Missing you more and more as the days go by. Only God can fill the void that you left in my life. I know you are up there playing with the angels looking down on us smiling with that beautiful smile I'll never forget. I wouldn't want you in a more beautiful place than you are now. Mommy love you Baleigh.

Our time here will only be defined by the legacy we leave behind. In your short time here, you've inspired everyone you've encountered to be better versions of themselves. Your presence will be missed just as much as it was demanded. Rest Easy Baleigh

No one knows why bad things happen to those so innocent and whose life has hardly begun. For now it will have to remain the painful mystery that it is. Losses like this can make us challenge our faith. However, this is precisely the time when our faith needs to be its strongest.
I am praying that your faith will help you through this very difficult time. I pray that you will find the strength to get you through your grief and sadness.

Love you guys
