I wish we didn't have to think about Pat at all. I wish Heather was still here, laughing, dancing, singing......but since Pat took that beautiful, fun-filled life away I think of him frequently. He makes me physicaly sick when I think of Ed, Cydney, Heidi, Chris, Heather's friends, and what we all are going through to try and live day by day. He doesn't deserve compassion because he has no respect for life. Pat does deserve to die but unfortunately that won't happen in the sentencing evidently. His pitiful lying about what happened that night won't save his soul or the rest of his miserable existence. He'll get his hopefully sooner than later.
NO PITY FOR A PUNK..........

I'm pleased to see that Patrick is being tried as an adult. The criminal justice system should give teenagers who commit heinous crimes the same punishments it bestows upon older offenders. Only then can justice truly be served and society protected from dangerous individuals. At a time when teenagers are more predisposed to violence than in the past, there is a pressing need to counteract this trend. Trying juveniles as adults sends a clear message that crimes such as murder, rape, and assault will not be tolerated and that perpetrators must accept the consequences of their actions. The significantly harsher penalties for being tried as an adult serve as a deterrent to potential juvenile offenders. Holding teenagers responsible for themselves is not unique to our justice system. The argument that teenagers cannot comprehend the gravity of their crimes is an insult to the intelligence of young people. Teens have the maturity and judgment to make reasoned decisions. That's why many young people get driver's licenses before they turn 18. The same thinking skills that allow them to operate vehicles can also formulate criminal intent and differentiate right from wrong. With more violent crime by teenagers well aware of their actions, it's clear that we should recognize juvenile offenders of violent crimes for what they are: dangerous criminals who happen to be teenagers.

This poem reminded me of Heather. Pennies from Heaven - I found a penny today Just laying on the ground, But it's not just a penny This little coin I've found. Found pennies come from heaven, That's what I've been told, By Angels watching over us From their clouds of gold. When an Angel thinks of you They toss a penny down, Sometimes just to cheer you up To make a smile from your frown. So don't pass by that penny When you're feeling blue, It may be a penny from heaven That an Angel's tossed to you. "In God We Trust" is not a phrase Just printed on a penny, It's something to remember When your troubles seem like many. So when you're down and it seems Your life has a blue tint, That penny on a sidewalk May be truly "heaven-cent."

What a truly remarkable and strong family you are. I cannot imagine living without my daughter and not knowing what actually happened to her. Although you probably will never know the truth, I hope you know that she loved you and she was very greatful to be a part of your family. Just remember the smiles and laughter you brought to her face. I pray for you at this very difficult time.

I never knew her but the thought of seeing someone so young and so full of life leave this world with her life undone and chapters unwritten is so very, very sad. What would she have been? Who would she have married? How many kids would she have had? No one will ever know. May, you..her family...continue Heathers legacy, and may you heal the holes in your heart. God Bless

Dear Ed and Cydney, I visited with Shirley today and she shared the latest news and told me about Heather's memorial service. I was reading back through your guestbook and, when I saw our daughter Martha's message, I thought I had to add one even though we will talk to you. We cannot imagine the depth of your sadness and all the feelings you must live with everyday. We treasured every moment spent with our three over the holidays and thought of you often. We saw your last appearance on GMA and wanted to reach right through the set to hug you. We are so very sorry. Words really can't say enough. We value your friendship over the many years we have known you and send you our daily thoughts and prayers until we see you again. Carol and Charles

I'm sure that everyone know's Heather's love for children. All she ever wanted was to have a family some day. My kids have both been loved by "Princess". They are 3 and 5. She always had so much patience with them. They could do no wrong in her eyes. I thought that Skyler was doing so well sleeping in her own bed, but soon to find out that she was going into Princess' bed instead of mine. Then their was slumber night when she asked Skyler to watch a movie in her room and sleep in her bed. I've never seen a little girl smile so big, or squeel with such excitement. It was hilarious when she tought Khristian the word "boo-bee". He loved to venture into her room to see what he could get into. She took them to Chuck E, Cheese, waterworks, ice- cream, or to the park. The Sunday before she disappeared she picked Sky up to go swimming at her apartment. She left me a message that morning on my phone that she would pick her up after her work out, then bring her back before she had togo work. I wish I had saved that message. That was the last time I saw her. She had promised Sky to goto the movies that week. All week she asked me when Princess was coming to get her. I never lied to her, but tip toed around the truth. The truth that their are very evil people in our world. That they take away the people we love and cherish the most. Heather was like a little sister to me. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her with a smile. I love and miss her, and so do my children. Jen Clements

WE MISS YOU HEATHER

Hello - Thank you all again for your support. People have been wondering about the news, or lack of news in this case. There has been no news because the attorneys are preparing for trial at this time, and there is nothing new to report. The preliminary hearing is coming up in February, so perhaps something new will be reported after this time. Thank you.

