    Our angel, Mckenzie continues to bless and watch over us every day. We know that McKenzie's special touch played a role in us having a baby boy and in his arrival on Tuesday, October 6th. She loved her boys and always talked about having a brother. Cooper Jeffrey Walt was born on Tuesday by Emergency C Section. The nurses and doctors at the hospital did an amazing job, with the help of our angel!! Cooper had the cord wrapped around his neck 3 times and in a knot!! The cord was also coming out before him. He is doing great and mom is as well. The nurse said he definetely had an angel on his side through the pregnancy and birth. We know that is true!! Cooper was 9.6 lbs and 21 inches.
    We miss McKenzie very much, but with miracles like Cooper we know that she is right here with us...
    This website will continue on in McKenzie's memory and Dave, Danielle, Zoe and Cooper's lives.

    Hi Kenzie,
    Well it's Easter today. Sissy found her easter basket. She also went outside and found her eggs which led to a suprise. She loved it. We miss you and wish you could have been here. But we know that you are helping all the other children find their easter eggs all over the world. We love you! I bet you look beautiful today. I wonder what color dress your wearing. Wait let mommy guess... Green. No... Rainbow. Thank you for the beautiful rainbow you gave us the other day. It was awesome. It went from one side of the sky to the other. We know you painted that just for us. We love you baby girl... Mommy, Daddy and Zoe.

    Rhonda Maloney:  I am hoping for today you see brightness and joy. I am sure this journey you are on is so hard as every day your beautiful daughter is missed. So for today, I wish you a wonderful memory which creates a smile to your face.

    Kenzie,
    Good morning sunshine. We love you.

    I have to tell you that Zoe always looks at the beautiful colors you send her in the sky. She really loves to look at the sunrises and sunsets. She always says to me, "Look Mom, the sky is pink..." I tell her that Kenzie made the sky that color for us to enjoy. She misses you. She wants to come and get you and bring you home. We tell her that you can dance, run and eat all the time. Nothing is holding you back anymore.You are not in any pain. You are happy there and We need her to stay here with mommy and daddy. She just giggles and says "I love her".

    Someone gave me a butterfly yesterday. You would love it. I am going to hang it in our house. It is so beautiful..

    I miss you girl. Love Mom

    jenni loshnowsky gerber:  Hi Danielle, I haven't bee in touch with you in quite a long time and I was following your story since the article in the newspaper and I've been checking in on your website and I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about you and your family adn how difficult this must be for everyone. I can not imagine the pain that you go through on a daily basis and you just need to take one day at a time. I understand how hard it is, my 5 yr old cousin was trajically hit by a car a few years ago and I saw the pain in my aunt and uncle and how difficult it was to go on day to day. It wasn't easy but over time they learned how to deal with their new life even though not a day goes by that they don't think of him and the what ifs. It is hard, but over time it will get easier and trust me even though you may be afraid you'll forget certain things about them, you won't..she is your girl and your her mom and you will never forget the little things. It will take a lot of time but lean on each other and your family...and those people that tell you to get over it never lost a child or experienced the loss of a child in their family. It is something you won't ever "get over" you just move ahead. You need to talk about her to heal and the people that mean the most will listen and understand. Your in my thoughts and prayers...my email address is above you would like to get in touch...and cherish your memories.

    I have one special wish for everyone who reads this, Please for me.... Grab your loved one and your children and just hug them. Tell them that you love them don't think twice about doing this. Stop and look around you. Be proud of who you are and what you have. Nothing goes with you when you leave this place, just the feelings you create and the love inside continues on to Heaven with you. Create this love in everyone, because it doesn't matter what you have,or how much pain you are in, just that you have loved.... Show someone special you care. Kenzie always showed us, with her smiles and hugs. She was in constant pain and yet, her smile never left her face. She loved and cared for everyone... She taught us how to love with an unconditional love... This is stronger than anything else on this earth... Through Dave and I, and all of you, she will continue to show her love for everyone and smile down upon all of us with butterflies and rainbows forever...

    Comments:
    Debi (Dave's cousin):  Thank you Danielle for the reminder, hug a loved one, show/tell someone you love them every day! I'm so glad you are using the site and updating. I think about Kenzie and Ally almost every day! What little angels they are! I don't know who would EVER tell you to "get over" your child but I'm glad you are not listening to such cruel people. What kind of parents would that make you? You will NEVER "get over" Kenzie. You and Dave take your time and heal and deal the best you can, on your own time. I pray it does stop hurting so much one day, but I can't make you any promises! I can not even imagine walking in your shoes. God be with you and all of the family and friends! Continue to update and release your feelings, those that don't want to "hear" it, don't look at the site, those of us who enjoy the stories and Danielle's good advice check back often and say a prayer for them! Sending you, Dave and Zoe lots of colors from heaven..(actually Kenzie is sending them!) Have a day full of happy memories of Kenzie!
    Mom & Dad:  We can only be here for you, Dave and Zoe foreever and a day!! We pray for your broken hearts every minute of everyday!
    Love Forever,
    Mom & Dad

    My dearest Kenzie,
    Boy, do I miss you dearly. We have had a lot of people praying for us. Daddy and mommy really need this. Each day seems to be getting harder. I still can't imagine the rest of our lives without you. Zoe is truly a blessing. She helps to keep our minds occupied and our hearts full of love. You will always hold a special place inside of us. We have loved you, and will always love you. People have been reaching out to us, but sometimes its just hard to reach back to them. It is just so hard to talk about anything without talking about you. We don't want anyone to get annoyed with us. We are afraid people are tired of hearing about you. But, you are truly apart of our lives, you have taught us so much, how can you not continue to talk about my pretty little girl. We don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable.

