Please, a lock of her hair...
Is that asking too much?
She is my firstborn.
She knows Mother's touch.
I ask you to think back to your wedding day...
Her Father and I..gave her away..
To you Michael.
Her fate was sealed and you broke the trust.
How could you hurt her? How could you treat her thus?
Do you not realize that Terri would not have been born except for the love between Bob and I.
A lock of her hair is all that I ask.
You have owned her body for so many years...
Are you not moved by a Mother's tears?
You have a son and a daughter I'm told...
Do you not know, you will reap what you sow.
Your daughter will grow up and marry someday.
Will her husband abuse her in the same way?
What will you do if she takes Terri's place in a hospice bed?
You will rue the day you wanted my daughter dead.
Your child's husband will be guardian to her.
The day will come Michael, when you will truly suffer.
It's too late now for a lock of Terri's hair.
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust....Vengence is mine, Jesus said as much.
I look forward to heaven where Terri is waiting for me.
It's such a comfort to know she is now free.
A lock of her hair? I don't need it.
Terri's spirit is here to comfort me.
Thank God...Your face she will never, ever have to see.

I was just about to ping you to this thread, :-)

I've never heard the term "Angelic Princess"; but that's how Terri looks in this amazing portrait.
You created this?
Aww! God must have let you see Terri!
I can only imagine what is being said in heaven right now:)
Her parents and siblings should see this. Their hearts would be comforted by it.
Great job....GOD and John Paul II are smiling together today
a powerful message.
Michael Schiavo has many worse things to answer for but pettiness and unnecessary cruelty are on the list.
Here are two links to articles that mention a lock of Terri's hair. Hope this helps.

I noticed the mention of Mary Jo Kopeckne at the bottom of your message. Some say the young woman was expecting a child when she was killed; oops! I mean, tragically drowned.
An only child, too. So sad.
Thank you very much for the links.
