Page, Desmond Robert
July 1, 1997 - September 21, 2001
God needed a special angel today...An open heart to guide the way. A child’s smile, so shining and bright...To lead so many into the light. A little boy’s laugh bubbling on air...To deafen the noise of hate and terror. A child’s eyes, so full of innocence...To show the path through prejudice and ignorance. A little boy’s spirit brave and fearless...To ease the way through pain and distress. A child’s touch so soft and warm...To comfort us, and keep us safe from harm. God needed a special angel today...A voice in the dark to lead the way. A little boy’s voice strong and free...“Hey everybody – follow me!”