    Kenzie, Some other people make mommy and daddy mad. Some people just can't even imagine what we are going through. They have told me to get over it or deal with it. Oh my, I am trying but why should I get over it. I don't think I will ever get over you. Four months may seem like a long time for some people, but every day is a new stuggle or a new reminder of you. Different things trigger new emotions. We are trying to be so strong, I feel some people just need to stop and think about how they would feel, if they lost their child. Would they be back to work in just two months after they lost their child? Would they be able to hold a conversation without talking about them? Some people need to stop and think about other people and know that not everything can just go away. Feelings cannot be ignored. You taught us to be so strong when you were here. I guess that is why we are so strong. Sometimes we just can't believe the things people are saying. Kenzie, mommy and daddy love you today and always. We will never forget you.

    To our friends, I want to thank everyone for their support even if we don't always call or write back, we are thinking about all of you. We aren't sure what to say or we don't want to be the downers in life. So maybe time will help us to become fun again. We are trying, we really are, but maybe time is all we need. Please keep sending letters, prayers or calling, but please don't get mad, if we don't respond. Sometimes we're just not sure what to say. I love all of you. Love Danielle

    taryn:  hey danielle, dave, and zoe. i haven't written in awhile, but i do get your emails every time something new is added to mckenzie's site. i miss seeing you guys, you always put a smile on my face. it makes me angry to read that people are saying such hurtful things to you and your family..people don't "get over" things just like that. it takes time to heal wounds, and sometimes it takes longer than other times. but the loss of anyone, especially a child is nothing to rush someone to "get over" i would love to come over and hear anything you have to say about mckenzie and your family. i love hearing stories, and mckenzie always put a smile on my face in church. i'm sure rachel would come with me to hear stories too, and nothing you would say would ever steer us away or get on our nerves. and i'm such rachel and i could make you guys laugh too, we're pretty comical when we're together. :] email me sometime, whenever you get the chance..i'd love to hear from you all. i miss you and love you all!

    Well here we are New Years Eve, Baby I can't believe your not here to celebrate this with us. We missed you at Christmas Time. Zoe always kisses your picture and tells you she loves you. We Miss you and Love you very much. People always say that your having the best Christmas ever, but I'm not. I guess I just can't believe where you are. Everyone says that your in Heaven, but how do you really know.. I find myself doubting this. I know my faith tells me to believe this, but I so long to know your okay, that I'll see you again and that you don't need me. I fear that your calling out for me and I can't help you, like I have always helped you. Daddy an I have always been there for you and I can't get over the fact that you don't need me any more. I need you.... boy,I can't believe how the tables have turned. I find myself calling out for you... I just want to hold you... I need you... Well Kenzie, We Love You and I just wanted to tell you that, not that you can read this but I need to tell you anyway. We saw a man today that was walking the way you used to, He reminded us just how much we really miss the way you use to walk, talk, jump, and laugh. Sissy started to sing all the songs you used too, I often belive your inside her singing out to me. She is such an Angel here on Earth helping Us to heal. But, I need you, My Angel in Heaven, to help me find the person I should be without you.. I can't seem to find my way. I feel so lost. Baby, please give me the strength and support from within to learn to enjoy life again. Happy New Years Baby!! We love you, Your family forever. Mommy, Daddy and Sissy.

    Vicki Rhoads Ellis:  Dear Family,
    I have been following your daughter's journey since the article was published in the newspaper. From time to time, I would check the website for updates. Your daughter's story has truly touched my heart. I can not even begin to understand your pain. I am deeply sorry. I will be praying for you for strength. God Bless.
    Jen, Ciera, Eric & Briana:  Dave, Danielle and Zoe, We are have been thinking about you and praying for you. Stay strong. I know it can't be easy and I really feel for you. McKenzie is looking down at you from Heaven. Don't lose your faith in the Lord. McKenzie is in a better place with no more pain. It is written that one day we will all be together again in a place so wonderful! She is an angel looking down at you, stay strong. She would want you to go on and be there for Zoe and eachother just like you were once there for her. It is easy to lose faith during these times and to question why. Keep taking one day at a time. Cherish your time here on earth with your friends and family and look forward to the day that you will all be reunited again. We love you and are here for you!
    Love, Jen
    Buddy - The Left Edge Band:  Know that there are many who care and pray for you and your family. Cherish all of the memories of McKenzie as you do, and appreciate your family - your parents, your husband and Zoe - and continue to make those special new memories. We are here on this planet for a mere instant in time. Some are taken much too soon for reasons that we don't know and can't control, but believe that they were put in our lives for a purpose - they truly are angels! Stay strong in your belief that we will all be together again with our personal angels. Make the most of your time here in anticipation for the great "Homecoming" which lies ahead. May peace and love continue to grow within. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
    Buddy
    Grammy & Poppy:  To our loving Daughter, Son & Zoe:
    Mom And I are trying to take away your pain. We not only grieve for McKenzie but we feel your pain.
    Please don't lose your faith, look what you, Dave,Zoe and McKenzie did for me! You saved my life!
    Love and prayers forever and a day!
    Daddy
