Not sure what to say?

Daddy it seems like yesterday you left me. I think about you every day, and I miss you so much still. I had the same heart surgery you had, and at the same hospital you had yours in. I guess you can say I am a true DeLoach. I love you and I know I will see you again. Your daughter that truly loves you. Love, Gigi

Daddy, I love and miss you so much. I am approaching the 2nd anniversary of your passing on 01-06-2018. There hasn't been one day, that I haven't thought about you during the day somewhere or sometime in my day. I pray you are happy being back together with your Parents, Mom and Darlene. I've try to remember all you've taught me, and I've kept our family traditions the same, as you asked me to do...just so different w/o you here. I know I will see you again, and I will join our family...

Condolences to the Deloach family regarding your loss. May God comfort you and give you peace.
(2nd Corinthans 1:3, 4)
