The hope and love we felt
Transcends mere existence on earth
As we awaited the life of an infant
But there was only silence at the time of your birth.
Quietly you returned to your Creator
And will eternally watch us from above
Somehow knowing you're thought of
And were conceived and remembered, with love
Good night Sweet Devin,
Love, your Aunt Julie.
To our angel, Devin,
in loving memory, Mommy and Daddy. . .If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven to bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken, no time to say goodbye, You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why. My heart still aches in sadness and secret tears still flow, What it meant to lose you - no one will ever know... --Anonymous
This page is dedicated to my nephew, Devin Allan Chase. He was born and died on January 12, 1999. In her eight month of pregnancy, my sister lost her child by some unknown cause. Devin is the son of Angelique Marie and Bruce Allan Chase. He was their first child, and will forever be remembered. I pray that his memory will never fade. In memory of Devin, Angel and I wear Guardian Angel pins on our shirts everyday. In a small way, it helps me feel closer to Devin, knowing that someday I will hear him call me his Aunt Julie.
As I promised before, I have created a link to my portfolio where pictures of Devin can be viewed. I hope you all have an opportunity to look at them. Devin was and always will be a beautiful baby boy. View Devin's Pictures I thank you all for taking the time to visit this site. Feel free to tell others about this page, and have a wonderful day. Our Angels are looking down on us from Heaven. I'd like to close with a quote from a song entitled "Angel""In the arms of the Angel, fly away from here, from this dark cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you feel... In the arms of the Angel, may you find some comfort here." Devin, may you always know that you are loved. Julie Ann Smith
"If I could tell the world just one thing it would be, we're all okay. And not to worry cause worry is wasteful and useless in times like these. I won't be made useless, I won't be idle with despair, Wrap myself around my faith cause light does the darkness most fear. My hands are small I know, but they're not yours they are my own, but they're not yours they are my own, and I am never broken..."
--Jewel, Hands
This one is from Angel and Bruce:
"I never thought your love could feel like this, you changed my world with just one kiss. How can it be that right here with me, there's an Angel, it's a miracle...
Your love is like a river, peacful and deep. Your soul is like a secret that I never could keep. When I look into your eyes I know that it's true, God must have spent, a little more time on You."--En Sync, God Must Have Spent a Little More Time On You
