From the day of your birth,
You had a special purpose here on earth.
Although you only lived three short years,
Your death still brings forth tears.

We only met for two short weeks,
But I still remember your rosy cheeks.
You had so much fun,
Playing ball in the sun.

That all changed that December day,
When God called you away.
Even with the passing of time,
You are still on our minds.

As part of your family, we can only pray,
That we will be together someday.
You are my Guardian Angel from above,
And to you, Christopher, I send my love.

Watching over me everyday,
I feel your presense in a special way.
God put you where he wants you to be,
Please,Christopher, continue to watch over me.


Cathy Bohannan


Poem was written in loving memory of nephew.

Cathy....
        
            This is so beautiful.....
    You have such a caring, tender heart!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!

Cathy- I know he is and so do you.  This is by far our greatest family woe and you have honored him well.  Thank you for your loving heart.  Love you much.

Oh, Cathy~
When you kiss an angel ...
an angel kisses you !

You've been kissed !

Thank you for sharing the tenderness
of Christopher.

Thank to all that replied, Christopher is
indeed an Angel that is looking down on all
of us and I  know that he sends down his
special angel love to everyone. If you had
met him all of you would have fell in love
with him.
