I don't think I can ever forget the extreme joy that Tammie had for being blessed as Soledad's mother. On our adoption group, Soledad was often a topic of funny antics, stories, and much love from her mother. She always wanted the best for her little Princess.

J Jamie & Brad Schneidewend on Mar 7, 2013

CandleMy heart goes out to the ones that Soledad left behind as she went to take her place with the Lord in heaven. May she rest in peace as God's newest little angel. She joined the ranks of heaven with my Aunt Barb, Uncle Jim, and my niece Sereena. I am so sorry for your loss.

R REV. CHARLES DAILY on Mar 6, 2013

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU, LITTLE ANGEL, BUT YOUR PICTURES SHOW ME YOU WERE LOVED AND FULL OF LIFE.
I KNEW THE COUPLE AND FAMILY WHO WERE IN THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED. I CAN SAY THAT THEY WERE LOVING AND GOOD PEOPLE, FRIENDS OF MINE, AND MEMBERS OF MY CONGREGATION IN SHAWANO. THEY WOULD GIVE THEIR VERY LIVES TO PROTECT YOU BUT HAD NO WARNING ABOUT WHAT WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN TO THEM AND YOU.
I PRAY THAT YOUR LOVING FAMILY MAY FIND THE SPIRITUAL STRENGTH TO ENDURE THIS LOSS AND THE PAIN THAT YOUR ABSENCE BRINGS.
MAY GOD'S PEACE REMAIN WITH THEM.

"I'll lend you for a while a child of mine," He said.

"For you to love the while he lives and mourn for when he's dead.

It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three,

But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me?

He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and should his stay be brief,

You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief."
"I cannot promise he will stay; since all from earth return,

But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.

I've looked the wide world over in My search for teachers true

And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes I have chosen you.

Now will you give him all your love, not think the labor vain,

Nor hate Me when I come to call to take him back again?"
"I fancied that I heard them say, "Dear Lord, Thy will be done!

For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we run.

We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we may,

And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay;

But should the angels call for him much sooner than we've planned,

We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand!"

This helped me when I kept asking GOD why he took my 15 year old daughter in Auto accident Samantha May Zima 09/20/1982--05/28/1998
this helped me and came at a time I so needed an answer from God I sure hope this helps you also... Know she is always with you talk to her often and watch for pennies from heaven she may send to let you know she is thinking of you always too...... From another mom that knows this pain all to well. Please keep my email and if you ever need to talk to someone I will be here... May God carry until your strong enough to go ahead on the path of grief. God bless and be with you and your family in these tough time. Jan mom to Samantha May forever 15......