To the Carpenter family: I am the mother of two daughters and can never imagine what you must be going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and I truly hope that you make it through this difficult time. I was a 31 year Redding resident. My family and I recently relocated to Ohio and one of my last sights of my hometown were the missing posters all over town bearing your beautiful daughter's picture. I occasionally log on to the Record Searchlight's web site to check up on Redding's news. It was yesterday while visiting this site that I read the news. Once again, I am truly sorry for your loss. I only pray that this will serve as a wake up call to young women who befriend a friendly young man (or woman) at a party, bar, get together, or whatever and assume that it is safe to get into their car.

I just found out about Heather about twenty minutes ago. I knew heather, quite well actually. I went to High School with her and an old best friend of mine was her boy friend for quite some time (Shane). Shane and I moved to Phoenix to go to MMI (college) and he used to talk to her all the time. Hell, I'd talk to sometimes, see whats going on up north cuz I was in phoenix (and still am). I remember her coming down to Phoenix and hanging out with us. SHe was one of the nicest goddamn girls i've ever met. I remember going to her house in Redding, hanging out w/ her and Shane and meeting her family. Anyway... I'm just recollecting myself right now. Having just found out about her disappearance and death in the last twenty minutes has... well... tripped me out a little. Well... I'm glad they found the kid who did it. Damn, this sucks. It really does. If Shane or anyone needs to contact me, hit me up here: donn felker - donnfelker@hotmail.com, donn@gravenine.com

Carpenter Family, I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter. I can remember when I saw the very first Redding Seachlight that announced that she was missing. I have followed the paper and when I heard that there was a web site I followed it and I still do. As time went by and they found her we now can have a closure. Even though it is still hard to not have her around but now we know that she is with God and he is taking great care of her. I did not know Heather but from the stories that I have read in the paper and on this Web Site she was an awesome person. Since the day she was missing I have prayed for her and the family. I wanted to attend her memorial service but it snowed two and a half feet in Dunsmuir and I was not able to. I saw the part of it on News Channel 7. It looked like it went very well. I just wanted to send my condolences to the Carpenter family. I hope the family stays strong. You are in my hearts and prayers everyday.

It is freezing in Pa,but when we come to Heathers site,her beautiful face smiling at us in her picture,warms our hearts.They say something good can come from something bad and I think this will ring true from Heathers tragedy.I hope people will realize just how prescious our family members are to us and quickly they can be taken from us.I hope also people will get more involved in helping too keep crime out of their towns and neighborhoods by using the anonymous tip lines too law enforcement.Write your representatives and let them know how you feel about crime in your areas and make sure all is being done too protect your family members,especially children who are abducted around the clock.Support organizations like Amber Alert,and the Carol Sund organization which are doing all they can for missing persons.Make sure sex offenders are made too register in your town.Its all the little things we can do too prevent another tragedy from happening such as in Heathers case.Always thinking of the Carpenter family and our blessings go out too you today.

My little brother,Corey, would have been 22 this Jan. 29th. He died 2 years ago in tragic motorcycle accident. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. The pain sometimes seemed unbearable, just as I'm sure yours does to. Lives cut so short always seems so tragic and senseless. Your Heather was a beautiful young girl, that I'm sure will be very missed. My heart goes out to you, for I know the rough road that lies ahead of you. May God surround you with his loving arms and comfort you during those dark, lonely, and sometimes unbearable evenings.

heather was a cousin of mine, distant, but cousin none the less. i wish i had met her more than the two times that i had. the last time we saw each other was at our family reunion at lake tahoe. what i do recall of our last meeting i do enjoy, i remember riding jet skis and the wooden criscraft boat we all rode in, i remember the look on her face when i explained my diabetes to her. i know in my heart that she her heard what every person who signed this guest book has said. family that reads this note might better remember me as guy's oldest son. i only wish i was at the memorial service to be with you all, she was my family too. you are all in my heart, and i hope that my thoughts only add to those that everyone else here has voiced.

