All heaven was in mourning,
The day that young man died.
When His eyes were closed in death,
Ten thousand angels cried.
 
The angels shed their many tears,
Because He was God's Son.
But there is a special sadness,
When God takes the very young.

At times like that, I question God ,
Why let a child die?
I cannot understand it,
And I need to ask Him why.
 
I, too, have heard the angels cry,
I've heard them cry first hand.
For I, too, gave up a child,
And I've tried hard to understand.
 
Yes, I received God's comfort,
Though I'm grateful, I  want more.
I want reasons; I want meaning,
I am a parent who's heart-sore.
 
God can give, and God can take,
I am well aware of this.
But, why my baby - why my child?
Why did God put him on His list?
 
Did I love my child too much?
Was he too good for this old earth?
Had his purpose here been filled?
Was that why he was taken first?
 
I awake each day with questions,
I fall asleep at night, the same.
So many times I ask God why,
I'm both saddened and ashamed
 
But then, in my reflective moments,
When my prayers are most intense.
One word keeps going through my mind,
Patience - patience - patience.
 
Maybe now is not the time,
To explain my great heartache.
Even if I knew God's reasons,
What difference would it make?
 
Can't I just be grateful,
For any time we had?
Accept God's action without question?
Why is that so very bad?
 
What's my hurry - why my pressure?
Is my faith not strong enough?
God will explain it when He's ready,
Surely I can trust that much.
 
God understands my broken heart,
He, too, gave up a Son.
He knows the pain of one lost child,
He weeps with me, and we are one.

Just as I talk to God each day,
I talk to my precious child.
I blow him kisses and I say,
"See you, honey, in a while."

 Kile Orian Hall
Died 9/27/99
Two years ago on Sept. 27, 1999, I lost my two year old son, Kile Orian Hall.  He was loved by all around him.  We all miss him so much.  He is always on my mind.  He was killed in an auto accident.  I always wondered why the children?  They have so much to learn and do.  Oh the things that I wish I could of showed him.  I miss my little line-backer.  That's my baby.  He's waiting for me to join him.  Jessie Hallie

Bradley Clifton Kennon (Brad)
Born 9-7-78 Died 2-19-99
He was a wonderful son with a smile as big as the moon, He was killed in a bad car crash 2-19-99, He couldn't wait to turn 21, but he didn't make it, a careless driver hit my son head on and took him from me. Oh, It is so hard to bare next Friday the 7th he will be 23. My Angel In Heaven, He was my sunshine, and I cry everyday for missing him. I know he is in a better place, but I cry because I am so lonely without him. We were so close, and he never had a bad thing to say about anyone. He wanted to have me all kind of Grand babies, that I will never see. Because of this driver who took things into his own hands and took my son away forever! Charlotte Kennon! Brad's Mom
