For when I see the clouds up above.
I think of you and nothing else.
Why did you have to go?
We all miss you so.
If only you were here,
to see the smiles and laughs.
Why can’t you be here with us?
For when your oldest sister has her first boy,
it is hard on all to say goodbye.
None of us will ever understand,
but I guess it as the way to be.
Don’t ask me why so sweet one,
why you had to be the chosen one.
I guess it was because people needed you up above,
and God had seen it as hello.
We will always miss you as you do us,
but not to worry my dear,
we will unite one of the tragic horrifying days,
we will become what we once never were before the fun,
before the sobbing of sane.
Mom will become of you as you already are of her.
For we will soon become one that we never were before.

I I’m so sorry..I love u with all my heart forever.
“Even if I say it’ll be alright, Still I hear you say you want to end your life. Now and again we try to just stay alive, maybe we’ll turn it all around ’cause it’s not too late, it’s never too late” Goodbye
~life is short so live it up, fear the pain and don’t give up. Hiding the tears you have inside just makes you wanna say good bye. leaving the ones you love behind is like trying to commit suicide. It’s hard to say goodbye hiding those tears within your eyes. Holding on until you brake, leaving the pieces you can no longer tape!!….
I have more I wanna say but I’m at school and the bell is going 2 ring I luv u….

Heaven sent me an angel
I like to call him Gabriel
He’s here with me a little while
Then heaven wants him back!
To good for this world but I want him to stay
He makes life more bearable for me
In every single way.
I’ve been blessed with his happiness
And honored buy his grace
Heaven sent me a baby angel
To love in everyway!
His smile lights a room
Whenever he’s around.
Heaven gave me a miracle
A baby boy who makes me proud
No one ever touched my heart or made me care like this
He’s taught me how to love and care
Heavens holiest gift
And I pray his presence with me will be filled with joyful times
Not a dull moment I’ve ever felt, since Gabriel’s been around!
So i thank heaven for the greatest gift
Of a boy to call my own.
Steph and Reid – I viewed Gabriel’s tribute video on-line today and what a precious baby he was. I’m sending you love and healing thoughts, now and in the days to come. He was certainly welcomed with open arms by many family members and friends. May it help to know that others too feel your loss and grieve with you. My deepest sympahty.
Love you ~ Aunt Sherry
