Every soul that comes into this world comes here with a very specific mission. When that mission is completed, the soul can leave. The holiest of souls need so little time here in this world that some never even make it outside the womb, others only need their heart to beat once, others not even that. Samuel' s spirit was so special, so perfect and pure, that at birth he went right into the arms of Jesus. As you grieve the loss of your precious Samuel, I am praying that God helps each of you to find peace, comfort and healing.
Love, Hugs & Prayers

Jamie, Ron and AJ:
Jamie, I work with your Aunt Linda and feel as if I have been on this whole journey with you and your family. Our prayer for your family is that God will give you peace and comfort in knowing that one day you will have a joyful family reunion with little Samuel. In the meantime, he is being held in the arms of God looking down on your precious family. May God bless you and keep you, may the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. May The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace. Blessings!

Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook his head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so".
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
