Sophia Florence Fanello

Dearest Sophia,
I think about you all of the time. You are so special to so many people. I miss you and pray that you are looking down at your mommy and daddy and taking good care of them. You will forever be our angel.

Bob & Meg,

There is not a day that goes by that I don't think you and Sophia. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I know Sophia is looking down on you and smiling and saying that she has the most wonderful parents and thanking you for everything you did for her. Please know that Mike and I are here for you always. We have such a wonderful group of friends that we should all be thankful for. We Love You both! God Bless.

Meg & Bob, Maryann & Fran,
I am so saddened by your loss. I came upon the notice in the Palos Citizen this morning and it just broke my heart. I know I never met your little one, but I know she was precious and my heart goes out to you. Be strong for each other.
From your old friend from Morrill, Marie Dahlstrom

Bob & Meg,

You're in our prayers please try to stay strong. Nothing can express how sorry we are for the holes left in your hearts.

I see tears fall down your face
When your thoughts have turned to me.

Just know that I’m in heaven,
With my Lord, who’s set me free.

No pain or sadness do I feel,
For God is by my side.

The beauty here in Heaven
Is now where I reside.

I know it’s hard for you to cope
For you can’t feel my touch.

But every moment, I can see
And love you very much.

When you are at your lowest
And feel you can’t go on,

Look towards the...

Dear Sophia,
I never knew you but your life has touched my heart. Your Auntie Katie talked about your brave fight, your beautiful smile and how you touched the lives of those around you. While I am so very sad for your family that you did not get to stay long on this Earth, I know that you are looking down from Heaven, smiling, laughing, playing and being an angel of God and watching over your family now. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May God's love, wisdom, comfort and healing...

Meg & Bob-
In my opinion Sophia was always God's littlest angel. Put here to teach us all something about ourselves. During her short time here, she touched SO many lives. I am sure that as we speak, she now has the BIGGEST smile on her face, the one she has been waiting to adorn for the last 10 months. She is smiling down at her Mom and Dad, so proud of how much you love her, and how much you believed in her thru it all. My heart breaks for you both, and I will always be here for...

Bob and Meg,

It has been a privilage to be part of Sophia's life. She will always be in our memories and will have an endless place in our hearts. We will always be there for both of you.

Dear Bob & Meg,
No words can be found to express my sympathy for you, but I just wanted to say how proud you both should be of yourselves. You never stopped searching for answers for Sophia's illness, and most important, you gave her more unconditional love than some people experience in a lifetime. May you finally find peace knowing that your little girl is in heaven and isn't suffering anymore.
