Hi Dad. A year has almost gone by and yet I still cry because I miss and love you so much. I wish I could of spent more time with you. Everyday there is something that reminds me of you. You didn't say much, but when you did you would make everyone laugh without meaning to. I can still see the big smile on your face when you would dance. You made me smile. I remember when Mom and I had the stomach flu at the same time, you stayed home from work and took care of us. You made us soup and you got me a pack of menthal cigarettes. You did it, because you love us. I couldn't ask for a better Dad. Mom misses and loves you so very much. She feels like a half of person, because her other half is gone. If you run into Steve, Mary, and/or Grandpa give them a hug and let them know that I love and miss them. Have a Merry Christmas with Jesus. I will be seeing you again when God is ready for me. Love you.

Hi Daddy, I was just wondering if you got to see Gramps-Mary-and everyone. If you do can you tell everyone that I Love them. Mom is really having a hard time without you. She cries for you every day. I also cry for you,but if I think about the last few times that I seen you,I start laughing. You always made me laugh. I really miss that.You were always the laugh of the party. You touched everyone with your laughter and jokes and your dancing was the best. I hope you are dancing for God. ILOVE YOU DADDY!

Hi Daddy, Sorry I haven't wrote to you in awhile. And I don't have any excuse that would justify not taking the time to write to you. Mom wants me to tell you that she Loves you and she wants you back here with her. She isn't doing very well since you passed. I also wish you were here, I Love and miss you so much Dad. Well our time to talk is coming to an end. I will still talk to you but I will just do it in another way. I will never forget you, you will always be in my heart. I will write you again before our time is up. I LOVE YOU DADDY
