Zachary Duncan Draper
December 2001 - May 17, 2002
Memorial services were held June 1, 2002, at D.W. Newcomer's Oaklawn Memorial Gardens, Olathe, KS. Zachary Duncan Draper was beautiful as his mother, loved by God and others. My little baby boy didn't make it to his Daddy's arms. I never got to hold and kiss him, tell him stories or read him rhymes. I love you Zachary and look forward to seeing you in heaven. Survivors include his father, Brad Draper of Kansas City, MO and his mother, of Overland Park, KS. (Arrangements: D.W. Newcomer's Sons Johnson County Funeral Chapel.)
" The culture of death affects more than just the innocent babies killed in abortuaries. It reaches out and touches all of us, and always in tragic ways. The story of Zachary Duncan Draper and his father, Brad Draper, drive this point home. The father placed an obituary in a Kansas newspaper after he learned that his son had been aborted. Brad Draper, 44, never got to hold his son, love him and see him grow because his girlfriend, had the butchers at a Planned Parenthood clinic rob him of those joys. She did not even bother telling Brad Draper she was going to kill Zachary. On Sept. 10, Brad Draper shot himself in front of that very Planned Parenthood clinic. He died the next day. Why Sept. 10 ? That was the date Zachary was due to be born."
