Savannah Jolynne Dodson

Our Little Sunshine..Savannah Jolynne Dodson was stillborn on 1/23/2008 due to a genetic disease
called ARPKD or Infantile Poly Cystic Kidney Disease. This disease made her kidneys take up 70% of
her body and left no room for her lungs to grow. We know that the good Lord must have a special need
for Savannah up in Heaven but she took a piece of everyone's heart when she left. Savannah is with
all 6 of her brothers in sisters in Heaven since they all left too soon due to miscarriages. We know
that all our babies are playing together. Savannah mommy and daddy miss you more each day. We would
give anything to have you back in our arms. The day you were born our lives changed forever. We love
you our little angel baby. We can't wait for the day when we will see you again but until then
Savannah please send mommy and daddy a little sigh so we know you are still with us each day

****When God calls little children to dwell with him above we mortals sometimes question the wisdom
of his love. For no heartache compares with the death of one small child Who does so much to make
our world seem wonderful and mild. Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold, so he picks a
rosebud before it can grow old. God knows how much we need them and so he only takes a few, to make
the land of heaven more beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows will always be “ Good-bye”. So when a little child departs we who
are left behind, must realize God loves children but Angel are hard to find……




“I’ll Never”

I can’t tell you how I’m feeling
The words are so hard to find
Thinking of all that could have been
But “I’ll never” comes to mind
I’ll never feel your hug
I’ll never dry your tears
I’ll never hear you laugh
Or watch you through the years
I’ll never brush your hair
I’ll never touch your face
I’ll never hold you tight
When things don’t go your way
I’ll never hold your hand
I’ll never watch you sleep
I’ll never have your pictures
Forever mine to keep
I’ll never hear you cry
I’ll never watch you play
I’ll never kiss your "owie"
And make it go away
I’ll never see you smile
I’ll never have a choice
I’ll never hear I love you
In my daughters voice
I’ll never know your smell
I’ll never feel your love
I’ll never stop hurting
When you’re all I think of
You were taken away so suddenly
Although pain is nothing new
I’ll always have endless “I’ll never’s”
When it comes to you.
