE HOURS SPENT LOOKING FOR SOMER GAVE US HOPE,
BUT WHEN THE NEWS CAME OUR HOPE TURNED TO ANGER, AND FEAR.
THIS COMMUNITY NOW KNOWS THAT WE HAVE SOMEONE AMONG US
THAT MAY HURT ANOTHER CHILD, IF NOT STOPPED.
SO AS THEY LAID SOMER TO REST..WE MADE THEM A PROMISE..
WE WILL FIND THIS PERSON AND STOP THEM FROM HURTING ANOTHER CHILD.

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR HELP.

OUR COMMUNITY HAS ALWAYS FELT SAFE..UNTIL NOW.
OUR CHILDREN WALKED TO AND FROM SCHOOL, RODE BIKES, AND PLAYED AT THE ATHLETIC PARK, ENJOYING LIFE, AS A CHILD SHOULD.
NOW WE FEAR LETTING THEM OUT OF OUR SIGHT
AND THEY NO LONGER GO OUT TO PLAY
... LIFE HAS CHANGED FOREVER.
WE SPOKE WITH THE JUSTICE COALITION IN JACKSONVILLE FLORIDA,
WHO HAS NOW PUT UP A $64,000 REWARD FOR INFORMATION
LEADING TO THE ARREST OF THE PERSON
OR PERSONS INVOLVED IN THIS CRIME.
WE HAVE SIGNED ON AS A GROUP "WOMEN HELPING WOMEN"
TO HELP RAISE FUNDS.
NOW WE ARE ASKING YOU TO HELP US ACHIEVE THAT GOAL.
LATER PROJECT
WE ALSO WILL BE DOING A TREE PLANTING AT A LATER DATE THROUGHOUT THE AREA .
TO PLANT PURPLE CRAPE MYRTLES IN HONOR OF SOMER'S LIFE.
SHE MAYBE GONE, BUT SHOULD ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED.
THANK YOU AGAIN... AND HUG YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN,
LIFE CAN CHANGE IN A MOMENT.
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO PASS THIS INFORMATION ALONG,
EVEN IF YOU CAN NOT HELP,
THAT COULD BE THE BEST HELP OF ALL.
THE WORDS OF A MOTHER WHO HAS LOST SO MUCH

"Tell your babies your love them. Tell your family you love them, not just your babies, everybody. Tell everybody you love them because it doesn't take but two seconds," Diena Thompson told Channel 4's Casey Black. "You can do the stranger danger -- I did do that with my kids, I told them -- but kids are going to be kids. Who knows the circumstances of how he got her to wherever he got her. It puts into light into short and you never know when it's going to be the last time."
