Tasha,

I just wanted to let you know that I will never forget sweet little Hannah. She is forever in my thoughts and you are forever in my prayers. I just hope that with every passing day it gets just a little easier for you. I know that this guest book is going to expire soon and I just wanted to let you know you are loved and not forgotten! Stay strong for your little boys...they need you. Hugs and lots of love from San Diego!

Dear Tasha, Michael, Aidan, and Colin,
I know I have expressed my sympathy for your loss of Hannah in person, but I would also like to leave another heartfelt expression of sympathy in writing. My thoughts and prayers are with you daily. There is no clear guide on how to work your way through this -- no right or wrong way. All of you will grieve in your own way and time. No matter how you do it, it will not take away from the gift of your beautiful, loving, sweet Hannah. Take good care of all of you. Kathleen Matthews

Tasha & Mike;



Words can not express how deeply sorry I am for your tragic loss. I want you to know that you are all in my prayers. I only can say that time will help you to learn to live with such a loss. I don’t know why things like this happen and it seems so unfair and in-just; it is. May the grace of God comfort you in this time of deep sadness. May you know that your friends love you and miss you and send you their deepest love and sorrow.



I have no more words that I can put down to express or do justice to such a terrible loss; however I do offer myself and anything that you might need to help. Please call or let me know if there is something that I can do to help out in your time of need. We grew up together and I always loved you and cared for you even though it may not have always seemed that way Tasha but I think back to the pool days and all of our group I consider family. I love and miss you and want you to know that you have friends who are here for you and care very deeply for you and love you.



Love Luke

She was a beautiful baby girl and we're glad your lives were blessed with her for a short time. Take care of each other during this hard time. We'll be praying for all of you. Hannah will always be remembered.

Dear Tasha, Mike, Aiden, Colin, Dan, Leslie & Chris,

Few words can be spoken at this difficult time, but hope the following ones will bring you comfort:

A life so young released to heaven.... left on earth, we wonder "why?" But some are sent among us briefly... some have spirits meant to fly.

“A heavenly blue butterfly will fly high in the sky, higher and higher. The sunlight will touch the blue on its wings until it seems to disappear. We think it is gone, because the blue of the butterfly is the exact same blue of the sky. We think it is gone, because our eyes are too weak to see - and it is difficult to believe what we cannot see. But the blue butterfly is not gone. It is still flying, higher and higher nearer the sun. For now and forever as is Hannah Rose.”

Take one day at a time; one minute at a time if you need to. The pain of your loss will lessen in time, but Hannah’s memory will live on with you forever.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Love from your cousins, Audrey & Steve

We are so saddened by this loss to our family; however, we know that Hannah was fortunate to have chosen such loving parents and brothers to share in her short life on earth. She was a precious spirit who fulfilled her requirements in this life and returned to her maker where she will be loved and cared for until we all meet again. Mike, Tasha, Colin and Aiden, we love you and will remember you in our prayers. May God continue to comfort and bless you.

God has received another special angel in heaven. I feel your pain and saddness and pray for peace and comfort. I went thru this kind of thing just three short months ago with my own grandchild. I work with Myrna and have heard about all the special events in Hannah's wonderful life and her special brothers. May God bless you and comfort your family at this time.
