Daddy, There are no words to define the pain, sorrow, loss and mass devastation that I'm feeling right now. I feel like someone has ripped my heart out of my chest and crushed it. If there was anything in this world that I could do to have you here with me, it would be done. I didn't even get to say good-bye. Love you 4 ever!!!!!!

Daddy, Words cannot express the void that we feel by your passing.
The smell of your Cherry Blend pipe tobacco, the Hot Sauce on the lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes and onions and most of all that little under your breath chuckle that always made us laugh. Your candy drawer that always had what we wanted in it.
Your sweaty baseball caps and the big ole hugs that only a daddy and grandaddy can give. We Love You Forever.
