Alexander Rosario Jr. was born sleeping at 39 weeks just a few days before his actual due date. His mother Christine’s pregnancy went very well and never showed signs of any problems. He was a very active baby inside mommy’s womb.
On the morning of Friday August 13, 2010 she headed to her last checkup since her due date to have the baby was near. That day changed her and her husband Alexander’s life forever. As Christine went into her appointment the nurse nor the doctor could find the baby’s heartbeat so they sent her to a local hospital in the Rochester, NY area. Christine quickly called Alex who had stayed home to tend to their other two sons about the news. Alex met Christine at the hospital where another ultrasound was completed to make sure things were ok. Unfortunately things were not ok, the doctor was not able to find the baby’s heartbeat either. Alex and Christine were given the heart wrenching news that their baby boy Alexander Jr. who they so anxiously were getting ready to meet and have in their arms soon had sadly passed away. The news shocked the entire family as we never imagined such a thing could happen especially not to our families. We all united together to suppor t Alex and Christine as soon as we heard the news.
Christine was immediately admitted to the maternity ward where she was induced. She and Alex were surrounded by family throughout the day and evening as she went through the labor process. As soon as Christine was dilated she and Alex decided they would be the only ones in the delivery room along with the doctor and nurses. Alexander Rosario Jr. was born sleeping just after midnight on August 14, 2010. He was a precious baby boy who we still love and adore. We were all able to spend much time with him before our physical goodbyes and take pictures etc.
Our mission is to make sure Alexander Jr’s. memory lives on forever. We are not afraid to speak his name or speak about him because he blessed our lives and still does. He is always around us in spirit and even sent his parents 2 rainbow babies some time after gaining his wings. We try our best as his family to help other families who are or may deal with such a loss because it is not easy and it is something you don’t think would ever happen to your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with all parents and families who have dealt or may deal with a infant/baby/child loss and we will always remember their tiny little angels. We love you Alexander Jr. You may have been stillborn BUT you were STILL born and you will always be a part of our family.

Due to the restrictions and safety precautions required by New York State because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the WNYPBN has to restructure our annual events. In response to this series of unfortunate circumstances, the creative team has come up with alternatives to our annual events, while still paying tribute to your beautiful babies and helping others who are in need of assistance after the loss of their babies, while keeping our community safe.
Please visit our Events tab for information about our upcoming 2022 Events and Fundraisers. We hope you are all able to participate in one or all of our events as we adapt to our “New Normal” and continue to stay in good health and be safe. We are grateful for your support!
Thank you, Emily, Christine, Sue, Kelly and our Event Volunteer Committee
