Wow, 10 years already Dad. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you. Actually, last night I needed your O-69 at Bingo and asked for you to make it happen and it was the next number and I won. So maybe you are watching over us. Your little Treesy is getting married in two months. I hope you and mom are taking good care of Jackie. We will all be together again some day so until then, know that I love and miss you every day!!!!

Hi Dad -

Wow - It is almost 9 years since you left the right side of the grass as you used to say. So much has happened in these 9 years. Your "Little Tresey" has followed in your footsteps and is now furthering her accounting career. She is getting married to a great guy and Nick has joined the family business. David and I are getting ready to downsize our living arrangements as the kids are moving out now. There isn't a day that goes buy where I don't think of you and mom. I hope you are taking care of Mom and Jackie. I miss you guys so much! Love eternally, your youngest daughter.

Hi dad

Its me..."lil". I can't believe you are gone. I'm sitting here now in your chair crying widhing you were here to hold me. I know everyone keeps telling me you are in a better place but that is not making the pain go away! You were and always will be the only man in my life. You've always taught me to fight for what I believe in and I always did and always will. Daddy, I cant stop crying! Are you there? Please give me a sign that it will be alright and you are there watching me. Dont worry about mom, we will take great care of her. When I call on the phone I'm expecting to here you say "LILLY" but your voice isnt there. Ill always remember you laughing with mom, cindy, and I in the hospital . You looked up withthose big blue eyes and held my hand. I still feel like I didn't get to say goodbye. Family will always come first like you taught us. Please watch over me daddy, I will always look up to you for guidance where ever you are. I'LL SEE YOU SOON!
I LOVE YOU DAD!
YOUR "LILLy"

hi daddy-
It's me...Lil. I will always remember you laughing at all my stupid jokes or me laughing at yours. I MISS YOU SOOOO MUCH. I CAN'T STOP CRYING! Please, if you ARE watching over me now, please make the hurt go away. I can't stand it. I have such a hole in my heart that I can't breathe. You were the only man in my life and always will be! I will always remember what you taught us...that family is more important than anything else! You were my inspiration and my mentor. All I ever wanted to do was please you. Sometimes we may not have seen eye to eye, but you always managed to guide me in the right direction. I will always remember that last time you called me "lil" and held my hand in the hospital. cindy, mom, and I kept playing that bear and you started laughing. That one moment I will cherish forever. I just want to hear the word "lil" one more time!

I LOVE YOU DAD!
YOUR "LILLY"

Daddy

How do I make it through each day now without your voice saying "hi Fuzz" when I call your house? You were a great influence on my life and tought me that blood is thicker than water. I will never forget my roots and will always live with the values and morals that you and mom have instilled upon me. You will always have a special place in my heart and there is a void there right now but I know God will take care of you until we are together again! I love you daddy and I thank you for giving me one last hug and kiss Friday and your big blue eyes staring at me as I left you that day! I will remember that hug for the rest of my life! I LOVE YOU DADDY!

Love, Fuzzy

Well, Gramps, this is hard, you were my best friend above all else, and I've sat there at the house every day waiting for you to come in and sit down in your chair. You've shaped me into the man I am today and the man that I will leave my lead my life as; one with character, intelligence, wit, and with family coming first. Life will never be complete again without you, but I'll always have our memories together. Rachel and I will do our best to take care of Grandma for the many years she has left. I hope to have a family of my own some day that will come remotely close to caring about me as much as I did about you. I know you're still looking at the green side of the grass, as you used to say, but now its from a different place. Rest in peace, my friend, grandfather, and so much more. Love, your Leroy

I am so blessed to have known you in my life. I will do my best to keep your Leroy happy, safe, and loved. I hope one day my grandkids will feel the pride and respect for me that Brandon and I do for you. I love you and will miss you.

Jeannie, Dave, Nick & Nicole -

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. Words cannot remove the pain, but find strength in each other & those around you that love you so much.

I know he was an amazing person to have been apart of such an amazing family. Find comfort in the memories and remember he will only be as far as a thought away.

God bless you during this difficult time and remember we all love you and are here for you whenever you need anything.

Love -

Sean
