Lilah Grace Shnurman was born on Wednesday, August 29, 2018, at 10:19 a.m. to parents Sampson and Jessica Shnurman at Mercy Hospital in Des Moines. She weighed 6 pounds, 5 ounces and was 17 inches long.

Lilah’s family was blessed with 8 days with her, before she went to His heavenly home Friday, September 7th at 4:07 a.m. Lilah only knew love and was blessed with holding hands, hugs, and kisses from her momma, daddy, brother and close family and friends. Her brother Abel was quickly attached and spent most of her life smothering her with kisses and constantly wanting to hold her. She was able to ride home in daddy’s truck and spend time in the comfort of their home surrounded by lots of loved ones. She never had a moment lacking in love, kisses, or cuddles, because no one could get enough of her. She got to experience the sun on her face and the wind on her toes. Lilah amazed us all with her strength and ability to bring out love and joy from our hearts. The sweet memories of her short time with us will remain in our hearts forever.

Lilah is deeply loved by her momma and daddy, big brother Abel, her grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts and uncles, and many others. Lilah will always remain her parents’ precious baby girl and Abel’s little sister, and they look forward to holding her again in heaven one day.

A Memorial graveside service will be held at 11 a.m., Sunday, September 9, 2018 at the St. Patricks Cemetery, rural Norwalk.
