The words still escape me after another year goes by with you not here with all of us. The hole in my heart is as big today as the day you left us. It will never be filled until I hug your neck in heaven. We all miss you so much and struggle daily navigating this life here without you. The kids are growing up so fast and need your guidance so much. Please continue to watch down over us and protect us all. Thank you for sending your little signs that you are still standing right beside us when we need them most. I love you son and will carry your spirit in my soul forever. God speed and continue smiling down on us all. Missing you eternally!♥♥♥♥♥♥

Bart and Sarah there are no words to describe my deep sorrow for the loss of your precious first born. A child that I fondly remember runni g around at church with his sister Meghan and the other rugrats that roamed halls, gym, or church that we were meeting at ☺...You did a fine job raiding them both and no doubt God will be merciful in your pain and sorrow..He may not have been an angel on earth, but he is now one in heaven.

Son God granted me the privilege to be your mom in this world. The day you were born my heart was changed forever, filled with an intense love only a mom understands. I will always cherish my memories you imprinted upon my heart and mind. I don't quite know how I will move forward from here, but promise you to make sure those you left behind will always know you and be taken care of. So at night when I go out to let the dogs out and I look up and say hello, just touch my heart with your smile and let me know you're watching over us. I love you eternally. Mom
