Sierra Gabrielle

Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome


Sierra peacefully sleeping
I found out that I was pregnant with my beautiful little girl on March 26, 2004. I recall the nurses asking me if I was happy about being pregnant because I cried as soon as I heard the news. Of course I was happy! I was ecstatic! When I informed Mike, Sierra's daddy, of the news he was equally ecstatic. We were happy parents-to-be.

This memorial will serve as a reminder of the joy she has brought her family. Sierra Gabrielle who was born in Dallas, Texas on November 09, 2004 at 2:50 pm and passed away at 1:50 pm on November 28, 2004, will be remembered with love forever.

She was here on earth, however brief her stay, she was loved and will never be forgotten.

— Rebecca, Sierra's Mom, and brother Jude Andrew (West Texas)
