I miss you Pops and I love you dearly! The kids ask about you every day and remind me constantly that being with angels is really a good place to be. I know that is true, but it doesn't take the place of having you here with us. Troy tells me every day that he has to go take care of Steve. He says that Steve has done so much to take care of you that it's time for someone to take care of him. It's amazing the things that kids can say that always manage to make you smile. I can't wait to see you again, and I know that day will come. Until then, know that we love you with all of our hearts. I love you and miss you.

Dad I love you with all my heart and soul. Wish we had more time together. But someone else had plans for you. I know you are in a much better place even though there is a huge hole left in my heart. I know you are watching over us and keeping us safe. One day we will meet again, with angels all around. Give grandma and grandpa a kiss from me and know all our memories will live long in my heart. We will meet again someday. Till then I LOVE YOU!
Your daughter, Robin
