To all of Amelia's Family:
Words cannot even begin to convey the pain you are going through. My daughter Abby G.(3 yrs) who attends the same school as Amelia talked about Amelia often and still does,because even though the children are not in the same class the children know who everyone is and who is missing from school each day. I know my Abby knows she is not there.Our family has been praying daily for you to find peace and comfort through the beautiful memories Amelia brought to you.

Dear Tom and family,
I work with your grandmoter. I am truly saddened by the news of your daughter, Amelia. I never had the honor of meeting her but the look on your face, Tom, when you spoke of her and the visits with your grandmother says it all. You will be in my prayers and please know that your little Angel on earth is now a beautiful Angel in heaven watching over her family! I am there to care for your grandmother and will do everything I can to help you. May you find strength in the memories of your sweet precious girl. Prayers are with you.
My deepest sympathy.

Stacy, Georgette and Family,

I,a Mother a Grandmother feel your loss and your Pain.

I dont know what to say other than I love you all and pray for you to get through this.

We ask - "Why?" "Why Lord would you want to take my Baby?"

The thing is we can't question the work of the Lord. He has taken back what he gave to you.

Its hard to accept this, but the short period of time you had with Amelia was a BLESSING FROM GOD.

Amelia has left you all with such sweet Memories. She will never be erased from your Minds or your hearts. Therefore her spirit remains with you always.

I find this hard to accept ALL THIS myself, I love you family and feel your pain. We have to try!

I remember talking on the phone to you Georgette, I remember when she was born, you telling me about her Big Blue Eyes, you saying "Phyl she has Red hair and these big blue eyes, she is gorgeous."

Stacey, I still have all the pictures you sent to me of Amelia and I remember the one with the little Tam HAT on. I loved that one.

This is so very hard to accept. I pray and each day it will get a little easier.

The Lord must of had a pretty important job for Little Amelia to partake. Be honored that he called on HER to be back at his side. She is an important Little Angel whom has big responsibilities.(smile)

Being honest!, Family!,Georgette!, Stacy!, these things I also keep telling Myself. I too am just devastated and am having a hard time accepting this news.

I too have asked the same questions as you. I too am searching for a way to relieve this pain.

"We love you little one."

I guess we have to remember that:

You will get a chance to see her again, she will be there to welcome you when you arrive at the gates of Heaven where she now resides again.

Stacey be strong. Amelia saw you only as a strong and her safe haven. She will want you to continue that way.

Georgette and the rest of the family support one another in this time of sorrow. God has his reason, if we only knew what it was, maybe that would lessen our pain. We have to Pray to him to help us accept his decision.

Think how beauitful Amelia is with her wings smiling and glowing in the presence of the Lord.

I love you Amelia and I love your Family,

A friend always,
sorrowfully,
Phyl

April 25, 2009

Even though it is painful to say, and I would rather she be here with us, we must remember that she is now in a better place. She has touched our lives in such a special way with her beautiful smile and sweet voice.

God taking our "Meals" so young only confirms, what we already knew, what a special sweet soul she is that he would give her her wings so early in life.

Until we meet again sweetheart.

I Love You.

Tiny Angels

Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook her head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And for that I love you so".

Words alone will not dull your pain, but hopefully the memory of your sweet little girl will help sustain you through your grief.

To the family and friends of Amelia,

My best memory of Amelia was our first meeting. She was wearing a Taylor Swift shirt, when I asked her about the shirt, she started singing her favorite songs to me. This is just one of the things I will remember about her.

No other loss is as great as a parent losing a child. Your little girl is now in the arms of God awaiting a beautiful reunion someday with all who loved her.
Then all tears will be wiped away. Please know that heaven is being flooded at this time with prayers for you and all who know you. We pray for God's comforting arms to surround you with the knowledge that little Amelia is safe and happy until you see her again.

As the sun rose today,it's rays shone so bright.The songbirds sang clearer,the songs all took flight.Flowers burst with color,so sharp and so clear.The wind blew gently,it caressed my tear.As i breath in the day and gaze in the sky,the clouds billow softly as to lift me up high. The blue sky breaths softly, with peace and calm glow,it gleams with such purity,it's this i must know.Weve been given great gifts from god for all to see, this gift he's given is the best gift to me.A new angel shines down from the heavens above, we are blessed with this angel,this day shows her love.You are all in my prayers.

Tom & Stacy,
My heart goes out to you and your family. I am so saddened to hear of your loss..you do not even know me, but I too lost a 2 1/2 year old son, Joseph Allen Oglialoro, known as Joey, on January 2nd of this year....He is deeply missed and there is an emptiness that I feel will never go away...you have to hold onto every possible memory, find trust in God, and take in all the support from friends, family and strangers around you..they are the ones that lift you up, they are all still helping me cope. Also find comfort taking care of your other child...I too have a younger boy, Blake. I can only hold him tighter and tell him I love him more and more, whatever you do, don't push Amelia's siblings away, I've used Blake as my rock the past few months. He is also what has helped me get through this so called Nightmare. You are going to have days that you feel you are in such a fog you don't know what to do and you will find your way...Tom you aparently work or worked with Joe Deseris...He and his family are the most amazing people-Fawnia and Cindy both knew my Joey very well..they have helped me get through our tragic loss, and told me of yours..it just really hit home, so I had to sign in. May the sun keep shining and bring you brighter days then you have had to endure this week. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll keep you all in my prayers...Joey and Amelia are playing together right now...they are our angels in heaven. You will come across signs that Amelia is okay..it's been a few months and I'm finally receiving signs that Joey is around in a spiritual sense...both Amelia and Joey are still a part of us. May they remain in our hearts forever.

Tom, I can't even begin to say how sorry I am that Amelia is gone. She was such a lovely little girl, had a heart of gold. Her smile would light up the room. Mya is going to really miss her best friend as she called her. I am so glad they got to play together on Saturday, they both had a blast. You have a very special angel looking over you. Please, if there is anything we can do for you, give a call. We are here for you. She will be dearly missed.

A Prayer for Infants and Young Children:
Dear God, we know that in Your Divine Mercy, You would never will the death of a child, but You allow certain things to happen, because they are all part of the mystery of Your Divine Plan. We can never hope to fully understand these things, but we pray for Your Grace and Strength to help us accept that over which we have no control. We know that, in your Fatherly Love, You will never give us more than we are capable of enduring, and that when You close one door, You always open another. Give us the strength, in this time of grief and loss, to find that door, and the Peace that awaits us on the other side. Keep this little one safe in the arms of Your Son, Jesus Christ, until the day that we are all reunited and every tear is wiped away. Amen.

A Dad who grieves for your loss, and will pray for you and your child daily
