Hey Dad:
Are you making people laugh again with your corny jokes? I listen to your voice every day on my cell phone - I'm so glad I kept it. I miss you more each passing day. Mom is having a hard time living without you. The only comfort I have is knowing that one day I'll see you again.
Love, Debby

I miss you so much, there are things going on right now that i would give anything in the world if you could just talk to me, be here to apart of and give me advice on what to do... Well you always thought i would make a wonderful mother and looks like you got your wish i am pregnant, came as quite a shock but hey most things are these days.. I look as this baby as a gift from you to me and this family,.... maybe that is crazy for me to think but you and me were always a bit crazy :)

It's going on 7 weeks since I last saw you and held your hand. I am having nightmares every night since you've been gone. There was no father better than you in this world. I can only hope that you are watching over me and hope that I make you proud.

Papa,
I still can't believe that your gone, I love you so much and miss you. I miss my partner in crime, all the movies and comedy shows we watched together just aren't the same now. Nothing is. It never ever will be again, i am gonna write in this book every week.. I am fulfilling my promises i made to you, Mom and Nana will be ok. I promise,... Everything you taught me I will take with me and pass on to my own children someday, nobody will ever have a grandfather like i had. You were my papa, my dad, my support system, my guide and now I will make you just as proud of me as I was and will always be of you..
I love you with all my heart and i miss you papa...

When I think of Christy I will always see him smiling, hear him joking and think of him happy! No one is ever ready to lose their husband, father or friend but you will have so many wonderful memories of a man who loved his family.
