Dad,
Just wanted to let you know Im thinking of you, everything is going so well right now. Wishing you were still here to share some laughs with. Not a day goes by where you dont manage to encourage me to be the best i can be. "give it your best or dont do it at all" I will always cherish all of the lessons and morals you instilled in me. You will always be my guiding spirit in this life of mine. Miss you, Dad. Love you.
- David "Thats my boy!"
oh and by the way Dad..The party is just getting started!

Happy Birthday
Wishing you were here today
for even, just awhile
So I could say Happy Birthday
and see your loving smile.
The only gifts today will be
your sweet memories left behind
of laughter, joy and happiness
that echo on, in my mind.
I'll gaze upon pictures
I'll think of you with love
And hope you're doing fine
in Heaven up above.
May angels hold you closely
and sing you a happy song
And I'll be sending wishes
today and all year long.
Missing you on your special day.
with hugs and kisses,
"Des"

Happy Birthday Lou..
To the most loving man I have ever met. You are still so endearing to me. I still think about what you said, " you will never find another man like me" You are right. You were the most special man in my life, and how fortunate I was to be with you. We had fun..we knew love..
I wish you love always. Even more I wish you were still here.
I love and miss you ver much....

Dad,
You have been on my mind a lot lately, however at this point in my life I am so happy to know how proud of me you would be. I know your always with me and guiding me in life, I am so happy and blessed to be out of the nightmare I was in, throughout the entire struggle I went through you were always on my mind. I would tell myself, " I cant keep living like this I need to make my dad proud." I finally am so happy knowing your smiling down on me saying, "thats my boy!" Love you Dad, I really wish you were still here...

In memory of you sweetheart. Its been 13 years..and I miss you like it was yesterday.
This Christmas was quite difficult with the unexpected death of Fred. It's times like these that my faith becomes stronger and pray that we will all find one another in the end. I hope you enjoyed the fragrant roses I left today. I told you I would. I love you ..Des

October 1,1988 . The day we said "I Do"..and were like two peas in a pod. How fortunate we were to share the special love we had for each other. To be # 1 in each others life was more than I could ever ask for. You made living life fun and eventful. We shared many laughs, songs , and stories..they were endless. You are one of the most beautiful,..colorful,..unselfish people I have ever known. You gave me the gift of David..I know how much pleasure you had watching him grow..you loved life..and you loved your family..most of all I would agree twenty years more would have been grand..
The autumn leaves are falling now, and your favorite song always comes to mind..
Investing 8 years with each other in getting to know you was so worth the time before actually saying I Do.
You captured my heart so very long ago and youre still holding onto it.
I love you dearly, Des

Happy Birthday Lou,
Still not a day goes by that I have some thought of you..or us… My life now, and the special loving bond that we shared for so many years. How fortunate we were to tell each other how much we loved one another, and the tenderness of never one kiss but at least three. Those have been my memories lately. I look back as if it was not long ago to our last three kisses and you saying I love you not once, but three times that morning.
If i had to do all again I would still choose you. Happy Birthday my love.

Happy father's day dad. I finally got it. Life has been beautiful lately and I know how proud you would be that I'm finally doing well and getting my life together. I think about together every day and miss you. I know your watching over me and guiding me in my life. I feel so much better knowing that you would be Happy with my decisions now instead of knowing how ashamed you would be of what I was doing in the past. Life's good dad. Miss you. Happy fathers day
love you. -David

Grandpa, today is your son's birthday. You would be so proud of the man he has become. His children are his legacy. We are all amazing people who have accomplished so much. I have no doubt that he is the reason for our success. He taught us by example. You created generations of successful, compassionate, hard working, intelligent, and loving people. What a legacy you left. I pray I can do the same with my children. I miss you. I love you. Put a good word in for me, will you? We sure could use some help down here.

Dad, Happy Father's Day. I wish I was mature enough to have appreciated all the lessons you tried to teach me when you were alive. I have learned about what you tried to teach me after you passed away. I miss you and love you. I wish Dylan knew you. Y would adore him, as I do. Thank you for your teachings and love you gave and shared with me. Fred

Happy Father's Day Lou..
Today is a day that I will honor you. You are in my thoughts and prayers everyday.. I know how much you enjoyed the special days in the year, and although you really didn't want me to fuss over you, it was always the thing that brought me the most joy! Seeing you smile was what really made my day. If I had to choose to do it over again I would still choose you! I love you and miss you everyday.

