Dear daddy, you were loved by so many people, kids, your family, friends, and people tht barely knew you that you could shine in their hearts and how them how great of a person you are. When I was angry you always made me laugh no matter how mad you made me, but it always worked. You came to every soccer game I had, might of not always been on time but you were there. You brought me to all I my tournaments even when they were far, and might of been a hassle but you always took on the responsibility. I miss you so much each and every day. I love the dreams I have of you they're always the best start to my day. I can't wait for the day where I can see you and get that big hug and kiss that always made everything better. I love you most I said it first Ill always be your little girl -Kayla

Dear Henry,
We just celebrated another Christmas and. New years with out you here. I miss you so much. The kids are growing up so fast. Ashley 22 yrs old. Kayla 18 and going to college living away from home. I know you would have had a hard time with her being. Away.. I can see you driving many many miles to go be with her. Because that is how loving you were with your children.
They need to grow, but it's hard to let go.. Ashley has plans for her future and I hope things work out the way she wants.. She is the Best Big sister to all the kids.. She is a take charge person like her daddy. I know how proud you have always been of both Ashley and Kayla..
Brayden still does everything you taught him like Mike says,,He is your mini me.. He is so much like you were when you were little.. Paul saw the old picture of Gramma and Grandpa, and he says he sees Brayden in Grandpa so much.. Like I always said you looked just like Grandpa as well
Baby. Jaylynn isn't a baby anymore.. She is almost 3yrs old..but omg she is so smart. She talks and acts like a grown up. You can see from some of the gestures she makes who she is getting things from.. She is so sweet. A pleasure to be with as well as the rest of your children. Henry you would be proud..
I just pray everyday that you were still here enjoying life with us.. Oh yes I forgot..Jaylynn just loves playing with your dad,, like all the kids do.. I think it's because he is a big kid himself at times..Christmas she just wanted to stay out with him playing.. She wore him out . LoL
Last night Mike had a New Years Eve party. Just a small group of friends and our family and the kids. Jammy from Ventura came and she mentioned how she remembered how you always asked where's Cody when ever you were signing in at the races.. She said how it was special and something she won't ever forget..
I told her that is because you loved kids so much. And how no matter what you treated all kids special.. I am so proud to have you as my son..I. Love. You with all my Heart.
Starting a new year now 2013 and I'm going to get healthy for sure..I can't live like this.
Someone told me the other day,that you are ok. That. God will always take care of any believers children. I do feel that you are with our loved ones who have left this world here and are together in a better place..we will all be together again one day.. I can't wait to be with you all again. But knowing you are together gives me peace..I. Love. You. Most,,I said it First...
Your. Mom

Henry, I am late in wishing you a Happy Birthday here in this book. The whole family went to dinner in HONOR of Your 40th Birthday. We Miss you so much. Baby J is walking and is alwmost 1 year. Brayden is closest to your dad. He is always happiest to see him.. I believe he sees you in him and remembers the times you and dad spent with just the 3 of you.. He is you all over again. Not just because we want to see you in your children, He just is you in so many ways..
Your girls Love and Miss you so very much. They will always be your little girls as you always told them they would be. I just wish that you knew how much so many loved you and needed you. I cry everyday praying to our Lord to bring you back to us. I want to wake up and have this all be a bad dream.. I still can't believe you are not here..
Everytime something happens I go to pick up the phone to call you and share with you what ever it is going on in our lives, like we all did with each other..Henry you are and will always be a special son and speical person. I loved the little boy and also the Man you became. I just wish you had known how important having you in our loves was. I wish I had said more and loved you more. I wish I hugged you more.I wish I could hold on to you and NEVER let you go.. It hurts so much that I can't do that anymore.. You were the BEST son and so loyal to us.. I Love You More than words can say.. Your Mom

Dear Henry:
This is an especially sad day in that it is your Birthday. The first Birthday without you here with your family. Uncle Roy and I went to visit your grave today. We hope and pray that all your Children, Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother, Nieces, Nephews, Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins will feel the love you have for them all. I know how much your family meant to you and how much it must have hurt you to leave them. You will always be in our hearts. Happy 40th Birthday Henry. We Love you!!! Aunt Janet and Uncle Roy

Dear Henry
I went to see you at the viewing. I said a prayer for you and said goodbye. I never thought i would have to say goodbye to you this early in life and it breaks my heart to know you won't be here for all the things that make this world beautiful. You won't be here physically but you will live forever in the hopes and dreams of your children as well as the hearts of all that knew you and loved you. I pray that god will protect your little angels from any pain or hurt in this world their shoulders cannot bear and grant them the peace and serenity to find all the beauty and love this world has to offer. They will miss you everyday but hopefully they can find comfort when they look in one another's faces and see your smile, or the shine in their eyes that is so characteristic of their father. Life is filled with so many obstacles but as god's precious gifts on this earth your children will live life and love life cherishing your beautiful memory. They will remember you when they graduate college, they will hold on to your love when they get married and begin families of their own and they will see your amazing soul in the grandchildren they will give you. Always know they will never forget how much you love them and you will remain a part of their lives forever.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Don't think of him as gone away--
his journey's just begun,
life holds so many facets--
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living in the hearts of those he touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost--
and he was loved so much.
This was sent to me for comfort, from a dear friend Barbara Priestly. It does help.. Smile

Henry, you will never know how much you are loved. Jordyn and Brody did not see you very often but you left an everlasting memory in their hearts with the love that you shared with them. I am sorry you never got to meet Mason and that he will never be held by you. My heart breaks knowing how much you will be missed. Rest in peace. I love you. You are always just a thought away.

My prayers are with your family specially your kids. You will be missed very much. I think of you every day. I feel like your all around us. Every time I see a red bull can, it brings back memories. And I remember last time we went camping and something was broken you busted out your duck tape and said duck tape can fix anything. It looked ghetto but it worked! :) I just wished I could of been more help. I didn't realized it was that bad. I'm sorry it had to be this way. But I'm also glad your at peace now. I will make a promise to you and Steph... I will be there for baby J and Brayden if they need anything. And to my BFF Steph I'm here for you too. May you rest in peace. Love ya, Theresa

Henry, You are missed so much. I wish I could wake up and have this all be a bad dream. We would have done anything for you. I wish you had known that. I know you knew how much you were loved. I thought your kids would be enough to make you want to stay here with us. It is not supose to be this way, no one is supose to bury their kids. I want you back so bad. Life is a void without you Henry. Our family will never be the same with out you. There are so many things we talked about, but too many things never said. I love you so very much. I keep remembering when they brought you to me when when you were first born. I couldn't believe you were mine. We pretty much grew up together, I was so young when I had you. I LOVE YOU MOST, I SAID IT FIRST.. BIG BIG HUGSSS. NEVER LETTING GO.....MOM
