Hi Daddy,
Just want to wish you a Happy Fathers Day. I wish you were still here with me so I could give a big hug and kiss.
I miss and love you more than words can say. I am having a rough day today without you here. Although I think of you everyday, the special days make me miss more, if that is possible.
You were always my strength and I sure need you now. I am trying to be strong, like you taught me to be.
I love you so very much. You truly were
"The Wind Beneath My Wings".
Love you,
Gail

daddy,
It's hard to belive that it has been 3 years since you were taken from us. Today on the anniversary of your death, we buried sunshine. Now the whole gang is back together.... you, momma, faith, and now sunny. I miss all of you very much and wish you all were still here with me. Every time when it seems to start to get just a little bit easier, we lose someone else that we care about so deeply. Im sure sunshine is sitting on your coffee mug drinking all the coffee he can every morning with you and faith is eating her cherrios with you and momma for breakfast. Take care of sunshine for me daddy, as i know you will. I love you and miss you. There is never a day that goes by that i dont think of you.

Dear Daddy,
I don't think it will ever get easier not having you here for Father's Day, but I know you are having one of your favorite meals - either momma's one of a kind chicken and dumplings or her chicken stew just how you like it.
I wish I was that fortunate to be able to taste her cooking once again.
I Love You!!!

Faith has now made her way to you in heaven (Tuesday, February 20, 2007 at 11:43 p.m.) She can now see, hear, and has good legs. I know you are happy to have her there with you and momma.
See all of you when the good lord plans.
All my love,

Happy Anniversary to you and Momma. I know you two are celebrating your anndversay and Sid's birthday together.

It is always hard for me not having you here, but it is especially hard as the holidays are here. There are so many memories that fill my mind and wish that I could relive again.
We are having it a bit hard down here. Please watch over us as you always have, and give us the guidance we so deperately need.
I love you Daddy and I miss you so much,

Daddy,
We finally made it happen and placed momma's earthly body with yours. I know she has been in heaven with you, but not to have her body next to yours was difficult to handle. But, today after her casket slowly descended into her final resting place, I was able to finally smile knowing she is next to you.
I love and miss you and am so happy for you and momma that you are together in such a wonderful place - heaven.
I love you,
Vanessa

Happy Fathers Day Daddy,
It is hard to believe this is my second Fathers Day without you.
You were the best father ever. The morals and values you tought me are ingrained in me. Thank you.
You still have your green thumbs. The grass at Lake Lawn still looks pretty bad except the grass over you. It is lush and green.
We are finally going to bring you your "Love". Mother will finally join you on Friday June 23. I know I will feel better when you are together again.
Love and miss you,
Gail

Happy Father's Day. I know you celebrated in style in heaven with momma, and probably had one of your favorite dishes, Chicken Stew, only the way momma could make it. I miss you. You are always in my thoughts and forever in my heart.

Daddy,
It's hard to believe you have been gone for a whole year yesterday on the 16th. Even though you have the best of company with you - momma, Sidney, and Mr. deLeon, I really miss you here. It has been very hard this past year and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you and momma. I know you and momma have a beautiful home in heaven, but someday soon we will be able to reunite your earthly bodies at Lake Lawn Park.
I am really happy that you and momma could celebrate your 67th anniversary together in heaven as well as Sidney's 67th birthday. I'll bet it was grand.
Stay close to us, as we still need you.
All my love - forever,
Vanessa

Well, here it is January 2, 2006 and am I glad 2005 is over. 2005 was such a devistating year for our family.
It is still hard to really believe you and Momma are really gone. It is like I am in some sort of limbo about Momma being gone. I don't have closure since her body is not with yours, where she is suppossed to be. I know your souls are together, but I need your bodies together, as you were together in life.
Sometimes I feel like I am loosing it, but then I think of you and some how I can go on. You were always my strength and still are. I always joke around, saying I got your ugly feet, rotten gums and lousy stomach. The thing I got of yours that sees me through is "Your Back Bone" and I thank you for that.
I know you are looking down on us all and still doing your very best to take care of us, as you always did. I still have some tough times ahead with Sid being so sick, but with your help I know I can deal with it.
I love you Daddy and always will.
You are still the "Wind beneath my wings" and always will be.

