A Celebration of Gabriel John

K and I believe that Gabriel's life began the moment he was conceived. It was then he took his place in our family and so we would like today to be a celebration of his life. He was our son and we are very proud of him.

We would like you to know that he was four pounds twelve ounces and eighteen and a half inches long. He had lots of dark brown hair and eyes that would have turned brown. He had a cleft in his chin and the most perfect fingers and toes. He would have looked like me.

We are very grateful for everyone who was with us when we lost him and for all your thoughts and prayers. We know our strength in the weeks and months that follow will come from our faith and our family and friends.

We invite everyone to join us at our home for lunch following the graveside services today.
