You were a lovely sweet baby and the light of my life. You grew into a caring loving individual who seeemed to have the ability to know when others were hurting and in pain and do something to help. You showed such strenght when you were ill and in terrible pain. I will miss you putting your arms around me and telling me "I love you Mom" every day of my life until I see you once again in heaven!

I just wish I could see your smile once more dad. We will all be ok here on earth and will think about you everyday. I love you more than you would ever know.
