I have been thinking about you and Matthew a lot this past week as on October 29th our friends lost their 3 month old baby girl Nichole to SIDS. Seeing the toll that this loss has taken on them is devastating.
I just tell you again how wonderful it is to have a place like this site where you can write to Matthew and just honor him. We continue to pray always for your family and that people who see this site can see that God is always there through every step of the way and although we wonder why we cannot question his plan. Sometimes I think God is lucky enough to pick his angels that surround him and he takes the perfect ones earlier than others.
Sending our love -Debbie Wax, bhp/datsdwax Nov 14 2008 From one mother who has lost a son, to another! I honor my son every day with his my memories of him; as you do for Matthew. I am so thankful to Melanie for introducing me to this website! My son would have just turned four. Time does not heal this pain, and i am far from an understanding of the answer to all the "why's". Share his story, help his memory stay alive! **in memory of our boys, maybe they have met in heaven** -Lauren Gates Nov 12 2008 matthew, we miss you and love you with all our hearts. this is for you.
a special boy came our way and bloomed but for the shortest stay he spreads his wings in heavens skies our little daredevil will soar so high
Can't you feel him as he stirs up the wind he's making it blow fast across your skin do you see him in the leaves he scatters having a ball thats all that matters
Matthew our darling little one Keep on playing and having fun Know that our hearts love you much And all our lives you have touched.

My 2 1/2 year old grandson and I were out gardening in our front yard at the end of August, when we found a baloon with blue and white decorations. It had a beautiful note for Matthew from his Aunt Sammie.
I was very touched and just wanted to let you know your website for Matthew is just as special as what we found under our big peaceful tree. Peace to you. -Annette Skinner and Joshua Eichman Nov 10 2008 Wow. Now I see hoe hard it is to lose a child to SIDS.
-Bridget O'Connor bhp/oconnortwins Nov 08 2008 Hi Matthew. -Marilyn and Alexis Nov 03 2008 Hi Miller Family,
We are keeping you in our prayers as we know that despite a years passing this journey of healing is a long road with ups and downs. Matthew is surely so proud of his big sister and so thankful for his Mommy and Daddy working so hard to keep his gravesite so nice and kept. It looks like a really peaceful place to remember his sweetness.
So our continued thoughts and prayers.. we think of you all often. -Sending our love, The Wax Family, bhp/datsdwax Oct 21 2008 Hi Denise, You did a wonderful job on Matthew's grave site.

One year ago we received the news of your passing and we were in shock. Many moms rushed to hug their little ones tighter.
We come by often and watch your memories live on in Mommy, Daddy and Kaitlyn. One year later we are touched by their love for you and want you to know that whilst we never "met you" we think of you often.
Denise, Dustin and Kaitlyn, know that your family is in our thoughts and we pray that the Lord wraps you all just a little tighter in his love today and always.
Matthew, keep smiling over Mommy and Daddy and Kaitlyn and know that your BHP family misses seeing what a little number you would have been. -The Singh Family-/bhp/ahrenjudekarransingh Oct 15 2008 Dear Miller Family, I still recall the shock I felt when I went to your website one year ago, and the pain I felt for your family. I have been praying for you, and I hope that today can be a day of remembering the wonderful times with Matthew without too much sadness. Just remember that this life is but a vapor, and he has the perfect parent imaginable taking care of him at every moment in heaven...JESUS!!!
