Tempest Smith was bullied by her classmates for her interest in Wicca, her Goth clothing, and
because she was shy. She is one of the many victims of bullycide (suicide caused by bullying).
Tempest's mother, Danessa Smith, filed a lawsuit against the school, claiming they had turned a
blind eye to the teasing and could have prevented Tempest's suicide.
bullying is a crime.how so very sad.tempest was obviously going through the normal stages of growing up.it defies belief that a school could turn a blind eye.so sorry for her.god bless pet x
Dear Friend
Though it's been close to nine years since we lost this wonderful girl, her memory is still as strong as ever. I remember her well, and remember her often. I miss her more, and just wish that I could see and talk to her again. She really was the best friend anyone could ever ask for, I guess it took too long to realize it for me. I'm sorry Tempest. I still remember when she came to me mad as ever about the chants. I tried to defend her. I'm sorry.
im so sorry for your loss . shes with the angels now. my son was bullied at school too because his hair was ginger .he even asked me to have it cut off .his with the angels too. he had a massive asthma attack
god called your name ''tempest'' so gently...
God called your name so gently,
That only you could hear.
No one heard the footsteps,
Of angels drawing near.
Softly from the shadows
There came a gentle call,
You closed your eyes and went to sleep,
And quietly left us all.

Letter From Heaven
When tomorrow starts without me,
and I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes,
all filled with tears for me;
I wish so much you wouldn't cry,
the way you did today,
while thinking of the many things,
we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
as much as I love you,
and each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me,
please try to understand,
that an Angel came and called my name,
and took me by the hand,
and said my place was ready,
in heaven far above,
and that I'd have to leave behind,
all those I dearly love.
But as I turned to walk away,
a tear fell from my eye,
for all life, I'd always thought,
I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for,
so much yet to do,
it seemed almost impossible,
that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays,
the good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the love we shared,
and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday,
just even for awhile,
I'd say goodbye and kiss you
and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized,
that this could never be,
for emptiness and memories,
would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
my heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me,
from His great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you".
Today for life on earth is past,
but here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
but today will always last,
and since each day's the same day,
there's no longing for the past.
But you have been so faithful,
so trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things,
you knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand
and share my life with me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
don't think we're far apart,
for every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.
