Dear Peter,Jennifer and family I thought that times like these are so gut wrenching that no matter what is said in condolence, is welcomed but difficult to accept----Unless we keepthe faith of Believing---that some times we arenot meant to know at this tender age death comes .My sister , Mary, went through this many years ago and at that time I experianced and I saw the Peace and Love carry her as the story of foot steps in the sand when Jesus carried the person walking through difficult time .Now in the arms of Jesus ,an angel a spirit to someday welcome us home when our time comes. May the Peace and Love of Our God the Father ,God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit keep our Faith and Belief and thankful for All Blessings to be seen and understood. ---Love you folks

My thoughts are with you Peter & the family today, as well as for the days to come. Baby Dexter will always be with you looking over you as your little angel in heaven. Take care and God bless. I found this poem online and thought of you. Good Bye It's time to say goodbye and no one will ever understand why today is the day you lay you're little man to rest everyone knows he was the best he was your miracle, your dream come true and we are here to comfort you though today you say goodbye just remember he never really dies for in your hearts his spirit lies if he could talk I know he'd say mommy daddy please don't cry for I am not gone I'm flying high I'm that brand new twinkle in the sky I know one day I'll see you again and until then hold your heads up high and just remember I'm standing by for I'm the light of the moon and the sunlight in the sky so please be strong and it won't be long till we're together again love your little man
