Tiffany and Sue
Letting you know you are in our thoughts and will never be forgotten .Many of us has loved ones who left us way to early. But I'm thankful for the stars above because each night as I look at those stars looking down on us it gives me comfort and strength to go on ,they remind me of a song,a special book or toy or all the special times and things we did together. One of those stars is your little angel looking down on you saying its ok mommy I'm with Jesus now but will be together again.i love you mommies .
Wishing you both PEACE and UNDERSTAND ING this Christmas Season with love Mertes Family. Xoxo

Dear Tif and Sue
I am at lost for words,I'm speechless as I'm sure you are also. Abby was loved by many and will truly be missed. As for both of you Abby had the best loving parents,you gave that little girl the world in such a short time,every moment was met with love her eyes lit up like diamonds when you would come through the door.the legacy she leaves us here. On earth,that precious smile and loving personality was because of the love from you. She is with Jesus now but will remain in your hearts forever her memories will last a life time for all who knew her. May God give you rest,peace and understanding your strength to get through this will come from him. Rest in peace Abby I love you. I planted a rose bush in my memory garden for you.

Tiff and Sue,
I wanted to do something to honor Abby and possibly prevent this from happening to another parent so I have made a donation on her behalf to safekids.org, an organization that helps get the word out as well as does research on accidental child death and how to prevent it, including this.... I know this will not bring her back, I wish more than anything it would.
