Although he was with a short time, he made a big impact in all of our lives. He loved it when his dad played music for him, He found it very soothing. He loved being talked to and hearing noises, reassuring him that mom and dad were around him when they would get busy.

We had hopes, wishes and dreams for him to be a basketball player, that he would go snow machine riding and hunting with his dad. We also wished for him to be big and protect his sisters and family, a gentle giant.
