Six-year-old Owen lived with his mother Kathleen in a small, modest apartment in Michigan. Life had been tough since Owen’s father left them when he was just a baby. Kathleen worked as much as she could at two jobs, but it never seemed to be enough to cover all of their monthly expenses.
Even though his mom struggled, she tried her best to give Owen the happiest life possible. He was a kind and energetic little boy who was full of life and love. He loved to watch programs about dinosaurs and his dinosaur toy collection grew whenever Kathleen had a few extra dollars.
