Dad..you are my Hero,My Superman,My Friend,My FATHER. It is so difficult to know that I can never give you that last kiss and look into your eyes to tell you how much you mean to me and how I know you have to go to a place where you wont hurt anymore,a place where you can walk around once again on your own,and hopefully see your Grand and Great~grand children grow and "play ball",and succeed in life. I wont hear you ask me if I'm still talking,see you and Mom dance, just see you laugh or joke. I think of you Every single day.I just miss you so much. So they say; "We Will" see eachother again, but I need you to talk to whom-ever is in charge up there, about "visiting hours" and such. I am waiting at "The Stairway To Heaven" to see you. Forevever & A Day ~ I Love You ~ Your Daughter ~ Lisa
