May God be with all of you and help you to heal with memories of his days on earth. He is at peace with himself and is free of pain. Talk about him everyday-keep him alive for although he is no longer with you he is not far away.

Fernando is walking the streets of gold in heaven. He no longer is in pain and he is able to breath and run and have fun with all the other little children in Heaven. He is in God's loving arms where you will see him again some day.
All of you are in my prayers.
Love,
A mother of another little angel in Heaven.
