My heart is heavy and the tears flow down my face. I know you are at rest now Dad. But that doesn't make it any easier to have you gone from this world. I miss you and love you more then words can say. You were the best Dad a girl could ask for. You and Mom have always been there for me..... I hold you close to my heart. Thank you Dad, for being you.
