During his brief stay here with us, he gave us a lifetime of love and memories to cherish, and he surely felt the love and joy of his parents.

Daylen, I carried you every second of your life and I will love you every second of mine. -Mom

Baby boy, I’ll miss you until the day you’re in my arms again. I promise to protect and love your mom enough for the
both of us. -Dad
