Here is a message from Tim & Megan:

"It is with heavy, broken hearts that we would like to announce that our son, Timothy Sawyer Strombel, was born at 6:59 am on Sunday, August 25th, but unfortunately went to be with the Lord earlier last week.

We went to the doctors for our routine, weekly check up on Thursday morning but, for reasons only known to God, his little heart had stopped beating sometime prior to that. (Our strong, little man had almost made it to 38 weeks.) We were admitted to the hospital that night and after laboring for over 60 hours, we were finally able to hold our little angel in our arms. At 6 lbs. 5 ounces and 20 inches long, with his Daddy's chin, Mommy's lips, blonde tufts of hair on his head, and the cutest button nose we have ever seen, he was/is complete perfection.

As much as our hearts are breaking for the loss of our beautiful boy, we feel overwhelmingly blessed to be chosen by God to be his parents and wouldn't trade that for the world. We will love our sweet baby angel, forever and always."
