Thanks for writing this article. My wife and I have lost 2 children late in pregnancy. It will be of comfort to know about the support that's available.

I am very sorry about your losses. May God be with you. They are not forgotten.

Dillon, I think about you every day. You would have been 16 this year. I am grateful to you for giving up your place here on earth for our daughter. The pain never goes away. I just set it aside and try to keep going. I love you and will see you again. Dad.

I am so grateful that members of 'Share Parents of Utah' were there for me when we lost our little girl three and a half years ago. The Walk to Remember has been a wonderful healing time for our family. It's nice to go somewhere and be around others who understand the pain you feel and to know you are not alone.

I'm sorry for the parents who have lost children, but I believe this was just an advertisement for a mortuary.

We too, lost a son shortly after birth. He would be five now. People do not understand the deep grief a loss of a baby brings. SHARE has been a great help. I miss all the memories we will never make together. I miss seeing my children with their older brother. Not a day goes by that I do not think of my first son and what he would be doing. I ache for all the parents that have felt this loss, and yet many of us have never felt so close to the heavens and so blessed to have these little ones in our lives, even if it was just in the womb. Their foortprints are forever printed on our hearts. They have changed us for the better. Life is much more precious and we treasure the ones we hold dear even more. I love you Adan!

My Diego would have been 4 year now. He died when he was only threeo a bad med months old, his deathd was due tical treatment in Quito, Ecuador. We really miss him and we think about him a lot.

I wanted to give Larkin Mortuary my warmest thanks, love and appreciation. The Walk was a beautiful and a comforting experience. The people at Larkin have huge and giving hearts. This is not a ploy to sell plots. They have given a beautiful place for all of the families who have suffered greatly to gather and remember their babies. Year after year they have given to SHARE the use of their facilities, provided refreshments for the families, provided the balloons that are released for the babies lost, they print and provide for SHARE all the brochures that are given to the hospitals which give these families who have lost babies information to contact SHARE so that they can receive support and love from those who can understand their grief. If they only cared about selling plots why would they give so much so freely. Thank you Jeff, Jim, Lori and all the staff at Larkin Mortuary that helped touch so many lives.

Many Funeral Homes host Bereavement programs. This doesn't mean that they are trying to advertise a product. It means that they are offering a much needed service, and do not simply close the door on the family once the funeral and burial is over.

I wish my mother would have had a program like this when my brother died.He would have been 53 years old.I don't know how my mother survived his loss.He died in a car accident when he was 18 months old and I think if my mother would have had someone to talk to that truly understood her feelings it would have helped tremendously.All of her life she never forgot Terry and neither has our family.When people ask how many siblings I have,I always say three brothers and two sisters.Even though I am the youngest his presence has always been with our family.I'm looking forward to seeing him someday.

Thank you Larkin and SHARE. The Walk was wonderful again this year. It brings a sense of unity at a time nothing makes sense.

As for the above comment about advertising, of all the funeral homes we looked at, Larkin donated almost 100% of their services to us. I am proud to tell people my daughter is buried at Larkin.

To lose a child is the ultimate sadness. What a kind gesture for Larkin to do this. This has nothing to do with commercialism. There are truly a few people and organizations left in the world who care about peoples sorrows. That is the greatest form of charity.

My Mother in Law lost her son at age 37, my husband, but close to where his grave is, there are two infant boys who were stillborn. This is a pain that I never had to experience, but my heart goes to those who have. My hope for the fathers and mothers of these special children, is that the ache in their heart will be comforted.
