May God Bless your little soul, Chris. You are safe, now. It was such a pleasure to have gotten to know you. I will never forget your happy little smile and chuckle. God Bless you. And, Carmella, there are no words that I can say to take away your pain. You were so blessed to have such a wonderful child and Hersham in your life. He was a good man.

I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your Cristiano. I had also lost a son when he was 6 1/2 and after reading the other entry here, I can validate that when children pass young they are 'special' souls that are just not meant to be here long. When we are born the angels cry and we rejoice on this side, when we return to home, we cry on this side and the angels rejoice. Your little angel with help you walk this journey....and it will be a hard one for a while. In time it does get easier and life goes fast...You will one day see him again.

God Bless your little Angel

I am so Sorry for your loss of Cris and Hesham. My son Nicholas is a friend of Cris's from school in his class. My son always spoke of your son/nephew/grandson/brother/cousin with love. He considered him one of his best friends. Cris is a wonderful boy who helped my son start a new year in a new school with special needs to come out of his shell and play with the other kids on the playground.

Our Precious Angels

Jesus said, "...Suffer the little children to come unto Me and forbid them not, for of such is the Kingdom of Heaven..."
