Damien "Dax" Hunsaker

08/29/1983 ~ 11/26/2005

Happy Birthday Son. You are 42!

You made everyone's world so colorful with your radiant smile and gentle soul.

You have been my greatest joy, and your loss my greatest pain.

"There is no tragedy in life like the death of a child. Things never get back to the way they were."

D.D. Eisenhower

I love you to Infinity!

My son used to hang with Dax, Matt Beckstead, and we were devastated when we heard of Dax's passing. He was such a nice , cute guy. I'm so sorry for your loss.