Happy Birthday Lou. It's so hard to believe that it is ten years this year since we were all together in Vermont celebrating your Birthday. One of your "trueisms"..the older you get, the faster it goes. I could not agree with you more. I want life to slow down just a bit, so that I may enjoy life a little more.
I'm amazed when I hear a song that you liked to sing..."you are my Sunshine", being sung on the tv or the radio, how instantly I can hear you again..
Your life has left your footprints imbedded in my heart.
Today is your Day and it will Always be a celebration.
I miss you and love you very much,

Happy Anniversary Sweetheart.. This was our day to be remembered. If I had it to do all over again I would still choose you. You were the one then and now. You are one of the sweetest men I have ever met.. you were everything to me. 1988 does not seem so long ago, but when you do the math, wow. Our love started long before that(1979) and just kept growing. I cannot thank you enough for the good times we shared and all the affection you showered me with through all the years. During your last months you said just give me twenty more years..I wish it could have come true.
I love and miss you everyday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOU.. You would have been 90 today. I really can't believe it. For sure I would have thought if anybody could make it ..you would have for sure. I'm still your strongest supporter for sure. I miss you every day and only you can imagine what that feels like.David is still having to figure things out for himself. When I try to offer him suggestions, he listens for the moment and moves on. I always pray that some of it clicks with him. How I wish you were here to inspire him more. He is a strong individual like we knew.He needs direction. It is your day sweetie...and I know how we would have celebrated. Always remember that I love you...your family loves you..and I am here to listen. You are the best!
January 26, 2010
Dad, its really hard to believe everything thats gone on in my life since youve been gone. Some days are good and some days are bad lately, just seems to be more bad ones then good. You always told me to just do anything i have to do to be happy. I strive for that daily. I really miss you, more lately then ever. It just sucks. im surprised to find that nobody has written you since 08. im really trying to keep my head up lately, it just seems hard to catch a break in life sometimes. Hopefully everything will turn around one day. Wish you were here.

It is hard to imagine that it is seven years ago.. Lou, I still miss you all the time. David is with me for the holidays and I want you to know that we still keep the 26th set aside to be together to be with you. For one reason or another you have been weighing on my heart quite heavily lately.. Please be reassured that my heart is always open and I'm always listening.. your little "suzie",

Happy Birthday Lou.. I glanced at the date on a print out just a few minutes ago..and I can tell by the numbers you would have liked how they looked..8-08-2008. All of your numbers. Your birthday and the year you were born..pretty incredible I'm sure would would agree. I was home last week but before returning to Erie, Pa. I played a song on the piano..as I played I really payed attention to the lyrics which I rarely do..however, I found that it was so profound for what you meant to me..They are from the Phantom of the Opera.
You will always be in my heart..I have shared countless stories with Mike about you.. he's a great guy..I think you already know that..I see so many crossovers between the relationships..that it makes me feel very comfortable with it.
Anyway, this is your special day ..I will raise my glass tonight and toast you!
i love you still,

On a day that has so much meaning, for all the wonderful things you did in your life for three sons whom you loved very much..this note is in remembrance of you. I wish that you were here to see how your family has grown. There are little people running everywhere, and cute as can be.
David will be a senior this year and still continues to struggle on all fronts. I love him but have decided that it's time to let go and let him figure this out for himself. I's been a difficult decision however doing anything at all for him at this point will only enable him and keep him from moving forward. One day I pray that he comes to know the sacrifices that we made along the way to bring him in†o this world. it was not an easy journey..and for me, an expression of your unselfish love and willingness to share this experience. I know that David misses you, we ALL do..however I wish that he would draw strength from knowing that all you ever asked was that he be a good boy,(young man now) and study hard, and love and respect his mom. He has yet to figure that out and continues to blame everyone else but the real culprit. I will not disappoint you and will be sure that whatever I do it will be with consideration of what you would have wanted me to do in handling this situation.
You are so dear to me still..I share our stories a lot..you were the love of my life and I'm so grateful for all the years we had together. with every beat of my heart,
Des

This was always a day of anticipation for me..Just wanting your birthday tomorrow to be very special for you. I will always remember how much you loved celebrating each one of them. I am in Vermont once again and will be with David to celebrate your birthday either tomorrow night or Thursday night. We still like to spend that day together in your honor. I'm sure all of the family thinks about you on your special day. Nobody made a birthday more special than you Lou. Your presence is still very much with me..and I still think of you all of the time.
The answer to your question would be,
Yes, I'm still your girl!
I miss you very much.

August8th,2006 Happy Birthday To You Lou.
This is, was, and always will be
"Your Special Day"! I will always
remember how much you enjoyed
celebrating your birthday. Of course we all loved it as well, but I was always so tickled by the way you woke up singing your favorite song,
"Happy Birthday To Me." I really believed it should have been, "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow", but heh, it was your birthday. I loved watching your expessions..as you opened your gifts..The little boy in you shown through. I also loved surprising you with a special party and sometimes with a twist too, a horse and carriage ride to your own party.You were always so appreciative, but even more you always loved a good party...you were the light that cast many smiles on my face for so many years. I will still celebrate with you and bring you roses that I know you will love. David had me arrange a phone call with him on your birthday so you would know that we are thinking of you, and that we still miss you dearly.
with more memories than one heart can hold..I love you,
"your Cherie"..Des

