This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Zackary David Twardowski who was born into heaven on October 18th, 2006. We will remember him forever. "And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which He hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day." JOHN 6:39

 October 17th, 2008

To the Memory-Of Community: Thank you for your continued prayers and support. You are earthly angels... with a broken wing. The beauty of imperfection takes my breath away.
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55; 8,9

Keeping your memory alive forever...
Please light a candle for our baby...
A candle to remember, may it burn ever so bright As we look to the heavens on this very night. Beyond the stars, our dear Zackary soars Embraced by his Savior on heaven's shores. As the angels protect him and sing his sweet name We honor his life with the glow of this flame. So we light this candle for our baby tonight As a symbol of our love and his eternal life.
Even angels cry.
"David noticed that his servants were whispering among themselves and he realized the child was dead. "Is the child dead?" he asked. "Yes," they replied, "he is dead."Then David got up from the ground. After he had washed, put on lotions and changed his clothes, he went into the house of the Lord and worshiped." 2 Samuel 12:19-20A
"The 'why' of so many things
Is sometimes known only to the heart of God.
But He has promised us... that at all times, in all places, and in all circumstances, nothing can separate us from His love. Author Unknown
 In my arms for the first and the last time.

Zackary was baptized by Pastor Mark Mutton and Chaplain Carl Coloney on the 18th day of October, 2006. We are forever grateful for their service. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all. Ephesians 4:5-6



THE BROKEN CHAIN
We little knew that morning that God was going to all your name,
In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

For Zackary With Love From Big Brother, Jacob
Zackary's baby brother, Jayden Daniel
"For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition which I asked of Him."1 Samuel 1:27
A FATHER'S GRIEF
It must be very difficult
To be a man in grief Since "Men don't cry" and "Men are strong" No tears can bring relief
It must be very difficult To stand up to the test And field calls and visitors So that she can get some rest
They always ask if she's alright And what shes going through But seldom take his hand and ask "My friend, how are you?"
He hears her cry in the night And thinks his heart will break He dries her tears and comforts her But "Stays strong" for her sake
It must be very difficult To start each day anew And try to be so very brave Because he lost his baby too




Zackary's big brother, Jacob and Uncle Neil.

10/24/06 How can we describe the pain of longing? It's not an illness and yet it consumes us and exhausts us, overwhelmingly both body and soul.
How can mere words describe the emptiness inside, while outside one wears a mask of acceptance? Oh fragile mask that falls away at the sound of his name...
Written By Hattie Rist (Zackary's Great Grandma)

until tonight my heart was just half full i'd never known the fruit which fed the soul but now i see what may put to rest my longing for i have seen, the face of love the grace of god, the face of love in silence i feared my heart would remain words unheard inside a separateness of skin but now i know that the skin just veils the soul for i have seen, the face of love the grace of god, the face of love so take my hand and knowing with it i also give my heart wanting never to be separate again let eternity begin if you were flame i'd allow myself to be consumed completely were you wind i would wish you pass through me but now i know that the skin just veils the soul for i have seen, the face of love the grace of god, the face of love Jewel

Zackary, your big brother loves you dearly. |

Rainbow of Hope On October 14th at 4:30 in the afternoon, my family and I were on the way to our church service when in the sky we saw a beautiful full rainbow. After Zackary's death 4 days later, it became clear to me that God had given us that rainbow to remind us that even in our darkest hours...there is hope in Him.

Zackary...too perfect for this world. A part of me died with you on that rainy day. I will never be complete until we are once again together. In my heart, my thoughts and my prayers you will always be. Thank you, dear child for touching my heart with your short but precious life. I live with the hope and faith that someday I will hold you in my arms and look into your eyes. My baby, my love, my sleeping angel...
