Dad,
It's almost been a year now since the last time I got to see you, talk with you, laugh with you, hug you, and hold your hand and some how it still feels unreal. I sometimes feel like I am still in a nightmare that I haven't woken up from, it's much harder than I thought it was going to be without you here. It sucks not having you here anymore to run and tell my problems or achievments to or to just tell you I love you. Your grand daughter still mentions you once in a while which leads me to believe you visit us once in a while, I hope that you are proud of us. That is one of the things I miss the most is how you would ask about everything going on and be so openly and genuinely happy for me and proud of me your reaction to everything always kept me motivated. There is not a single day that passes that I don't think about you and miss you my heart will forever have a huge piece missing until I get to see you again. Please continue to watch over your grand daughter and I as well as the rest of the family. I love you more than I could ever explain through words see you later dad!! <3

Ive been friends with Tony for 17 years, but havent seen him for at least 2. On New Years I said "Anybody seen Pizza Tony, Im going to have to track him down, I havent seen him in forever!" Then I hear the news. Tony was a good guy, a stand up guy, he stuck his neck out for me more than once. Too soon,old friend, too soon. My heartfelt condolences to the many loved ones he left behind.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
