ELIJAH JOHN GALLEGOS "BUBBA"Arrived from Heaven on Feb. 3, 1997 Returned to Heaven on Nov. 10, 1998Son, you are the twinkle in our eyes and the beat in our heart. Eli it's been 365 days since you were pronounced an angel and it feels like just a minute ago. Our hearts will never feel the same knowing we will never be able to watch you grow. We know you are in a better place just waiting for us to meet again. Please help us to get through our lives without you. Bubba, just knowing that one day we will be able to hold you in our arms again gives us hope to live our lives forever. We love you and miss you with all our hearts souls.Remembering our Hito, ElijahGo ahead and mention Elijah, our son that died, you know, don't worry about hurting us further. The depth of our pain doesn't show. Don't worry about making us cry, we're already crying inside. Help us to heal by releasing the tears that we try to hide. We're hurting when you just keep silent, pretending he doesn't exist. We'd rather you mention Elijah, knowing that he has been missed. You asked us how are are doing, we say,"pretty good" or"fine." Our lives have changed forever and healing is something ongoing. We feel it will take a lifetime.Love, Mom, Dad, Mariah, Loryssa, grandmas & grandpas, aunties and uncles, cousins and friends
