Dasean Micole Christophel

In loving memory of DaSean, dear child, Whose heart was filled with joy, his spirit wild. He loved his mom, and his dads, sisters and younger brother.

From the very start, we faced the unknown, His condition revealed, our hearts were sown.
But through it all, he wore a gentle grace, A smile on his face, love etched on his trace.

For eight long years, a show brought him delight, Oscar Oasis, shining in his sight.

He'd fake a fit, just to see it play, Yearning for someone to put it on display.
No noise, no chatter, interrupt his screen, For his beloved show, he'd wear a stern mien.

His favorite color, vibrant orange glowed, A hue that matched his spirit, brightly showed.
Our gifted baby, DaSean's precious name, Though fleeting, in our hearts, he'll remain.

Desean had a chair that he was working on at school to become mobile, he talked to his mother for the first time with the commutation device the first words he used was "take a bath " he had a sense of humor.

His time with us, though short, was filled with love, A cherished gift, now he rests above.
For every smile he shared, our hearts do weep, In memories we hold, eternal love, deep.
