We lost our little man last Wednsday he would have been 5 on October 5th.   He had so much hope dreams and many goals.  He was the sunshine of our life, he loved music, dancing and wanted to have his own construction company, he loved tractors and cats, back hoes and knew all their names.   He loved cookies and was waiting for dancing with the stars to come back on this fall,  His favorite show.   He dreamed of being like Derek Hough and dance with his sister someday.  

Why am I here because I have to let you know it hurts, and I don't understand this.  He was climbing on the truck of firewood,  his daddy was getting firewood, he climbed out the cab window onto the side wood rack and he fell.  He broke his neck a blood vessel ruptured in his brain and he died instantly.  They took him to the hospital but he was gone, they tried for 2 hours to bring him back.  But could not.   He has 4 sisters, Halona is 6 she is really really really hurting she wants to know if Gerrin can hear her now where he is with God.   What do I tell her.   His sister Alzera is 8 she was his playmate with trucks and tractors and outside things.    She said who will play with me now.  Tamzi doesn't know what to do her little sweet brother who loved her chocolate chip cookies won't ask for her or I to make any.

He loved chocolate chip cookies.  I just got some chocolate chips to make for him  he was supposed to come over tonight and we were going to make cookies tomorrow.   I got the piano tuned and he was looking forward to  learning play the piano.  He loved the piano.    I don't know what to Say.  Our grandson our little man is gone.   Why is he gone.  I don't want him gone this is way way way way way too much.  I don't know what to say or do.   I don't know what to think.  I am not able to cry but I cry inside.  

I just wanted to let you know why.   I won't be on here for awhile maybe days, or weeks or months or never I don't know.   That is wrong, wrong, wrong.     I am mad, hurt, sad. I am nothing.   This should never be.   It just should NOT ever be.      Lester and Amaryah LaFleur,  P.O. Box 532, Mead, Wa.  99021,  AJ and Jen Donier,  P.O. Box 1029, Mead,  WA.  99021.

Gerrin was leading him to God.  Gerrin was a huge factor in my husband's family seeing miracles because of his gentleness he was helping a cousin learn to talk who has autism.  He was teaching his little brother how to love and pray and his father as well.  He was helping his sister Halona to pray more.  

Gerrin believed in God and miracles and prayer , he saw things happen when he prayed like when they lost their tortorise and it came back after two weeks of being missing .  His favorite hymn is Amazing Grace and Somebody Touched the Lord also God is Able, they will be sung today at his Celebration of Life services.   He is a member of the Chuch of God 7th Day as we are and he was dedicated to God at his birth.  He has a life ahead it has just been postphoned for awhile,  His little sweet and gentle spirit is in the arms of our Lord Jesus.   

I was asked to tell people who have asked how they can help my daughter and her family at the tragic loss of her four year old Son Gerrin this past Wednesday when he fell to his death from climbing up onto a pick up truck rack, something he had done countless times, but  he fell wrong this time and he hit wrong and it caused his death. Three of his sisters ages 6, 8 and 10 saw him die.  His oldest sister age 12 and baby brother were at the house with mama.  

A fund has been set up to help the family with bearevement counseling and funeral expenses as neither parent has a job at the moment and live on less than $1000 per month.   at the US bank in Spokane The Gerrin La Fleur Memorial  Fund. To help the family.

Aside from praying some have asked if they can help or donate something or send cards and letters to the family.    We especially appreciate the prayers as they are getting us through.    We are coping minute by minute, hour by hour and day by day.

For those who want to send cards or letters you can write to them at  Lester and Amaryah La Fleur P.O. Box 532, Mead, WA.  99021  or to my husband and I at AJ and Jen Donier P.O. Box 1029,  Mead,  WA.

additonally I have created a Facebook group at the suggestion of some friends  here is the url for anyone who wants to contribute, or read his story I will be posting from time to time with pictures ( this is my way of coping between the tears and anger and managing the family needs)
