Cohen Cooper & Hoisington

Cohen Cooper & Calla Grace Hoisington July 22, 2013

Cohen Cooper and Calla Grace were born on July 2, 2013 at the District One Hospital in Faribault, before being transported to St. Mary''s Hospital in Rochester. Cohen was born at 9:20 a.m. and Calla arrived at 10:06 a.m., both weighing 1 pound 4 ounces. The twins came into this world too early, being only 22 weeks, and it was too much for them to bear. Cohen peacefully passed away on July 4, 2013, and Calla joined her big brother on July 22, 2013. Cohen and Calla''s family were blessed with many beautiful moments and days with their babies before they flew off to heaven.

Cohen and Calla are deeply loved by their mommy and daddy, Luke and Briana Hoisington; maternal grandparents, Don Hebel of Waterville, and Beth and Jeff Wagner of Elysian; paternal grandparents, Gerry and Julie Hoisington of Faribault; maternal great- grandparents, Ed Hebel of Kilkenny, and Arne and Hope Leen of Waterville; paternal great-grandparents, George and Delores Caron of Faribault; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. The twins'' presence was so powerful and even in the short time they were here on this earth, they made an amazing impact on everyone. Cohen and Calla will always remain their parents'' precious babies and they will hold them again in heaven one day.

Luke and Briana would like to say thank you to everyone for their support, prayers and love. You can read about their journey on http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/callahoisington.
