Thank you so very much for visiting this website. If you’re in Bellingham, please visit Kyle’s bench at Bayview Cemetery, just off of Lakeway Drive. Have a seat, enjoy the sunshine, feel peace while listening to the creek flow and the birds sing as you remember Kyle. Maybe we’ll see you there!
With our Love,
Konrad and Cindy Kocsis

The sky, so clear, bright and blue
A child’s laughter, happy at noon
The beat in a car, a thumping tune
These are the things that remind me of you.
A laughing boy, with eyes so blue
Who looks at the world, so fresh and new
These are the things that remind me of you.
Full of joy to have life in my womb
Each day seems so exciting and new
Happiness to find a white baby shoe
These are the things that remind me of you.
It’s been fourteen months since you flew
From my arms to your life anew,
To the sunshine and ocean so blue
Oh, Kyle, to turn back, if only I knew
It would be the last time I set eyes on you
I’d hold you so tight, and never let go.
I love you to the moon and back,
And this you know—and knew
These are the things that remind me of you.
For nine months I carried you
Now you’ve been gone nine months too
We all have our crosses to bear, yes we do,
Yet I prefer to count my blessings when I think of you.
The memories, the laughter, the years that stand true
These are the things that will help get me through
The days, hours and minutes when I’m missing you.
Love, Mom

How to explain the loss of my son?
I’m in year two, my journey’s just begun.
The hopes and dreams I had for my boy
Bring me pain and hurt instead of pure joy.
I’ve changed and become a grieving Mom
I’ve gathered my Tribe and just held on.
My world was shattered, and ripped to shreds
And oh, the thoughts that race through my head!
Some good, some bad, only memories remain
Of my sweet little boy and nothing’s the same.
He’ll never get married, or become a Dad
He’s “forever twenty-six”, and that makes me sad.
But on this journey I’ve learned something new—
A little advice I’ll pass on to you.
Grieving parents, we share a special bond
We live in the past, and it’s hard to move on.
Yet the one word that we all yearn to hear
Is our child’s name, it helps keep them near.
Our hearts beat faster and we’re filled with Pure Love
As we think of our child, a Gift from Above.
My advice if you want to help ease the pain
Is keep his memory close, and please say his name!
It won’t make me sad, I can promise you
So please speak his name—it’s the best you can do!
I know you’re afraid, but listen to me,
Remember my son, who’s now flying free.
Love, Kyle’s Mom

Kyle my son, we were excited for you from the moment of conception
Those 9 months of development, followed by your
birth was the ultimate reception
You came into our lives so pure, young innocent and free
The unconditional love between us would be the key
A child’s life is a gift from God above
Expected to bring peace and harmony like a dove
When in reality the result of a child
Will change your world and the ride will be wild
As a young boy you had wonder and desire
Seeking answers to life’s questions was your fire
Your laugh and smile was welcomed everywhere you went
Your love for family and friends must have been heaven sent
Your blonde hair and blue eyes would complement your smile
And your big bold bear hugs will never go out of style
You lived your life to be happy and full of passion
Your enthusiasm and caring will never go out of fashion
The way you left this earth was not part of God’s plan
Accidents happen, which we are not a fan
Seeing you, hearing you and holding you, is what we all miss
That little boy that would always welcome us with a kiss
Now that you are in heaven and have left us all behind
In honor of you I ask everyone to be courteous and kind
I love you my dear son Kyle from deep in my soul
The pain of your loss has taken a grand toll
Sharing memories of you from deep in our heart
Will forever unite and bond us and never keep us apart
May God bless you and rest in peace
Until your mother and I join you in heaven for a grand feast.
Forever Love, Dad

I went on a walk today,
And Grief came with me.
We’re constant companions now,
In this new life I lead.
My Grief was not invited,
It came crashing in last May.
And, Grief, my new companion,
Is forever here to stay.
I’m learning to accept my Grief,
I have to make it mine.
It likes to grip my heart,
Seldom with a sign.
Grief will squeeze, and hold on tight,
Until I let it go.
I really have no choice, you see,
I need the tears to flow.
I’ve learned a good cry is soothing,
And this I’ve come to know.
Grief will always find me,
Wherever I may go.
The emptiness inside me
Will never fade away.
Losing a son is tough, you see,
And I’ll never be the same.
Kyle’s Mom
