In Loving Memory
This page is dedicated to the
"Little Angels" who have left us, for the time being.
Once again with deep sadness that
I once again have to add to this page. In 8/02 PJ lost her
daughter, Joy, who was 2 1/2 years old. Please feel free to
visit Joy's homepage at:
www.lebaronfamily.com
Joy's
stroke was caused by Lupus Anticoagulant and she also had ONH/SOD.
She passed away from Cerebral Edema of an unknown cause.
May
she rest in peace.
The Rivers of Tears will Never Quell my
Fears" by Allison Rhode. Allison wrote this quote when her son,
Stephen, became ill at the age of 2.
It is now with great sadness that I announce the passing of
Stephen C. Rhode, age 6, son of Allison and Michael Rhode. He passed
away on Monday
June 3, 2002 quietly in his sleep.
Stephen was diagnosed at the age of 2 with Congenital Heart Disease, Stroke
and a Seizure Disorder. He will always be in our thoughts and prayers
and our sincerest condolences go out to his family and friends.
On Wednesday April 17, 2002 Laura
Snyder's daughter, Hannah, passed away at the age of 3 1/2. Below is a copy
of her online journal entry. I am printing this with Laura's permission. I
know I speak for all of us when I say how very sad we are for your loss
Laura and that you and your family are in all of our prayers. Love, PSN

Hi
to all our Friends
Hannah
was admitted to the hospital on 4-17-02 to have some changes made to her
ventilator. All was going pretty well Hannah and I spent the afternoon
snuggling and reading books; it was just Hannah and me. At 10:00 on 4-17-02 Hannah and I were reading a book,
one of those touch and feel books. Hannah got very blue so I called the
nurse and she came in. We started bagging (breathing for Hannah with an ambu bag) Hannah made a little sound and I leaned down
face to face with her and told her its ok mommy's here. At that time, in
that moment Hannah's heart quit beating, I felt her leave. Hannah went to
live with Jesus on 4-17-02 at 10:30 pm Hannah was born on 7-14-02 I picked
up Hannah and snuggled her. So after family and friends came to see her, I
bathed her, hand printed her, then I carried her from her hospital room
outside, I had planed to only carry her to the stretcher but when I started
carrying her I realized I have never carried my Angel Baby anywhere without
tubes and wires, so I carried her outside. The night was warm and the sky
was crystal clear all the stars were shining down on us as I laid my Angel
Baby onto the stretcher. I covered her up with her blanket, gave her a
kiss, a hug and her prayer bear. Then I said a little prayer to her we
always say this prayer we just changed it a little tonight.. Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the lord my soul
to keep Angels guard me through the night and wake me in Gods' holy light.
I thank God for allowing me to hold and love an Angel..
Thank
you for being there
Laura
Mommy to an Angel
