This memorial website was created in the memory of our son, Joshuah Daniel Neubauer who was born on October 13, 2000 and entered Heaven's gates December 8, 2000. We will remember him forever.
Bereaved Birthdays
Birthdays are a time for celebration Not a time for tears But what happens when the birthdays No longer mark the years A birthday marks the moment A spirit enters earthly life To share its special love and joy And learn from earthly strife Before a spirit comes to us, It knows when and how it must depart It chose its path carefully, We are honored from the start The sadness we now feel on such a joyous day Is longing for our loved one's touch It's natural to feel this way For even though the birthdays No longer mark a spirit's stay Love continues on forever To touch us everyday I hug my precious memories Close to my heart And honor my beloved spirit child Who chose me from the start (unknown)
I Will Carry You
Angie Smith
There were photographs I wanted to take Things I wanted to show you Sing sweet lullabies, wipe your teary eyes Who could love you like this?
People say that I am brave, but I'm not truth is I'm barely hanging on But there's a greater story Written long before me Because He loves you like this
So I will carry you While your heart beats here Long beyond the empty cradle Through the coming years I will carry you All my life And I will praise the One Who's chosen me To carry you
Such a short time Such a long road All this madness But I know That the silence Has brought me to His voice And He says...
I've shown his photographs of time beginning Walked him through the parted seas Angel lullabies, no more teary eyes Who could love him like this?
I will carry you While your heart beats here Long beyond the empty cradle Through the coming years I will carry you All your life And I will praise the One Who's chosen Me To carry you

Please God, make them remember that Today is a special, birthday. Make them understand that The memories don't go away. Bless them, with ears to hear and hearts that care. Enable them to listen while I share. Shelter them that they may never know my pain. Help them to help me know that my child's life was not in vain. Help them to remember, Lord that I wish That my child was here So we could still celebrate. To understand that I still Feel the nearness of my child. To see beyond my smile and the Words, "I'm okay." Please God, just let one remember today Is a special birthday!
Laying there on the floor unaware of what's to come That soon God would open his doors And welcome you to his kingdom If I could see you one last time Laying there on the floor I’d pick you up and hold you once more I’d tell you that I love you And that I’d miss you bunches But til the day arrives When I will see you with my eyes And hold you again I’ll hold you where you’ve always been and that is in my heart.

My Sweet Boy …
I remember the day that I first learned of you I quickly noted of when you'd be due I was nervous and scared - could this really be? When years come to pass, what would you think of me The next nine months were all but a rush Your brand new life was in my hands to trust
You would look at me with such innocent eyes Now, only my memories hold the sound of your sighs Your life here on earth was so short, but sweet Not an enemy or danger you will ever meet
I pray at night that it was nothing I did That took your life---they called it SIDS It is hard to accept and just stand by The questions I have of HOW and WHY? For every day that passes, my heart aches Reluctant I am… a new life I must make
So now that you play in Heaven above Please remember your mommy's eternal love Remember my kisses, I'll see you again I'll love you forever, my sweet boy.

Balloons By Candy Roe
They rise up in a loud whisper to greet the sky And everyone looks who passes by. They are unaware Of the hope, dreams, love, and despair That are held within each balloon floating here in the air. They go drifting right along catching your eye And those bright colors how they dress up the sky. They float about freely with gentleness and ease Up and down they move catching the breeze. It's an overwhelming sight to see those colorful balloons Filled with our hopes and dreams are¦ Especially for me.


As we cling to the dreams we had for our precious Joshuah - dreams like those of any new parent - we also cherish the memories of our brief time together, knowing they must now fill a lifetime. We will forever be grateful for your support and understanding as we move forward - always loving, never forgetting.

Please feel free to write a tribute or light a candle! It would mean so much to us to know that you were here.
