The story of our precious little girl's 17 months of life with Trisomy 18 (July 4, 2010 - December 15, 2011) and of us, re-learning to live "after Lilly."
"I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made ...." Psalm 139:14

Lilly's Pop



This afternoon my father-in-law went to be with the Lord. I'm so grateful we got to see him on July 4 - Lilly's 1st birthday - and that he still was able to smile at her then. Pop was a good man and will be greatly missed.


"The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD." - Job 1:21

    So sorry for your loss. I'm sure your family blessed him richly and he was proud of his son's love of Jesus and your family's desire to serve Him.

    We are never ready to say goodbye to those we love so much; even when we know they are going HOME - where our heavenly Father has prepared a place for us! May you find comfort in the Lord's promises! Holding you in our thoughts and prayers!!
    love -

    In this photo i see the circle of life: the one that has just begun and the one thats ready for the Big Journey. There is no live without a New Beginning. There is no dead because there will always be a New Beginning and in time we will see our loved ones again.

    Thinking of you.

    I LOVE this picture! How Blessed Lilly is to have it for her memory book. What a beautiful man. Even as close to death as he was in this picture,
    you can see the beauty and peace in his soul.

    God bless the family.
