Dear Dad. I want you to know you were the best Dad a daughter could ever hope for. You were always there for me whenever I needed you. You were so knowledgeable about everything in life. You had a talent to fix anything and do projects in our house that turned it into a home. Your love for Mom was so inspiring and that love flowed over into the 4 of us. Your love has turned me into the woman I am today. I will miss our nightly father/daughter talks. You were my shoulder to lean on, and cry on as I go through this journey of loosing Keith. Two weeks ago, we had the nicest conversation about love, and family and loosing a spouse. Family was always number one in your life. You promised me that night that I was going to be fine. I'll cherish that conversation forever. I'm glad that you finally got your wish to be with Mom. Now you truly are together forever. Please look down from heaven, and continue to guide us. I will always love and miss you Dad. I'll always be your "little peanut."

Dear Dad. I want you to know that you were the best Dad a girl could ever ask for. You were always here for me whatever I needed. You were so knowledgable about everything in life and you knew how to fix anything. :-) you were so talented with house projects and making our house a home. The love you had for Mom was inspiring, which spilled over into the love you had for the 4 of us. Family was always your number one priority in life. I'm going to miss our nightly Dad/daughter talks we had. You were always there to listen and be my shoulder to cry on. Two weeks ago, we had the nicest conversation about life, family and loosing a spouse. You promised me that I was going to be okay and one day be reunited with Keith in heaven. I will cherish that conversation in my heart forever. I'm so glad you finally got your wish to be with Mom. Now you truly are together forever. I love you Daddy. I'll always be "your little peanut"

Dearest Dad, you were the best father a girl could ever ask for. You were always here for me whatever I needed. Your kindness, knowledge of everything and anything was amazing. Your family was always number one in your life. Your love for mom was a blessing. That love for mom and the 4 of us, molded me into the woman I am today. All the lessons you taught me about life, love and family will guide me through the roller coaster of my life. I will miss our nightly daddy/daughter talks. You were my shoulder to cry on when Keith, the love of my life passed. In the last two weeks of your life, you promised me I would be okay. I will forever hold that conversation in my heart. I love you Daddy and I'm so happy you finally got your wish to be with mom. Together forever. I love you Daddy and I will forever be your "little peanut"
