I don't know the family, but even so, when I saw this obituary, I couldn't just read it without leaving a note. I am truly so very sorry for your loss, may God comfort you all in what I'm sure is a very difficult time.

Domini, You are one of the best friends I will ever have in my life and I will love you forever. I am so heartbroken over your loss as it is a loss for me too. I love Dorathea and I love you. Prayers for you healing heart.

Domini, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart is breaking for you. Know that you have been in my thoughts. I want to make the hurt go away for you but I can't. We don't want to see our friends or loved ones hurt. So sorry.

Oh Domini- we are so saddened by your loss. We are thinking of you and your sweet little girl. Much love.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I couldn't wait to hold you And see your pretty face. To count your little fingers, And check your toes are in their place. It should have been the happiest day To remember all my life. But joy had turned to heartache, No breath, no beat, no life. I will never see you smile, Or hear your hearty cry. I will never be able to dry your tears, Or share your happy times. My precious little Angel, I will always know your face. In my heart and stars forever, You will always have a place.

Domini, Matthew and I are absolutely heartbroken over the lose of your Angel. I will miss you so much but glad you will be able to heal around your family who adores you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. If you come back to Nashville for a visit let us know. Blessings, Matthew, Angel, August, Kate, Myles Lamson

Domini: No words can express the pain and sorrow we all feel for the loss of your darling baby girl, Dorothea. Perhaps the following quote can give you some comfort. "Perhaps my time seemed all to brief, don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me, God wanted me now, He set me free.

There are no words Domini, but I think of you all the time, every day. You will always have this beautiful daughter, who is waiting peacefully, for you, in heaven xo.

Dearest Domini and family, I am absolutely heartbroken for your loss in the beautiful Dorathea. There is no pain as deep as losing a child. My heart aches for you and your family and I wish you strength and courage through this difficult time. My heart and prayers are with you, Sincerely, Sara

Dear Domini, My heart goes out to you and your family at this most tragic time. Dorothea was a beautiful little girl and there are no words to convey my condolences to you. I know that the love and support of your family and your friends will help you through the worst of this. I am heartbroken for you and will help in any way that you need. Just have your mom call me if there is anything that needs to be taken care of in Nashville. My son died 17 months ago so if you need to talk to someone that has experienced this, just call me. Anytime. My thoughts are with you as well as my prayers. Daryl.
