Pedro was a happy baby boy and he was always smiling, and giggling. Pedro loved being tickled by his older sister Mia. He liked getting caressed by his older brother Dharius, and loved to share his bottle with his older brother Lionel. Pedro also loved to watch tv with his siblings and loved to be held and be cuddled by his parents. Our babyboy brought joy to all of our lives. Pedro will live on in all of our hearts. His life was a gift to us that will live on as his heart valves were donated and received to two other babies that are in need. Pedro was loved by all who met him and he will be greatly missed.
We will always love you, our little angel.
