September 29

A Family's Little Angel

On September 29, 2006, a little angel flew into our lives.

Even though we weren't able to see her breathe or hear her cries.

Her name is Halle Lynn Klug of Odin, Kansas.

Her mother is Kiley.

Her father is Gavin.

Such a beautiful little girl with hair already starting to curl.

We can feel your love so great with such a tiny heart.

That emotional bond which we will always be a part.

My God, how could you put these young parents in such despair?

Yes, You are a just God, but for Your reason, not always fair.

By taking Halle, You have committed this family to enormous grief.

Please, please, please Lord by Your great love, give us some relief.

Halle, we will dream of summers with Mommy and softball.

And yes, hunting with Daddy's little girl in the fall.

So, Halle, on this Feast of Guardian Angels, protect your family.

The Lord gave you wings before you could even say hello.

Console us as you rest with peace on Jesus' pillow.

(poem from Grandpa read at memorial service)

Halle, we love you and miss you every day
