Hayley Petit Memoriam

HAYLEY ELIZABETH PETIT
10-15-89 - 07-23-07
HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY HAYLEY

"I remember in this solemn hour, beloved daughter the many joys
you afforded me during your lifetime. I recall the days when I
delighted in your physical and mental growth and planned for your
future. Though death has taken you from me, you are not forgotten.
Your spirit is enshrined in my heart. Heavenly God, I thank You for
the precious gift that You entrusted to my keeping, and which in
Your infinite wisdom You recalled. Though few were the years I
rejoiced with my daughter, many were the blessings that she
brought into my household. Teach me to live more nobly and to
extend my love and devotion to others in thankfulness for the
privilege of having had and loved this child. May her soul be bound
up in the bond of eternal life and may her memory remain an
inspiration to all who loved her."

You did many, many good deeds with faith in your short life more
in 17 years than most do in a lifetime.

MUCH LOVE,
Dad and the Petit, Hawke, Chapman & Renn families

Such a beautiful, courageous young woman. Stay close to your Dad and continue to shower him with your faith, strength, and courage... which you have been blessing him with from the moment you were born. Rest In Peace Haley. You are and always will be an example of love, kindness, and an inspiration of hope and humanity.

Words escape me...instead of being able to summon strength for her family at yet another sad milestone, I instead turn to their words for solace.
Thank you, dear family, for having shared your precious Haley with the world!
