Lives, though short, remembered

On Wednesday, a small group gathered at Riverview Cemetery outside of Monticello to remember those who passed before them.

But rather than grandparents or parents who lived full lives, those remembered were babies lost to miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal death, and children lost too soon.


Oct. 15 was National Day of Remembrance, and mothers, fathers, siblings and friends honored the day by joining in a candle lighting ceremony that evening.

A Web site, www.october15th.com/waveoflight.htm, is set up to bring recognition to the Day of Remembrance and the grief shared by parents.
