Emily and Nate, It was a privelege to get to hold Rowan in the church nursery on Sunday. He was so beautiful and sweet and it felt like he was trying to smile at me. I can't even imagine the pain you are going through. I am praying for you. I don't know your family as well as I would like, but I sure have enjoyed the time I've gotten to talk to you. Love, Sarah

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your beautiful family. We will never understand why God allows such sadness to come into our lives, but his word says: "For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. . . . God chose the weak things of this world to shame the strong. . . . so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on God's power." I believe that the joy Rowan brought to each of you through his life will forever supercede the sadness you feel today in his loss. Rowan is loved, and will eternally be loved. God Bless.

To Rowan's Family, What a sweet face Rowan has. Although we have never met, I want you to know that even before Rowan was born, prayers were coming to your family from Howell, MI. I'm so sorry to hear that you have lost your son. May God's love surround you and your family at this difficult time. I pray that baby Rowan is home with his heavenly father and someday you will be with him again. Hugs to all of you. I wish I could do it in person. From the Richardson family in Howell, MI.

Nate and Emily, I was so very sorry to read of the passing of your little boy. Surely the loss of such sweet innocent souls must have a very profound purpose in God's plan, as it seems so unfair. Please accept my very heartfelt condolences to you and your families and my prayers are with you all.

My deepest sympathy to the family. Loosing a loved one is always difficult even more so when they are very young. Take heart in knowing that every once in a while God shares an angle with us on earth, and I know Rowan brought great joy to those he touched before he returned to heaven.

Nate and Emily, We are so honored to have our daughter, Aderah, buried next to your beautiful son, Rowan. We are so sorry for your loss and we will keep you in our hearts and prayers as we know fully well how this feels. I feel that you and I are both blessed though, to have other children. My girls are such a blessing in our lives and I don't know what we'd do without them right now. Remember to kiss your other babies every chance you get as I'm sure you do. I think we both just realized how precious life really is. If you'd like to keep in touch, let me know! God bless you and your family. He is a good God. Love, Jeremy and Ani
