Biography

The first child of Charles Ervin McGee and Laura Rachel Helms was a much-anticipated arrival.[1] Rachel was a long way from home and had confided in her mother, via a letter, that she wondered if she would ever have children. [1]

Unfortunately, the baby was stillborn on 29 September 1957 at the March Air Force Base hospital in Riverside, Riverside County, California. It was a full-term pregnancy but the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby's neck. (see source #[2])

He was cremated on 1 October 1957 and the ashes were scattered at Montecito Memorial Park, Riverside, California. Arrangements were handled by Preston Colonial Chapel in Riverside, California.

The Brother That Never Was

Are you the reason Mommy was scared?

Are you the reason Daddy drank?

Are you the reason I looked for a little boy to play with?

Are you the reason I have more male friends?

Are you out there someplace?

Did you choose to come again and be close for a while?

Are you waiting for the next turn of the Spiral Circle?

Where are you? What happens?

As usual, more questions than answers.
