Left For Colby In Casket Colby was one of a kind, Maybe that is why he touched so many. Always going somewhere, Always helping someone, Always something to say, Colby was energy. Colby never met a stranger. He was fiercely loyal, He never missed a chance to help someone. And the things he said, no one else could. Ackerman will never again see another Colby. But blessings from God often seem brief. Brief By miraculous. How else could one child touch so many lives? And now, our loss is Heaven's Gain. I'm sure Colby is getting things done up there. Called In My Mind By: Jenn Ferrell Some where in my dreams tonight I'll see you standing there You look at me with a smile "Life isn't always fair" You say you were chosen for his garden His preciously hand picked bouquet "God really needed me, that's why i couldn't stay" It's said to be that angels Are sent from above I've always had my angel My friend-whose heart was filled with LOVE Where-ever the ocean meets the sky There will be memories of you and I When i look up at that sky so blue All I will see is visions of you. "While there's a heart in me, you'll be apart of Me" By Cherish We all loved you so much and hated to see you go. But we all know you are in a better place and that you are watching over us. You were loved by so many and will continue to be loved and cherished until it is our time to go and be with you and the Heavenly Lord above. So until that time when we will get to see your beautiful smiling face again just know that we all love you and miss you so much. But watch over us and know that we are all thinking about you and you will always be kept in our hearts. We all love you so much. In Loving Memory of Colby Ivey In Loving memory of Colby Ivey who will be missed dearly.. Yesterdays, Yesterdays have come and gone, but this time so have you. You made a big impression on the ones you loved and knew. Your life was full of good times, while some of them were bad. If someone had a problem, you were the best friend they could have had. Why did the Death Angel take you away? Couldn't he have let you stay? We didn't even say goodbye. I keep telling myself I won't cry. What good will crying do anyway? People come and go everyday. I hope you are happy in every way. Maybe we will meet again someday. By Michelle Andrews To Colby Love Brady Colby was one of a kind he didn't care if you were black, white or green, he would still like you. He would make you laugh when you were sad. We had our bad times and our good times. But you know what he will always be My Brother. We Will always remember him and he will always remember us. He will always be a part of this family. I love you Colby Love Brady Your Brother By Matt Hodges Colby was a good friend he was real cool. He loved this world, he loved this school. Everyone knew him as lil'pimp, they knew him like that cuz he walked with a limp. He loved everybody especially the girls, to bad that he had to leave this world. The Lord took him from us in pain and sorrow. I wish we could see lil' Colby tomorrow. Colby was rare, he was like no other, He loved J.T. , he loved his big brother. Now he's in Heaven floating on Cotton. Colby Lee Ivey, He won't be forgotten. R.I.P. Colby. Here is a poem written for Colby by Candice Dempsey and read at the "Prayer at the Pole" when he was to be a SR at Ackerman HS.   I thought I saw you in a crowd, but you were no where to be found. I heard you call my name, but it was only the rain. I looked up to see your smile but it was only the clouds rolling by...... How do I face tommorow without you? How do I go on living without you to guide me, make me laugh? I go to sleep at night only to dream of you and to wake up calling your name. You left me but I wasn't ready to let you go.... I try to think of the good times and we had many These memories are what gets me by. Until I see you again, and I will........... I will hold on to our memories You and I together And our memories will go on forever.   Written by Candice Dempsey 2005 do not reprint without permission from Ga
