In Loving Memory: Ryan Daniel Davis
May 20, 2005 by daddy.
I just want to take a few moments to share my heartfelt sympathy for the Davis family on the loss of Ryan Daniel Davis. Ryan was born and went home to be with his Savior on May 17, 2005. I just pray that the Lord will be with Kevin and Aline as well as the whole Davis family now to bring them comfort in this time of great loss. I worked with Kevin when he was at Sun and we developed a great friendship that has continued to grow even after I moved half way across the country.
The follwoing is the text from Kevin’s blog entry:
A Baby is born…
Hi everyone-
Ryan Daniel Davis was born as a stillborn to my wife and I on Tuesday May 17, 2005 at 5:07pm. He weighed 7lbs, 9.2oz, measured 20 inches long. Everything about Ryan is absolutely perfect in every way with one exception - he never took a breath. We spent 6 hours with our son - finding out that he has my wife’s nose and chin, my lips, my dark hair - brown with a hint of red, my hands - long fingers and lines that were exactly the same, my wife’s feet - long second toe and all.
Ryan was baptized by Father Norman of St. Mark’s Church that night. And now Ryan is with God. Brittiany will watch over Ryan, he will play with Ben and Christopher, Granddaddy Sangrey will teach him bocci, Grandfather Davis will make sure his hair is trimmed, Grandmother and Grandfather Austin will make sure he knows how to fish and cook the meal. We are at peace knowing that Ryan is now with God.
But Jesus called them unto Him, and said, ‘Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them, for of such is the kingdom of God.’
Luke 16:18We have our pictures of Ryan, we have a blanket that smells like a baby boy. We have a bear which we named King to help us remember to hug and hold our baby.
I must say one more thing - I am so proud of my wife! She was in labor for 12 hours and laboring (pushing) for 3 hours. She was simply awesome. And I love her so much - words can not even begin to explain.
And now we need to plan a funeral. We know that he will be buried in town so Ryan will be close to us - within walking distance. We know that the funeral will be on the 28th of May.
The entire Lacher Family extend our heartfelt sympathy and prayers for Kevin, Aline, and Ryan. We are all praying for your strength and healing and are looking forward to the day that we can meet Ryan in heaven.
Love,
Dan, Erin, and Emily
