Daddie, I will miss you! It is very hard for me to let you go; I realize that you are now without pain and suffering and wanting you here with me is me only being selfish. I love you with all my heart. Afterall, you were the first man in my life to capture my heart hold my hand and show me love. I will forever hold you close to my heart. Until we meet again...All my love...your daughter "T"
