All My Love, Christine
“My Brother”
You lit up our lives,
you were so full of joy,
you were a kind and caring
twelve year old boy.
Your smile was one
that could light up a room.
Your life had just started,
It was not yet in full bloom.
Sometimes life isn’t fair
I can’t tell you why.
No one was ready
to tell you goodbye.
You touched so many lives
and had many more to touch,
just know that all of us down here
will miss you so much.
It seems like twelve years
went by so fast,
I wish I had been there
for you more in the past.
But now I sit here,
I think and I cry,
I wish I could have been there;
wish I could have said goodbye.
For that brother I loved,
that we all loved for so long,
he will never come back,
he is truly gone.
You will live on in our hearts
forever more
and I can only wish
that you’d come walking through the door.

"His New Home"
he was there for me through thick and thin
he faught to stay alive but didnt win
we had fun times together
we laughed out loud
the smile on his face always made us proud
he left us precious memories
he love will be our guide
he will live on through our hearts
and hes always by our side
it broke our hearts to lose him
but he did not go alone
for part of us ALL
went with him
the day GOD called him
to his New Home!

there once was a boy
with the biggest heart
there was nothing you could do to set us
apart
he was always happy not a minute less
god shut his tired eyes and put him to rest
slowly but sadly we watched him lie
up into heaven where he safely fly's
as he watches over us everyday
making sure we do the right thing
every step of the way
everyday he is greatly missed
as he watches above and
sends them great angel kisses
when we saw him laying
so calm and free of pain
lost wun great friend
but a better angel gained
Pete had big dreams
always wanted to be a pro dirtbiker
He should of been able to make his dreams
come true
But a drunk driver took that all away from
him
Pete and his quad were the unbreakable two
Pete is missed dearly no doubt about it
we wish we could see him sooner
But until its our time to go
We will never forget Peter C Roberto Jr.

And if I go while you are still here,
Know that I live on
vibrating to a different instrument
behind a thin veil that you cannot see
through.
You will not see me, so you must have Faith.
I wait for the time we can soar together
again
both aware of each other.
Until then,
Live your life to the fullest,
and when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your Heart,
.....I will be there.

His smile was miraculous
It always brought us happiness
He would never let us down
Or even show a frown
He should’ve never been taken away
I wish he was still here on this day
I wanted to say goodbye
But I was out of time
I wanted to see u once again
To tell you, you were a good friend
Peter wrote this poem for an English
assignment this year shortly before he was
killed.
I AM
I am funny and daring
I wonder if one day I could be a pro dirt
biker
I hear that I am brave,
I see dogs jumping off roof tops.
I am funny and daring
I pretend I can fly,
I feel the wind blowing on me when I ride my
quad,
I touch the heart of my little brother when
he sees my riding.
I worry about dieing,
I cried when my great-grand mom died.
I am funny and daring
I understand that I'm brave,
I say Jesus will one day come to earth.
I dream I will become a dirt biker.
I try to do my best in school.
I hope I will pass 7th grade.
I am funny and daring.
My Beloved Son
I loved my son more
than words could say,
His smile could brighten the darkest day.
He was sweet and funny, yet brave and bold,
The day he was born, they broke the mold.
His heart was filled with kindness and love,
Now he soars above us like a beautiful dove.
My heart broke the night he was taken away,
It will not mend until we are reunited one
day.
I miss him so much; there is a terrible
void,
Life has no meaning without my beautiful
boy.
I know I must endure the anguish and pain,
Although I long to be with him and hold him
again.
Sadly I must wait to be with my son once
more,
For my family needs me here, this I am sure.
A singer once said in a song he composed,
Will you know my name, if I saw you in
heaven?
Those words upset me, for I hope there not
true,
Peter please remember me, I will always love
you.
Daddy.
End
What if my life were
to end?
Would i get to see my friend?
My friend thats in Heaven smilin down,
who would be upset to see us frown,
we won't see you for a long time wow,
I wanna see Pete,
I wanna see him now,
when its the end we will see you again,
so intill then ,
goodbye great friend.

You have a big smile
That blew frowns away
Peter pretty teeth
Soon has passed away.
His joyful personality
Was so awfully bright
People would never believe
What had happened that night.
Once that tragedy happened
His whole life flashed before his eyes
Soon to remember
His last dirt bike ride.
We miss you Little Pete
Your deep inside our heart
We love you very much
Even though where far apart.

