Angel Gage, World's Best Hugger

Gage Daniel Edwards
August 2,1996~June 12,2005

Gage joined the angels in Heaven after a long and hard fight with Choroid Plexus Carcinoma, a brain and spine tumor. He enjoyed a three year remission from 2001-2005 where he was given the opportunity to spread his love, happiness, kindness and hugs to everyone he met. He endured horrible chemotherapy, several surgeries, radiation and a long, long stem cell harvest and rescue. He made new friends everywhere he went. We are so grateful that we got to hold him, love him and hug him the extra 3 1/2 years that we did. He got to go to school, make new and precious friends, join boyscouts, do karate and what he liked most...give out hundreds and hundreds of hugs. We miss him and love him to infinity!!!

God saw he was getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put his arms around him
And whispered, come to Me
With tearful eyes we watched him suffer
And saw him fade away
Although we loved him dearly,
We could not make him stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes THE BEST!

You are forever on our minds and in our hearts Gage! We Love You To Infinity!

Would you like a hug? One of Gage's best sayings...he shared thousands of them!!!

"I thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday
And days before that too.
I think of you in silence
I often speak your name,
All I have are memories
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake
With which I'll never part,
God has you in His keeping
I have you in my heart."

Forever in our Hearts

A million times we needed you,
A million times we cried,
If love alone would have saved you,
You would of never died.

In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still,
In our hearts you hold a place,
No one can ever fill.

A light from our household is gone,
A voice from our love is stilled,
A place in our vacant home,
Which never can be filled.
Some may think you are forgotten,
Though on earth you are no more,
But in our memory you are with us,
As you always were before.

It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you did not go alone,
A part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.

Your precious memories are for keepsakes,
with which we never part,
God has you safely in his keeping,
But we have you forever in our hearts

Gage we miss you so, so much. Our family is definitely missing a link that can never be replaced. Thank you for being such an awesome child, brother and friend. Your kindness, love and laughter will fill our hearts forever. We love you and miss you to infinity!!!!Great big hugs and kisses!