Daddy,
I can’t believe that you weren’t at Troy’s today. It felt strange not having you there to say grace. I know you are in a better place with momma, but I still miss ya’ll sooo much. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think of you. I can just picture you and momma in heaven in the kitchen with momma cooking and you there beside her.
We are trying to keep it together, but it is hard. I wish you were here to tell me it will all be okay.
I love you and miss you daddy,
All my love, always,

October 13, 2005
Well Daddy, today was the day we all dreaded for so long, "Momma's funeral." It's hard to believe that now you and Momma are both gone, and this will be the hardest thing to accept, but i know I have to. As i sit here listening to a song called gifts and curses, I think of all the memories we have shared together. Like the time gregory moved away and you, Momma, and I went to get a hamburger from wendy's to make me feel better, when everyday during the summer you would pack me a lunch with a fried hot dog sandwhich (which i had last night for dinner) in my My little pony lunchbox, and i would sit in the backyard and eat it. Also, when we went to Disney World together and you taped the whole ride of It's a small world because that was always your favorite. The memories go on and on, but now thats all I have left. I've now lost you, Momma and your home, the only place I felt safe. All of these memories are my gifts from you and Momma and i will treasure them forever. It's hard to believe it has almost been 8 months since you left us and now that momma is gone i feel lost. I don't have you or Momma to take care of anymore and it makes me feel empty, but I know now that you and Momma are once again reunited and will be together forever in heaven. Even though our family home is gone, I know when i get up to heaven the house that you and momma made (of course you building it and momma now decorating it) will look exactly the way our home at 6027 Arts st. once looked like. I can't will till my day comes and I will feel like I am home once agan. You take care of my lady bug up there as I know you will and I will see both you and momma again soon.
I love you and miss you both so much!
Jenna
P.S. once again this is not goodbye, but see ya soon.

October 10, 2005
Daddy,
You and momma are finally together again. It has been a tough 8 months with loosing you, the family home during Katrina, and now momma. But, we all knew she needed to be with you and you with her.
She now has a new body and mind and you can dance together again. You know she is the only one that could follow you so well.
Thanks to you and God for allowing us to bring her to my home to die. I am sorry she couldn’t pass away in your home, but at least we were blessed to have her with us as we did you.
We are trying to do everything you taught us and number one is to take care of the family. I think we did that to the best of our ability during this horrible time and I hope you are pleased with the outcome.
I have said so many times that I am happy you aren’t here to see your home and glad that you didn’t have to go through this nightmare. I guess God really knows what he is doing by taking you first to get things ready for momma and then taking her at this time to be in a much better place.
I love you daddy and miss you so much, but as I am typing this I am smiling thinking of you two together again.
I will see you at the new home you have made for your family in heaven.
All my love, always,
Vanessa

October 9, 2005
Daddy,
Your best girl came to you last night and I can just imagine how happy you are to have her with you again.
I could see you, in my mind, holding your hand out for to take and walk with you into your new life together.
We sat here last night and takled about how you two must be dancing together again and how Mother was the only one that could dance with you. You two sure could dance together real pretty.
You and Momma were a good team. You raised your girls to be strong with good backbones. We are all very sad that Mother has left us, but are also happy that she is with your where she belongs.
You know we weren't able to bring her home to her house, but we got to bring her home to Vanessa's. Sine we are all staying with Vanessa, this is home for all of now, so in actuality we did bring her home. We were blessed that we could have her with us like we had you. We were always so afraid that she would die in the nursing home alone. But, I am sure you and God arranged it so we would be blessed to be able to have her with us and to be able to take care of her at the end of her journey to you.
I love you and Momma so much. Like I told you when you left us for your new life, we will be ok but, it will take some time.
Our lives are so upside down now, with the losses from Katrina. But, you and Momma tought us to go on and be strong. And the Braud Girls are strong (although we don't feel very strong right now}.
You have always been the "Wind Beneath My Wings" and I know you will help get me through this as you have helped me all my lfe.
I love you so very much and am happy you and Momma are together again.

So, here it is,
Your first birthday
without us
Or should we say
without you
What are we suppose to do?
We can’t buy you a cake or give you presents
We can’t sing to you or watch you blow out the candles
We can only remember your past birthdays
and visit you at your place of eternal rest.
Today you would have turned 91 and what do we say?
Can we say Happy Birthday Daddy,
or is there something else to say when someone has passed away.
Well, since we don’t have the answers to these and many other questions,
We will do what we have done for years:
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday dear Daddy
Happy birthday to you.
All my love, always,
Vanessa

Happy Birthday Daddy,
I remember last year at your Birthday Dinner. You were so happy and proud that so many people came to celebrate your 91st Birthday.
And what a special day Aug 18 is. It is the day that the most wonderful father that ever lived was born. I celebrate this day as a special gift from God who gave me my wonderful Daddy.
Vanessa, Jenna and I are going to spend some of your Birthday with Momma. We are going to take her to the new Panda King on the Westbank.
I will be there today with a special gift for you. Every word on it is true.
I love you so very much. Thank you for being such a wonderful person and Daddy.