Everyone around you surely misses you, Peter
The smile on you face was so contagious!!!
You knew how to show respect to others
You opened your heart to family and friends
As you passed, you brought happiness to all
You always were surrounded by friends
Even now in Heaven you are probably helping
God and the Angels!!
We know you are smiling down upon us
And we surely do miss you!!!

Aunt Suzy
12 years old crossed
the street
drunk driver swept him off his feet
Looked at him and ran away
For he was too afraid to stay
Took the life of an innocent kid
Who had the rest of his life to live
Now he's in heaven far up above
looking down on the ones he loves
He sees there pain
He sees the cry
Why oh why did he have to die
This is what happens to many alive
When people choose to drink and drive
WE MISS YOU R.I.P PETE
*KEEP PIMPIN UP THERE*

God saw you were
getting tired and a cure was not to be, so
he put his arms around you and whispered
come to me. With tearful eyes we watched you
and saw you pass away, although we loved you
dearly we could not make you stay. A golden
heart stopped beating hard working hands at
rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us he
only takes the BEST!!!!!! I love you Pete
you were one of my best friends we would
always talk on the phone and computer. I
miss your big smile and your funny jokes.
Your always going to be my best friends no
matter what! I'll see you soon... My Pizza
Man!

Petes a boy that died
at twelve who left all his memories along a
selve. Who's goal in life was to be a kid,
who layed in a coffin that closed with a
lid. He ran so fast and couldn't stop, Got
hit by a car and dragged a block. Crying and
voices appered outside, crowding around the
place that he died. He didn't deserve it
somebody yelled! If only you knew how bad
this all felt.During the viewing there was a
big line, I read Peter Roberto along a gold
sign.As we entered the room I began to
shake, I looked in the caskit, his body
looked fake! I looked at the doller he held
in his held. His black fitted hat with a
pink livestrong band. The smile on his face
was no longer there. He just layed there
stiff surround by air. His caskit was filled
with pictures that night, a few teddy bears
and a paper held tight. My paper i put
beside his heart, Leaving my memory as sharp
as a dart. I touched his hand which now felt
cold. The hand of Pete i'll forever hold.I
looked at the pictures from when he was two,
After that there were only a few.I turned
away crying and walked out the door. The
Pete that i knew wasn't there from before. I
got in the car with him in my head,
Remembering the words i wish i had said ..
" This isn't goodbye "
We didn't lo0se a friend .. We gained an
angel .. <33

Why did you have to go
You were so young, so sweet
I'll miss you forever
Until the next time we meet
What was across that road
What did you have to see
I wish someone had known
So we could have stopped this misery
We all just miss and love you so much
This tragedy just tore us all apart
But you'll still be in our memories
And forever in our hearts
I didn't want to beleive it
I still cant belevie that you're gone
I'll be thinking of you everyday
From dusk until dawn
This is my contribute to you
I'll try not to shed a tear
But we all cant bear to face the fact
That you're no longer here...

Why
By Susan Gerhardt
That night is burned in my brain – like a
recurring nightmare,
The sirens, the flashing lights, the
policemen,
The traffic, the crowds of people, the cloth
covered body,
Once so full of life, now still forever,
And I don’t understand
I remember your mother tearfully asking me,
“Mom, what do we do?”
And my lame answer, “ we just put one foot
in front of the other”
The looks on the faces of your brother &
sisters, and cousins, aunts
Uncles, and grandparents too,
And I don’t understand
Why you, a boy so brave and daring,
A boy so funny and self-confident,
A son, grandson & nephew so loving and
anxious to please,
A brother and cousin so caring and
protective
And I don’t understand
Your mom said in the paper, “it could have
been anyone’s child”
I’ve said in my heart, “why did it have to
be ours?”
I’d have gladly stepped in front of that SUV
if it meant you’d have more time here
Why was it you? A kid with your whole life
ahead of you
And I don’t understand.
I keep your pictures on my walls
I go to your web site often
I read how much others miss you
I cry often, and hope that
Someday I’ll understand.

Do not stand at my
grave and weep,
I am not there I do not sleep,
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush, of quiet
birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die
