Kayden made an imprint in this world and in our hearts with his little feet, one that we will never forget.

A life inside me, a love so strong.

He died inside me, but the love lives on.

It broke my heart for him to go,

I love him, I need him like he’ll never know.

I only held him, not heard his cry,

I wasn’t ready to say goodbye.

Private graveside services were held.

Arrangements entrusted to Gottenstroeter Funeral Home, Owensville.
