Created in memory of our dear son, Zade.
Building Zade’s legacy by transforming grief into something meaningful and magical.
Welcome to Zade’s Christmas Drive and the Forever Zade Blog, where we honor our dear son, Zade, who passed away on November 3, 2021, due to a full-term stillbirth.
Despite our immense loss, we continue to make Zade the center of our world and keep his memory alive. In spreading the Christmas cheer, we aim to put a smile on kids' faces, give back to the community, and contribute to the greater good by supporting charitable causes.
At the same time, we also want to shine a light on the importance of promoting open conversations about pregnancy and infant loss and spreading awareness.
Through these efforts, we hope to honor Zade's memory, while also making a positive impact on the world.

With death and grief comes the familiar saying: “life is short”
For years, that phrase has driven me nuts. It carries this pressure — that life is a race to check things off a list, to squeeze in as much as possible before the clock runs out. To live with the constant reminder that you could die tomorrow, so you’d better do it all today.
But I don’t want to live with that mindset.
I’d rather live life like it’s long.
To take my time.
To be fully present.
To live with intention — something Zade taught me.