Hi Daddy,
I can't believe you have been gone 6 months already. I sat with you at your grave yesterday at the time you passed onto a better place.
The pain in my heart is still as bad as it was that day in February. I never could imagine my life without you and am still having a hard time not having you here with me. I still have the urge to pick up the phone at 6:30 to call you. I wish I could really hear you voice again. I hear you in my mind all the time. I think of all the great times we had together.
Sid told me he was thinking about yesterday and one of the memories made us both laugh. It was the time we were in the Mississippi River and you and Paw Paw were on the front deck of the boat. A ship passed and Sid warned you two about the wake. About that time wake came over the front of the boat and soaked you both. When you'll turned around the second wake got you'll on the backside. You two looked like "drowned rats". We were all laughing so hard it was painful. We had a lot of real good times on the boat.
I have so many wonderful memories of you and I hold them so close and dear.
I love you and miss you so very much,
Gail

August 16, 2005
Daddy,
I can't believe it's been 6 months since you've been gone. We are carrying on, but it is difficult.
I think of you so much and now I know what a true loss feels like. I just thought you would be around forever. You see, you were suppose to always be there, and I was always suppose to be your little girl.
You know what is in my heart and how much I miss you. I always tell everyone that the reason we cry when we lose someone is because we are selfish. Even though you are in a better place and can hear and walk well and no longer have any pain, I should be happy, but I am crying because I am selfish and want you back here.
I love you daddy and will NEVER stop missing you. I just hope one day the pain will get better and my selfish feelings will go away and I can smile and be happy because I know you are in a much better place.
All my love, always...
Vanessa

Happy 4th of July Daddy!
We went to Troy & Mitzi's today for our traditional 4th of July Bar-B- Que. I know you were looking down on us and saw Troy using the your Bar-B-Que pit. He sure takes after you, the way he enjoys Bar-B-Quing. He is very proud to have the pit you loved and used so much. A part of you still lives on through him.
It was a really nice day today, no rain. Jenna brought Momma and she seemed to enjoy herself. She talked a little and ate pretty good.
It is really hard not having you here with us for these special days, but you are always with me in my heart.
Troy had your ring sized to fit him and had it polished and cleaned. It sure does look pretty and he is so very proud of it.
Good night for now. I love you very much,

Hi Daddy,
Just sitting here at the office waiting for the freight line to pick up a delivery and thinking about you.
I have been really blah today. Brought you some flowers this morning, as I do every Wednesday. I always want you to have fresh flowers. I promised you I would bring you flowers as long as I could and I hope that is a long time.
I think in the near furture I will be bringing flowers to you and Momma. She really misses you and the doctor said she will never adjust to your being gone. 66 years is long time for 2 people to be together. Since you have gone it is like part of Momma is gone too.
Anyway, just want to tell you I love you very much and miss you more than words can say.
Love,
Gail

Hi Daddy,
As you already know we met at you graveside today to read your will and give your gifts out. Terrell is out of the country and could not be there with us. Belinda and Edwin did not come either as they went to Edwin's daughters today.
It was a beautifule day today. Sunny and warm with a little breeze. We cried together and shared some stories that also made us laugh.
I think Troy was over come with emotion when he got your ring and I read your words to him. Little Mitzi was also over come with emotion. They both love you a lot.
Mitzi said you couldn't have left her thing more fitting than your Leo the Lion. She really is proud to have it and she put it on her chain. She told me tonight that it is the perfect rememberance of you since the lion represents you and the way you lived. Alway keeping on and never giving up. The strongest of all.
Vanessa, Jenna and I, love the cuff links and tie tack I had made to wear on a chain. I also gave Jenna one of your chains to wear hers on.
I found some pictures when you were a baby and when you were young. I framed six pictures and gave one to each of us. I think they all were suprised. Everyone will cherish these pictures of you. I know I will.
When we left the cemetary Mitzi, Vanessa, Jenna and I went to King Buffet. We needed to spend some time together. This has been a stressful day for us all, being the first Fathers Day your are gone from us.
I love you Daddy,
Gail

