IN MEMORY OF
COLLIN DIETER GERSTLAUER
born April 14, 2008 and
died May 18, 2008.
Remembered
by Leslie and Ryan Gerstlauer, John and Linda Bewley, Janet Alvis, and Klaus Gerstlauer:
Lay me down to sleep,
Let your open arms hold me as I cry.
My healing heart’s at peace,
Just hold me tight and lay me down to sleep.
For sometime now I’ve tried to fight this fight,
Holding on to you with all my loving might
But you never left me,
I could see you standing by side,
Waiting for me to rest.
Lay me down to sleep,
Let your open arms hold me as I cry.
My healing heart’s at peace,
Just hold me tight and lay me down to sleep.
You waited for me each and every day,
Wanting so much to help me along the way,
Sometimes things that happen,
are just out of our control.
Its okay just to cry.
Lay me down to sleep,
Let your open arms hold me as I cry.
My healing heart’s at peace,
Just hold me tight and lay me down to sleep.
“Lay Me Down to Sleep”
-song by Robin Patrick
On May 18th, we held our angel for the first and last time. We cried as we said good-bye to our son, a beautiful baby we hardly got the chance to know. We kissed him and told him how much he is and always will be loved, and how we watched as fought everyday to stay with us. No more pain, no more hurting, no more fighting for every breathe to live.
He was little fighter and on that day, he won his wings. There is one more angel in heaven… our angel, Collin Dieter.