Heather's memorial service was a beautiful tribute to her. From the slide presentation to the videos of Heather's life-what a fun loving sweet girl she was. We will always remember Heather and I will truly miss her presence at Sun Oaks. "I Hope You Dance" and eternal life to this angel up above. She will never be forgotten and her spirit will be with you always, Ed, Cydney, Heidi, Chris, Heathers Grandparents and the rest of the family. I will keep the Carpenter family in my prayers and continue to light a candle at my church in memory of Heather. Natalie's thoughts and condolences are with you also, Ed & Cydney-Heather was with us at Nats 21st birthday last May 29th. Heather, you are one of God's chosen angels.

I just want to send my condolenses to the Carpenter family although I did not know Heather, I know the pain that you are experiencing first hand. To love, then lost. It will be a journey, a road of bumps and curves, but everything works out in the end. You have to be strong, not only for yourself, but for Heather. She is in a safe place now and you need to stand strong and carry yourself high for her. Make people aware of their surroundings. A lot of young people are naieve these days and need a couple stepping stones to help guide their way sometimes. I should know, I am one of these young people in our disfunctional society today. Please, whatever it takes, stay strong. Heather will forever be in your hearts, in your minds, and always right there by your side. No matter what you do, no matter where you go, she'll be there. Maybe not in form, but when you need someone to talk to, when you need a helping hand look straight to the heavens above and she will be there, the angel to guide your way. I am sorry for your loss and hopefully people will be more aware of things that are happening around them. Thank you for your time and once again, stay strong....You'll always have someone looking out for you.

First off.. To Chris, Family & Friends. My heart is with you in these times of saddness. I grieve with you. I just learned of the outcome of this tragic situation yesterday as I was checking on the site. I did so, often hoping to hear good news... I meet Heather a number of times while in a band with Chris. She was so sweet and soft spoken, truly an angel on earth. I have been reading peoples comments here and just want to remind you all... It is now in the hands of a higher power and it will be dealt with, in justice above ours here on earth. Nobody gets away with it forever. We all go away someday, and those of us who do things outside the laws of humanity will PAY IN THE END. I have my own feelings on who did this and have from the begining, but most of you, likely did as well.

My family was lucky to have shared a few years with Heather and her family. Heather was one of my daughter's best friends in elementary school, where they spent endless nights giggling under the covers and toilet papering Heather's neighbors houses (sorry to everyone!). There were many times when Ashlee would knock on the door, Ed would answer, "Hi Ashlee, what are you doing here?" she would look wide eyed and say that she was spending the night, Ed would answer it would have been nice if someone would have told him...laugh and welcome her into their home once again. That was the wonderful thing about the Carpenter's home, you always knew that your own children would be as loved as their children. Ashlee would often ask to have a friend over for the weekend, but wanting just a little peace and quiet I would quickly answer no, until she would ask if Heather could come over, the answer would always turn to yes. Heather was not a child that you had to entertain and worry about...she was family. She would be as comfortable hanging out with my son, Colby, as she was doing "girly" things with Ashlee. My family was lucky to have shared part of our lifes with this angel...she will always remain a part of our lives.

Dear Carpenter Family; When that awful phone call went out that your precious Angel was missing, the panic and fear that struck your hearts was felt throughout this community. I think almost immediately there were people ready to drain the waterways, cut down all the trees, rip open every door in the city of Redding to find "Heather". I have marveled at your ability to stay calm, and strong as a family unit, I would not have been able to control my emotions I'm afraid. It goes without saying that some amount of closure came with finding "Heather", your world has still been changed forever, nothing is as it should be, but your sweet baby is once again with her family. May you continue to be strong and resolved and focused. You are always in my thoughts, I will continue to wear "Heathers Ribbon". I am going to turn the lights on for Heather when the trial begins, they will serve to remind those here in my community that we must never forget your precious "Angel In Waiting". Much love to you all.........

Today as many of us prepare to resume our busy lives of work or school after the holidays, lets not get so busy that we forget this young woman who touched our hearts so deeply. Lets not forget her wonderful family who made sure we all knew what a special daughter and sister Heather is. They all deserve so much credit for their daughter and sister being found. They introduced us to and let us get to know Heather the person. Instead of just knowing Heather the missing. If it weren't for the persevering love and determination of her family, Heather may well have become just another statistic. But thru the love of her family Heather became to all of us "our girl" So lets not forget them when we pray and let our prayers be that they gain the strength and courage to face the many trying days ahead of them with as much love and dignity as they have shown all during this tragedy. God Bless the Carpenter Family.

