For our angel friends whose lives were cut too short and their families.....
We have been at the Ronald McDonald House a long time and have met some great friends. Many kids barely hanging onto life were saved. Unfortunately, several of our friends went to heaven and we miss them very much. I want to dedicate this to Ayanna, Brittany, Gabriel and their families.
Your angels will be with you forever - watching you and waiting for you to join them. Your life is richer for having them in your life, even if it was just for a little while. Ayana, Gabriel and Brittany are free, angels of love, watching over you forever. I know that my words can not ease your pain. It is not fair. I will always continue to pray for Ayanna, Brittany and Gabriel.
Following is a poem a friend sent to me last year. I know that your angels are watching over you and one day you will be reunited.

Heaven is great.
Just like you said,
There's not much longer to wait.
I have a guardian angel who comes at night.
I told him I wanted to go,
But the times not right.
My angel came this morning.
While you were still in bed,
He came with a warning.
When I left with June.
So you could rest some more,
I knew my time was soon.
When you were finally out of sight,
I told my angel,
The time is just right.
When you still didn't know I was gone,
My angel put his hand in mine,
And I was no longer stiff or sick,I felt so happy & fine.
When the hospital called,I saw you crying from above.
I saw daddy & how scared he was,
And I knew how much I was loved.
On the way to the hospital I heard you pray,
Don't let them bring me back,
I know you don't want God to take me away.
I saw you walk into the ER,and ask is he gone.
I saw the look on your face when the nurse said yes!
It looked like you'd never go on.
I seen you holding me tight.
I kissed you good-bye with my love,
And tried to tell you I was alright.
There's no more pain,
You can go on with your life,
And not feel so drained.
I'll watch you all your days through.
And be like your guardian angel,
Just because, I LOVE YOU!!
