Conner Evan Olsen



To Our Son…

 Born to soon at 28 weeks

Your heart too tired and no longer beats

You entered this world so silent & still

 

How beautiful you looked

Blond hair, blue eyes

Ten little toes and fingers too

2lbs 5oz, so tiny

 

You returned home too soon

Mommy and Daddy wanted to keep you

God needed you back

We had to let you go

 

Conner, our first-born son

You have a place in our hearts always

You are missed and never forgotten

We rejoice in knowing we will see you in Heaven

 Conner Even Olsen

Chris and Jeannette,

That was a beautiful poem written for your son. My eyes were brimming with tears as I read it. Thank you for sharing, especially on a day that I am sure is very tender for you.

Love you, and the children you have on this earth.

What a beautiful poem Jeannette. I got your message and I'm glad that you got my phone number. I'm sorry I haven't called yet. For some reason every time I get a mind to sit down and have a conversation Jacob wakes up or needs something. I would love to get together and promise to call soon so we can work something out. Cameron is adorable with his blonde curly hair and it looks like your doubly blessed with your sweet little girl. We have a site too. Check it out. Love ya.
