I heard recently of your loss. It is one of life's most tragic occurances - to lose a child. You have my deepest sympathy and I understand your pain. I too lost a child and understand what you are going through. Know he's in God's hands and let that be of some comfort to you.

Johnny&Cheena,

I am so sorry for the loss of your precious son,"NUS" was one of a kind.I adored that little angel,he was so special and will be missed.

I would like to pass along a scripture that was givin by my sister who also lost her precious son "JASON"

TO ALL PARENTS

"I'LL LEND YOU FOR A LITTLE TIME,A CHILD OF MINE," HE SAID,"FOR YOU TO LOVE WHILE HE LIVES,AND MOURN WHEN HE'S DEAD."IT MAY BE SIX OR SEVEN YEARS,OR TWENTY-TWO OR THREE,"BUT WILL YOU,TILL I CALL HIM BACK,TAKE CARE OF HIM FOR ME? HE'LL BRING HIS CHARMS TO GLADDEN YOU,AND SHALL HIS STAY BE BRIEF,YOU'LL HAVE HIS LOVELY MEMORIES AS SOLACE FOR YOU GRIEF.I CANNOT PROMISE HE WILL STAY,SINCE ALL FROM EARTH RETURN.BUT THERE ARE LESSONS TAUGHT DOWN THERE I WANT THIS CHILD TO LEARN.I'VE LOOKED THE WIDE WORLD OVER IN MY SEARCH FOR TEACHERS TRUE,AND FROM THE THRONGS THAT CROWD LIFE'S LANES,I HAVE SELECTED YOU.NOW,WILL YOU GIVE HIM ALL YOUR LOVE,NOR THINK THE LABOR VAIN; NOR HATE ME WHEN I COME TO TAKE HIM BACK AGAIN?

I FANCIED THAT I HEARD THEM SAY,"DEAR LORD,THY WILL BE DONE!"

FOR ALL THE JOY THY CHILD SHALL BRING,THE RISK OF GRIEF WE'LL RUN.

WE'LL SHOWER HIM WITH TENDERNESS;WE'LL LOVE HIM WHILE WE MAY,AND FOR THE HAPPINESS WE'VE KNOWN,FOREVER-GRATEFUL STAY;

BUT SHOULD THE ANGELS CALL FOR HIM MUCH SOONER THAN WE'VE PLANNED,

WE'LL BRAVE THE BITTER GRIEF THAT COMES AND TRY TO UNDERSTAND".

GOD BLESS YOU BOTH.

When somebody dies, a cloud turns into an angel, and flies up to tell God to put another flower on a pillow.

A bird gives the message back to the world, and sings a silent prayer

that makes the rain cry. People disappear, but they never really go away.

The spirits up there put the sun to bed, wake up grass, and spin the earth in dizzy circles. Sometimes you can see them dancing in a cloud during the day-time, when they're supposed to be sleeping. They paint the rainbows and also the sunsets and make waves splash and tug at the tide.

They toss shooting stars and listen to wishes. And when they sing wind songs, they whisper to us, don't miss me too much. The view is nice and I'm doing just fine.

With deepest sympathy.
