There are so many things that I am going to miss about you, papa. I will miss hearing that familiar way you said "hey sweet pea". My birthday wont be the same without you calling to sing to me like only you could. You were such a special man, an awesome papa, and a true friend. Connor and I enjoyed spending our Sundays with you and we will miss you. I am grateful to have so many memoirs that I can share with him. I love you papa!
