Two years ago this December my friends Marisa and Brandon welcomed a small miracle into their family. Marisa found out early in her pregnancy that baby Taylor had a pretty significant heart defect. Brandon and Marisa named him Gabriel which means strong man of God and he has lived up to his name from day one. Just days after he was born he had the first of three surgeries to repair his heart. Gabe has been a fighter and has done better than any of us could have imagined. Gabe's last surgery would have to be done once he turned three. Sadly, Gabe passed away this morning. He went into cardiac arrest suddenly and unexpectedly while at home with his daddy. Gabe was a precious gift to our family for the two years we got to have him!
Please keep Brandon, Marisa and his little sister, Allie as well as the rest of their extended family and friends in your prayers. I cannot even begin to imagine the pain and the loss they are experiencing right now.

I'm so sorry to hear that! How awful! I can't even begin to imagine what they are going through right now. I will certainly keep them in my prayers through this holiday season.
