Comforting grieving families who have experienced the loss of a baby.
"He comforts us in all our troubles so we can comfort others..." 2 Corinthians 1:4
Our Mission
Request A Bear
Our Mission
Barrett’s Bears aim is to provide comfort and hope to families who have lost babies due to miscarriage, stillbirth, or early infant loss.
Our prayer is that this bear, personalized in your baby’s memory, will serve as a constant reminder of Christ’s love for you, as well as the Hope we have of Heaven.
We pray that each time you hold your bear, you are comforted and reminded of how much you and your baby are loved by Jesus.
Whether the bear is placed on a shelf, used in family photos, or simply held tight in your arms, our hope is that you will feel connected to your baby, and reassured your baby will never be forgotten!
Our Story
Request A Bear
Our Mission
The ministry of Barrett’s Bears was founded by Natalie and Walker Boggs, whose son, Barrett Anthony Boggs, went to be with Jesus on September 25, 2018, when he was just 4 months and 17 days old. On that very day, God put a rainbow in the sky, reminding them of the Hope of Heaven and the promises to come. Shortly after Barrett’s passing, the family was gifted their "Barrett Bear" by a friend. Their bear has been a constant reminder to them, and to their other children, that Barrett is still very much a part of their lives and their story. Their mission is to comfort other families in the same way they have been comforted through the love of Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 1:4).
