I answered yes when Henry and Theresa asked that I stand as godmother to Steven. I can not count the times when I visited that I did not hear Theresa yelling," Steven Gerard". He was always smiling and full of play. Theresa and family I am in a high altitude and after hearing about Steven's death I looked to the sky. I am sure that I noticed a twinkle then a bright star place itself in the sky. Theresa I love you and pray that God give you the power to overcome another loss. Carol
