I still missing you, Daddy. It has been 5 years since you left me and not a day passes that I don't think of you. You were a super fantastic father and I want the world to know how great you are! Although you are at peaceful rest, your memories remain in my heart. Only you, Daddy for you is more precious than pure gold. I pray to the Holy Spirit to tell you "I miss you Daddy" messages and "Wish you were here with me." I just want to say that my love for you Daddy will never die. Missing you, Daddy. My Hero. My Champion. My Undisputed. My Untouchable. My Strength. Father's Day 2024.

Happy Birthday Daddy! I love you and miss you so much! Although you have been gone from me a whole year, and according to 2 Peter 3:8, you have only been with the Lord only for a few seconds! Wow, what a wonderful time It Must Be! Glory to God! I Want To Be Where You Are! Dwelling in His presence! Feasting at His table and surrounded by His glory! Hallelujah! You are in His presence and that is where I always want to be! I JUST WANT TO BE WITH YOU! Oh, my God you are my strength when I am weak and when I'm in Your presence, it's You that makes me strong!

So, Daddy, I light this candle in memory of you, my Father, my Mentor, my Champion, my Very Best Friend! I love you Daddy! Will see you soon! Meet me on the shores with the holy angels! Love you!

A Memoir of My Daddy

Kaye Kirkpatrick

January 19, 2018

Daddy it has been now 8 days, and I still find it hard to believe or even fathom what has taken place in the natural. I have so much exasperation on my heart about so much that has gone down. As I believed God for your healing, I am even frustrated that you let go. Daddy, I wanted you to live on and longer with me. I wanted you to be her for me, and watch me transform, for you know I do it well, just like my Daddy! I wanted you to be even more proud of me. I wanted you with me again, so I could take better care of you. I wanted my grandbabies to know you as I know you. I wanted them to experience your love, and goodness, and happy times you have given me throughout the years. Essentially, I wanted them to experience the Blessing from my priest, my earthly father.
I had so much faith and hope that you would come out a winner again, but your affections were set on those things above, and I understand. You are indeed heaven's winner, for you have made it over in glory, and I rejoice with you and the holy angels! Hallelujah! Yes, I also see the Chet and the Yod, glory to God! Everlasting Life! Hallelujah! God is so faithful!
Daddy, I'm missing you today. I will always miss my super-human Daddy until the day I will see you again. There are times where it becomes physically unbearable to know that you are no longer here with me. But the champion you placed within me quickly calls on its Help, and I am able to press in, and move on, and remain strong in the hope of the high calling in Christ Jesus, knowing that I will be with you again.
Daddy I love you and appreciate your endless labor in my life and in the lives of my children. Rest well champion, rest well. I will see you soon. With much hope, faith and love. Waiting patiently.

Oh God, where do I begin......how about the time you allowed your kids to have a party and Jackie spiked the punch with your liquor, or after you'd put in a hard days work, your kids friends had to scatter......how about you being one giant of a man to the point where it seems the earth shook when you walked......and who would have thought all you wanted was the very best for your kids. Life, it seems turned you into a gentle giant, maybe you always were, but to a 14 year old kid, I just couldn't see it at the time. To the entire family, please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you as you mourn the loss of a great father, grandfather, and great grandfather. Love you all!! We will always have the memories.