Ed and Cydney and Family ..... A week later, I still feel moved by the Memorial Service and the Reception afterwards. The personal words and music and visuals cemented an appreciation of Heather, created an atmosphere of solace and comfort to those attending, and hopefully caused some lessening of your pain. I trust that the sight then of so many around you caring so much for you still gives you strength now. My thanks to those who must have worked so hard to have made these events work so well.

I still remember where I was the moment I heard Heather was missing. I was speechless and I wanted to do anything and everything I could to help. I became mad at those who thought Heather disappeared on her own. I knew Heather would never put her family through this pain & agony. Now the worst has been confirmed. 4 ½ months later & I still don’t have to right words. I am firm believer in “everything happens for a reason” but it doesn’t make it any easier to understand why something so bad happened to someone so undeserving & innocent. It was important for me to attend Heather services where I knew we would celebrate her life, but unfortunately I was unable to make it. May our memories we have of Heather remain in our hearts forever. Heather touched so many lives during her time here. I know she touched mine. Words cannot enough express how I feel and how this horrible tragedy has effected me. I wish I had the right words to comfort you and take your pain away. God is with you through thick and thin. I have prayed for you & cried with you for the last 22 weeks. I wish I could hug you & tell you how sorry I am. As I read this guestbook daily I am touched that so many people from all over offer their condolences and sympathy, that so many have been touched by Heather or her story. So many of these people were not blessed with the opportunity to know Heather on a personal level and I am thankful that I have. I am very frustrated w/ people talking about Patrick being a good kid and the pain that the Larmours are going through, all IN HEATHER’S GUESTBOOK. Heather’s family & friends are the ones enduring the pain & hurt. It was their child & friend that was good. Their determination to find Heather and bring her home is something Heather would be proud of. Please remember they/we do not want to, nor do need to, hear about Patrick and his family and friends. It sickens me that anyone could believe in his innocence. PLEASE DO NOT DEFEND THE ACCUSED IN HEATHERS GUESTBOOK. To those who would like to hear stories of Heather, just know there are so many little stories as Heidi has said. I went to school with Heather and lost touch after graduation. There are so many things I remember but most of all how goofy she was, how warm her heart was and how much she trusted everyone around her. Heather knew me as ’Bertha’ and I knew her as ‘Olga’ Heather, all my life I have been afraid of death and I still am…. But when it is time for me to face that fear I hope you are there with your perkiness, unforgettable laugh and beautiful smile to help me through it.

Dear Family,Just wanted to remind you that prayers are still going on for you and yours through my household, family, friends and church. May God Be With You Always and Forver! I saw that someone named Angie that also knew Heather asked for people to type out some stories and memories of Heather. I would love for that too. So, this is just a second request. :) I do not have very many of her as we were not very close in high school. All I remember is that her and I were both known for our goofy, laughy, silly personalities, and I think thats what brought us together the little that we were. It's unfortunate that we didn't know each other better. So those of you that were able too.... be so grateful for it and appreciate the little time you at least were able to have with such a neat human being. Lots of Love...

Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter: I am so sorry about your daughter. I know she was very very special and absolutely beautiful. Please know that you are in my prayers. She is in our Lord's hands now...safe and happy. There are many of us here in Modesto who know what you are going through, as we have shed many tears while mourning for Laci and Conner. Now, when you look up in the sky and see another star twinkling..there she is right next to them. I pray that our Lord puts His arms around your family and gives you some peace. In God's love, Candy

The last time I saw Heather was the evening of her father's birthday party. She told me that we do not see eachother often enough, so we decided that a good idea would be to get our hair done together (this would mean that we would see eachother every few weeks). I was going to drive up to Redding from Sacramento every 6 weeks so that we could see eachother. I am so sad that we aren't able to do this now. I miss her so much. she and I always had such deep discussions when we were together, and I always felt so close to her. I enjoyed talking with her and being around her so much. I would love to hear more stories about Heather from friends and family members.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. The memorial service was beautiful ... a great tribute to an exceptional young woman. I will never forget Heather and the joy she brought to this world. I think of your family every day, cry almost every night, and hold my own children tighter each time I give them a hug. Knowing she is with God is the only peace I can feel right now. Love, Jami

A while back, there was a post made by someone offering their time and talent to paint a mural in tribute to Heather somewhere in Redding. I am VERY interested in this idea taking off! Any ideas on how to go about getting supplies and a location for the artist? What a wonderful way to remember Heather in a community that has shown so much love and compassion!!!! Let's get this started as soon as possible!!!
