Funeral Notice
Death Record from Dr's office
I attended funeral

Cyndi had gone in for a routine OB appointment and the doctor couldn't hear a heart beat. She had to go through that long labor and birth knowing that Zackary would be stillborn. Up until the day before Zackary had been a very active baby. Cyndi took great care during her pregnancy and they wanted this child more than anything. I believe Cyndi had a miscarriage prior to getting pregnant with Zackary but during her other marriage. The doctors had no idea why he died.

Cyndie's mother also had a few stillborn births before Cyndi was born.

[Written on Zack's 7th birthday by his father]
Telephones in Heaven
Watching my daughter
Hard at play
on Hollowed ground
not hearing the birds or sobs
just making her own sweet sound
The fact that we were crying
did not phase her in the least
just going all directions
north, south, west, and east
What she did next
nearly put me to my knees
she needed to make a call
"could I use the phone please"
she was going to call her brother
and she wanted to call right now
"there are phones in heaven daddy
and I need to call right now"
tears came to my eyes
as I thought of all the calls I would make
my bill would not be small
I would call my grandmother's, both of them
and talk forever and a day
I don't think I could ever run out of things to say
She soon forgot about the phone
and went along her way
not realizing where we were
just wanting to run and play
She does not know
that today he would be seven
Oh god how I wish
There were phones in heaven.
