Kanton Jasper Gressman was born still on May 10, 2019 at 6:50pm at the CHI St. Alexis Health Medical Center in Dickinson, ND.

Although he never took a breath of earth’s fresh air he has taken a piece of our hearts with him forever. From the moment we found out he existed he was so deeply loved. His 4 big brothers and big sister were overjoyed by the news that they were going to have a baby brother. His loss is heartbreaking for all of us.

His middle name means “bringer of treasure” and he certainly fulfilled his name in his short time here. He brought us joy, hope, and love. In his death he brought us the most precious gift of all - a closer relationship with Jesus, our Lord and Savior, as we navigate through the deep grief our hearts feel right now.

At this time of such heartache the only comfort we have is knowing that he is in the arms of Jesus.
