God be with you

Thinking of you all with much love Andrea B

I am a part of you though brief the time we shared. Take comfort, be healed I'm safe in loving care. Remember me with joy, lift a smile to the skies. Say a prayer for me, let there be no sad goodbyes. I will always be your baby our hearts joined by love. Perfect as an angel, I am watching from above and one day we will meet again. I will be that angel with out stretched arms at Heaven's gate. I love you Mommy and Auntie

I'm so sorry about your precious baby. I found a scripture on JW.org that I like to share, Acts 24:15, "there is going to be a resurrection," I wish your family the very best for the future.

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