Happy Father's Day Sweetheart.
Your heart would be warmed with the turn of events that are taking place with our family. For starters, Ryan has been sworn in after passing the Tennessee Bar and is practicing with Fred. We knew all along he could do this. Sean, Ryan,April, and myself will join Fred and Misty in Las Vegas this week to Witness and Celebrate their union in Marriage. I know that you would be very proud of this moment and would really enjoy Misty..she's a very sweet girl.
David is doing great! David will be graduating HLA this August and will walk away from that campus a better young man. I have watched him struggle and deal with so many issues while there, but in my heart I can honestly see a beautiful young man emerging. You can rest peacefully knowing that David and my relationship is very strong..filled with tremendous love, very respectful, and very honest. He continues to excell aacademically and his approach to life is very positive..I love what I see, and you would be so proud of him I know! David will be attending a great private school in N.H.this fall as a sophmore. Yes, he did skip a grade. The school is not very far at all from Dartmouth, so I'm sure that David will feel right at home in his new surroundings. I'm sure you know that I will look forward to visiting him while he is there too..I still love the Mountains of Vermont..I wish you were here to join me. I am forever greatful for you sharing your life with me and giving me the greatest gift in memeory of you.."our son, David". I will always miss you.
all my love,

Happy Birthday Lou! Yes I am in Vermont, and I can still hear your voice resonating as you lead us in "Your Favorite Song", Happy Birthday To You. You always loved a good party, and I loved you for it.
I was humored this morning while having a coffee I read your horoscope and it was "so you". It warned you to hold off on important agreements,but not to be afraid to brainstorm any financial arrangements for the future. I also thought about what you would like to do on your birthday if you were here today. Probably take a nice scenic drive. So in your honor I will drive to see the second most beautiful waterfall in Vermont up near Stowe..another town that you enjoyed in Vermont. I think you liked going there because you were guarenteed an ice cream cone at Ben & Jerry's another favorite of yours. I really miss seeing your delight in the simple pleasures of life. I will tell you about today once I return. David will be joining me in Vermont on saturday. He still struggles with your loss..and rightly so. He has many questions now that he only wishes he could have asked you. Please help him find his way. Something happened here at the condo last night or in the wee hours of the morning that for me was a sign that you are here with me. It was comforting to know that.
We all miss you. David and I continue to sign the back of the print in the bathroom downstairs..see how you have left your imprint in our hearts..I love you. Happy Birthday To You. xoxo,

This is your day Lou...we will always remember you singing along with us,...and sometimes by yourself the "Happy Birthday Chorus"
You always made birthdays a very special time and sang for an entire month..which included before and after a birthday as well. There is nobody like you.I'm so glad that I made each one of your birthdays so special. The little boy quality that lived deep inside you showed through every time. You really loved life. Once again Fred had the entire family come to Hilton Head to be together for a week. What a wonderful bonding time that was for all of us. David and I met Dylan for the first time. You would eat him up..he is a beautiful boy. This was an important time for David as well.
He needs to know the bonds he has with his family. He's a great kid..you would be so proud of him. David has made great strides this past year and will continue to do so at his new school this fall. I love him dearly and cannot thank you enough for this precious gift you gave me.. you were always so generous. What you instilled in Fred has created what will be a strong legacy emphasizing the importance of family.He continues to be a great Dad and supportive brother for David. David and I really enjoy our time with all of them.
Happy Birthday Sweetheart..wish you were with us to sing to you once again. You are always in my heart.
love you,
Des & David

I love you and miss you.

Sweetheart,
I can't believe that it is almost six months since you slipped away. I have thought a lot about all those things we spoke about those last couple of months and have come to a better understanding of how you knew about what was going to happen and with all your wisdom and love continued to do what you have done for the past 22 years, make sure that everything was going to be alright.You have always been so complete for me, I couldn't ask for more. We just seem to compliment each other so well.
David has been wonderful through this whole transition..you would be so proud of him. He is finishing up 4th grade and making excellent grades too.He certainly has your head for math. David qualified to take Algebra 1 in fifth grade next year, "that's my boy", I can hear you say. I do miss hearing your voice...David and I will be leaving to go to Vt.in the next couple of weeks..I will have to add something to the back of the picture that you signed in the bathroom. It was such a tradition for all of us to be up there for your birthday..I will have to think of something special to do this year in your memory. I want you to know that you are always in my heart. I can remember all the times you sang that song to me..I miss that too.
We love you Lou.

We were always number"1" to each other for the past twenty two years. He was the man that warmed my heart, and made me smile when he entered the room. There was never a dull moment in our house either, for Lou was so colorful as an individual could be.As our dear friend Laird in Vermont said,"Lou was an object lesson in living life to its fullest.If the world was Disneyland then he didn't miss a ride". He exemplified the meaning
for Father through compassion and being there when needed, and as a Husband..he was the best. I love you and will miss you dearly,

Desiree sent us a letter election day 1980, "Lou & I moved into our new apartment til our house is finished, I can't want til you meet him, I love him so much. Lou said to tell you that he sends his love? OH! He sends his love and kisses."
Don't think of him as gone away
His journey's just begun
Life holds so many facets
This earth is only one
Just think of him as resting
From the sorrows & the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days & years
Think how he must be wishing
That we could known today of how nothing but our saddness can really pass away.
And think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched F
For nothing loved is ever lost & he was loved so much.
