Dad, I just love you. And thank you for visiting me in my dreams. I am so proud to be part of such an awesome family. Your mom is so wonderful and our relationship as her grand daughter has grown stronger. I will say this until I am black and blue, I am so glad God chose you to be my father, raise me, love me, bond with me, grow with me and be a grandpa. I miss you everyday of every minute of every second. I am true a testament of how good God is. He picked you for our family. I am forever grateful. Amen.

In the 11 years I knew David he was so great. He was the first person 8 met in my wifes family. His goofiness and outgoing personality will surely be missed by us all. I love you Elizabeth and will help you through this. I am so glad we went and spent 2 weeks with him. Those memories will be cherished for the rest of my life.