Happy Fathers Day Daddy. I can't tell you that I am happy today, I feel so empty without you here.
I am following your wishes and we are meeting at your grave today for me to read your will and give the items you said you wanted your family to have. You told me to pick the time and place and I couldn't think of a better time than Fathers Day and a better place than beside your grave. I know you are not accutally there but it makes me feel closer to you when I am there. You know I also have a surprise for your girls and grandsons, because you know everything now. Actually, you knew everything when you were still with us. We could never "pull the wool" over on you.
Today will be tough on all of us. We all know you are in a better place than us, but that does not stop us from missing you terribly.
Momma is not doing to good. I know she is greaving for you. It is time for her to be with you in heaven. God needs to take her home to be with you, so she can be happy and laugh and smile again. She doesn't laugh like she did before. Her little eyes are so sad.
We will be at your grave at 4pm today. Please, help me be strong enough to do what I need to do today. I lost the "Wind Beneath My Wings" so help me today to carry out your wishes.
I love you and miss you terribly.
Happy Fathers Day,

It's hard to believe it's Father's Day and you aren't here. It feels very strange to say the least. I miss you so much and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you.
Momma misses you so much. She needs to be with you. I pray God and you will come and take her soon. She belongs with you.
Thank you for being such a wonderful father. There is no other like you.

Hi Daddy,
Just sitting here at the office thinking of you. I sure do miss you.
Brought you flowers yesterday, but couldn' go till after work because Sid didn't go to the office.
Sometimes in the evening I still have the urge to pick up the phone and call you, but then I remember I can't. Wish I could talk to you just one more time.
Took Spiderman with me to your grave last week. He does think the would of you. He told me the other day that he sure misses calling you in the afternoon. He also told me that he respected you because were a man of your word. He said he told you something he didn't want you to tell anyone. He said you went to your grave with his secret and for that he respects you even more than he did.
You always told us that there one thing you come into the world with that no one but yourself can take away from you and that is your Word. You always kept your word no matter what. You were and always will be a Great Man of Your Word.
I love you and miss you so much,

Daddy,
I just wanted to say that i love you and miss you so much. I can't believe that you are not here with me anymore, and all i have left are the memories of all the things we did together. I think the hardest thing for me to do is go into your house and see your favorite chair and know i will never see you in it again physically. ( i see you in it all the time in my mind) Also, going through all of you things because you know as well i know that i want to save everything, but i know I can't. I am starting your photo album today so I will always have somthing to look at when i need to see you. I miss you more than I ever thought i would. I love you daddy Paw. This is not goodbye, just see ya later.

P.S. Even though your life is over here, your life in heaven has just begun.

April 17, 2005
Daddy,
I still can't believe that you are gone, and that it has already been 2 months. I know the good lord is protecting me because on my way home Saturday night (the 2 month date of your death - April 16, 2005) I was thinking about you again (as usual) and work called and I had to go back in. It must be his way (or your way) of refocusing me when I am about to lose it. Of course I came home exhausted, but I was able to smile through my tears knowing that you are in heaven and finally have a new body and eyes that work perfectly.
I put an ad in Jenna's dancing book from you and momma, and even though it's the hardest thing I ever had to write, I think it says what you want her to know.
We all are still trying to work through this, but it's very difficult.
We are keeping our promise to you to take good care of momma, but we know she misses you and her heart is very sad.
I so can't wait to see you again. In the mean time, keep watching over us because we still need you old man.
I love you,
Vanessa

Hi Daddy,
It is 8 weeks today since you went home to Heaven. It doesn't seem that long.
When I brought you your flowers today the man had just finished engraving you name on the headstone. Some how that made it seem more final. I was happy your name is finally there, but very sad also.
I miss you so much, wish I could pick up the phone and call you to hear your voice again.
I love you so much and miss you, my heart just aches.
I made a cd of some of your favorite songs and play it most of the time when I am driving. Maybe you can hear your songs with me. I hope so.
I know you are looking down on me, that consoles me some, but I still can't believe you are gone.
You truly were always "The Wind Beneath My Wings" Now that you are not here I am flying so go.
I love you and miss you,
All my love,

I can hardly believe you are gone, let alone that you have been gone a month already. I miss you more than I ever imagined I could miss you. I miss talking to you every night about this time.

I'll love you always,

To those of you who know Gail deLeon (a/k/a "Queen of Delta"), we got news today through fellow Delta Region member, John Hartsock, that Gail deLeon's father (Harold Braud) passed away.
If you are interested, the wake is tomorrow (Friday) night at Jacob Schoen Funeral Home, 3827 Canal Street, New Orleans. (Telephone: 504-482-2111) from 6pm - 10pm.
Hartsock asked if we could get the word out for Gail. I know Gail, Sid, and their family appreciate your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
