Rte 106.  Plympton.  Many of us had to go there.  A lot.  I looked for her there.  Did you?  I could not find her exactly, could you?  As you will see, I am finding her, more and more and more...  Starting from the beginning...

Every piece of glass that might have touched her had to be treasured.

Every note left in the rain and the mud saved...

Priscilla, who rode next to Torri in the back seat that day and struggles with painful injuries,

and the memory of the girl she loved dying next to her ("I just remember hearing, she has no pulse"),

scribbled this note after arriving at the Emergency Room.  Her brother wanted us to have it.

at first...

When Torri died suddenly we left books at the accident site on Route 106 in Plympton, and where Torri was buried in Hanover.  I recently brought the books home, temporarily, to scan them for this website.

Blind Faith

 The topic was faith.  What that means to have faith.  Some say it is a risk to have this.  I wanted to know, from the people tonight, what happens when their faith translated into prayer does not work out.  For instance, Tuesday morning, May 16th, I woke up and talked to something in my head, God maybe, and asked that Torri stay safe.  I asked this all the time.  It was routine.

It comes down not only to faith, but another part of faith, called acceptance of the unknown.  Our brains cannot comprehend the galaxies, the universe, eternity, among so many other things that don't have words, or our perception.  I left my class, determined to drive straight past the Hill. This song came on the radio.

 

Artist: Blind Faith
Song: Presence Of The Lord


I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
I know that I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.

I have finally found a place to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But soon I'll open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
Everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a place to live
In the presence of the Lord.
In the presence of the Lord.

I have finally found a way to live
Just like I never could before.
And I know I don't have much to give,
But I can open any door.

Everybody knows the secret,
I said everybody knows the score.
I have finally found a way to live
In the color of the Lord.

Dear torris mom,

I celebrate "torris mom" and hold her/you in my heart. And I also greet with all of my love and respect that which is You and prior to, beyond and inclusive of the particular identity of torris mom.

Thank you for adding the presence of your light to my page and to our world.

To your deepest joy, peace, inspiration, fulfillment and unconditional freedom.

Love and namaste,

Ellen

Love Waking up to Itself

Essentially, there is only Love and what does not know itself yet as Love.

As Love meets Love in form, as it recognizes itself, it spreads everywhere waking itself up to its own glory!

It is the difference as it wakes up to its sameness through the play of the poles; as it it is embraced in the rapture of the oneheart, tingling more manyness into oneness, more diversity and multiplicity into unity.
it is one tasting itself through two.

sound loves so much it grew ears so that it may hear itself
beauty loves so much it grew eyes so that it may see itself
the senses are born from the love that we are in its delight to taste itself
you are born from the love that i am so that i may love myself
i am your creation
you are my love
we can see this when there is no one to be yours
and no one to be mine
being breathed sublime
faces of the divine
at play
in the fields of
time

-Ellen Davis

Hello!

I wasn’t sure if I should write this, but I did it any ways..

I was on klimt's page and so I got to this page. I am very extremely sorry for what happened to your beautiful daughter. It’s unbelievable. She is gone, but just looking at her is an inspiration to me.
And in other ways this also an eye opener, it’s a perfect image of how worthless life is. How it can all be gone in a blink of an eye.

I actually knew another beautiful girl like your daughter (a fellow model) who was 19 and died in a car accident. You can visit her page on myspace. www.myspace.com/heatherbratton

Any ways I wont bother you further, my prayers are with you and your angel. Stay strong.

Much love
Valentia

michelle

your daughters soul can resonate to strangers she was/is beautiful in everyway. pay attention cause shes still with you. i never met her but i found the website one day and than another day i was just sitting in a car waiting for my brother while he was in a bank and i thought of her. the wind blew. now im not a religious person or anything, i dont really believe in all that stuff but it kinda caught my attention. it made me think something ive never thought of before. so if it can happen to me than i know shes definately with you at all times. and you are in my thoughts and heart from now on. be proud. you made an angel :)

love
michelle

hi torris mom
 hey... i stumbled across your myspace a while ago and have found it once again. i just want to let you know that i am so sorry, i really am. i know that you must hear that a lot, and its only words, but still, i really am terribly sorry about what happened to torri that day. i never met her, but i am friends with priscilla. i hugged you at torris wake and all i could feel was intense pain, just complete sadness. i just want you to know that i pray for you and torri and priscilla and all of torris friends everyday. i hope that over time things get a little better for everyone. the day of the accident i sat outside on the steps and cried in the pouring rain and lightening just imagining this girl..and how her life had ended on that very day for no good reason at all. a few months later my friend brittany allsopp died in a car crash, im sure you heard abotu it. in fact, i went to her grave a few days ago and saw a picture of torri there. it was so sad but such a nice thing. i dont know, i just want you to know that im thinking about you and your in my prayers and that although i didnt get to meet torri, she has influanced my life. im so sorry.
with love, terri manganello

 Dream
 Hi lucy my name is Natalie Brown and my cousin Ashley is close friends with Priscilla. I wanted to tell you that I had a dream about Torri even though I never ever meet her. I just recently went on my first plane ride and vacation to the bahamas and while I was there I was having some very vivid dreams about my life and friends. Usually if i dream i never remember. I remember this one as if I had known her my whole life. I was on the plane and talking with someone about some cds that were very sentimental to me and I was mad because there were scratched and could not figure out what to do with them as they would not play. That is when the person I was talking to in my dream said that I need to give them to Torri and she would know and take care of whatever the problem is and I vividly remember walking down the isle of the plane and turning and there she was smiling and listening to music. She smiled not sure if she said anything as I can only remember the wide, bright ear to ear smile she had and at that moment when I gave her the cds I could not believe what I felt once she took them and our hands touched it was as if she were really right there. I woke up the next day and every day since I have been home and I see her face. I am so sorry for your loss and all that you, mr. wightman and your family have been thru my payers are with you and your entire family.

My husband and I just lost his little brother at 14 yrs old to a hit and run (alledged drunk) driver on 10/1/05 and we just hit the first year and it still feels like yesterday. If you go on my page you'll see he is my # one friend well just thought you should know so sorry for bothering you and if this upset you so sorry for that just thought you should know.

I would be so honored if you put it up there seeing as I did not know her in this life (I really wish I could have).

I have no idea what the cds were it was the strangest thing as soon as I looked at her face and saw her smile and looked into her eyes and I woke up she was all I could rememeber and think about to this day.
