Brother, Uncle, Words can not express the loss we feel. You will be greatly missed. Always from my earliest memories of you..as you lovingly took care of Grandma, you lovingly and thoughtfully cared for your sister. With beautiful cards and caring phone calls. We will miss hearing from you but in faith, we know someday we will be together again and right now we know you are with all those we love who have gone before. I know you and my Dad are together in Heaven and smiling down on us. Love forever, Margie, Kathy

Dad,
You will be missed so much by those that loved you here on earth but I know that you are in a great place. No more hurt, no more worry, no more tears. I know that you will watch out for us and be with us all of our days until that day when we will also be called home and you will welcome us with open arms. As you see us cry we are crying because we love you so much and can't imagine living without you. But we will and as situations arise we will recall all of the wise words that you have given us. I love you Dad!!

Dear Dad,
I will miss you more than you can imagine. I just know that you are up in heaven dancing and walking like I have never seen you before. I have no idea who I will talk to every day and where I will get the advice you gave but don't worry Dad I'll make it.
I will love you forever and always, Kim
