LILLIAN SOPHIA BAYANI Dearest Lilly, please know that our greatest blessing was having you. It is with great sadness that on Monday, August 31, 2009 our daughter, Lillian Sophia Bayani was born still into this world at 6 pounds 7 ounces, 19 inches long. Lilly is deeply loved by her mommy Erin and daddy Rodney, grandparents, Elaine, Paul, Lorna and Rod; great- grandparents, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and many others. Lilly will always be our precious little princess. She will remain deep within our hearts until that day in heaven when we can hold her again and see her beautiful face smiling back at us. Lillian's funeral service will be held in her memory on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 at 1:00 p.m., in the Chapel of Memories in Wojcik's Funeral Chapel, 1020 Main Street at Manitoba Avenue in Winnipeg, Manitoba. We would like to thank our wonderful caregivers; our doula Angela, our chiropractor Danella, and our midwives Toni, Lisa, and Gisele. Thank you all for the support and encouragement you have shown us through our pregnancy, birth and our time of loss. We could not have done this without you all. Flowers gratefully declined. For those who wish donations can be made in Lilly's memory to The Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation. www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org Tiny Angel by Unknown Tiny Angels rest your wings sit with me for awhile. How I long to hold your hand, And see your tender smile. Tiny Angel, look at me, I want this image clear.... That I will forget your precious face Is my biggest fear. Tiny Angel can you tell me, Why you have gone away? You weren't here for very long.... Why is it, you couldn't stay? Tiny Angel shook her head, These things I do not know.... But I do know that you love me, And that I love you so .
