Pendant #1345 – Be Strong

May 7, 2025 | Faith, Illness, Loss, Mental Health, Other Stories, Overcoming, Redemption, Support

I recently received this necklace from a friend and coworker. I lost my 22 year old son in March. He was truly an angel from Heaven during his time here with us. He was nonverbal, but his spirit was so strong that everyone who met him tells of the inspiration they felt just by being in his presence. I miss him so much and still cry every day. I am grateful he is no longer in pain and that he is running free with God, but I wish with my whole heart that I had more time with him here. Every day feels empty, like my heart is missing, and I can barely breathe.

This pendant reminds me that I need to be strong for my family. It reminds me that Conner is in my heart and that I want to be a person that makes him proud. I want to spread kindness and joy like he did. I want to honor his memory in every way.
