Daniel,
It is hard to believe that it has been six years since your homegoing. Maddax is 8 ½ and in AIG classes. Your brother is doing what he loves best. Daddy is still taking care of all of us at home. I am enjoying my job with Wells Fargo in the HR department. I love what I do. However, I sure miss you. I know you are having a wonderful time in the Lord. I long to see you, hug you and kiss you cheek. Soon, son, soon, I will see you again. To say I miss you is an understatement. When I cook, I miss you. When holidays come, I miss your excitement and help. Oh you would have so much fun with Maddax. He is a ‘gamer' and is so smart and logical. We are so blessed to have him here.

Until I see you again, I love you, Mom

Good Morning Daniel,

Today is your fourth anniversary of your homegoing. Boy, I miss you. Your Dad misses you. And, Dale misses you so much!!! Dale has a new job and Maddax is in the first grade. Maddax is on the Y's football team and made the first field goal for the team. He is beginning to lose his teeth. And believe it or not, Maddax has found Dragonball Z; your favorite program. Last night I heard him as his dad if he thought Uncle Dan might have Vegeta in his collection. LOL! You would enjoy him.

We are so fortunate to have Maddax. He partly fills the void since we are so busy with him. But, he is growing fast!

Well my son, I ask the Lord to tell you hello from me and tell you that I love you; and of course, that I will see you soon. After seeing Jesus, I would love you to show me around.

I know you are happy, healthy and healed.

Love you more than I have words,

Mom

Good Morning Daniel; today is your birthday. 10 years ago, for your 21st birthday, your dad and I took you to Greensboro's Chop House. We spent over $200 for just the three of us. I know you and your dad had beef; I had chicken. But, it was the dessert I remember - Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Truffles. Daniel, you when nuts over the truffles. I am so glad we have good memories. Today, we will go to Red Lobster and have some lobster rolls, which is a favorite of yours. You could never eat all you ordered. But, I did not care, you could order the house and it would be fine with me. And whatever you ordered, you always had a lobster tail as an add-on. I know some would look at the waste of food. But, if I could not fill your belly, I could always fill your eyes and heart with satisfaction.

Happy Birthday Son. At 12:12pm EDT, here on planet earth, you will turn 31. You were such an easy birth. But, no wonder, I felt good the entire time I carried you near my heart. You have always been kind and thoughtful of others before yourself. Why, your first words were – Thank you.
I miss you so very much. I miss your hugs, smile and laugh. I look forward to seeing you again.

Jesus, please tell Daniel, I love him and miss him and hope to see him again soon. Hug Daniel for me. And tell him his green hat is still on the clock.

I love you, Mom

Daniel, I was on the road a few minutes back of where I was on October 17th last year. Mom and I were coming back from Winston. I told Mom earlier that I feel empty but joyful. Those are two feelings that normally do not go together. I sure do miss you and the little 'things'. Dale has had a hard time this week. Maddax even said that he misses 'Uncle Dan'. When we say our prayers..God bless Mommy, Daddy, Maddax, MawMaw, PawPaw...And Jesus, say hello to Uncle Dan for us. Daniel, if we did not have the BLESSED Hope the Lord gives us all of this year would have been to much to bare. The Lord has been faithful. Jesus, tell my precious baby boy, I love him, miss him and am looking forward to seeing him...soon. Thank you Lord for caring for my son!!!

Again, just to say I love you seems so few words to tell you just how much I DO love you.

Hey Daniel, Its a little after 1am and I was sitting here thinking of you. I was cleaning out a closet the other day and found a gift bag which you gave me. It still had the name tag on it (maybe it was the time you gave us all "Spam" for Christmas). I carry that tag with me always...Kinda silly I know but I miss you so much. I can't wait to see you again. I LOVE YOU!!!

Daniel, in one hour, it will be 9 months since you went home to be with the Lord. I miss you. We all miss you! Maddax wants you to come home. I told him one day we will go see you. He knows you are with Jesus. Each night, when we ask the Lord to bless everyone, Mommy-Daddy-MawMaw-PawPaw-Maddax-Grandma-Grandpa, we ask Jesus to say Hello to Uncle Dan for us. My sweet son, until then, know I love you.

Daniel, this is Mom. It has almost been five months since your homegoing. I rejoice that you are with the Lord. But, I must admit, I miss you. I love you dear and look forward to seeing you one precious day. Lord, please tell my precious Daniel, I am happy he is no longer sick, he has friends and he is happy. I miss him, love him and cannot wait to see him again. Thanks Lord

Lynn,
I am so sorry to hear the sad news about your son...I was shocked off my feet...Steve Mabe sent me email this morning informing me of your loss. I just did not pay close attention to the obits in the paper over the weekend...so I didn't relate the name to you.
You and your family are certainly in my prayers at this time.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Tom
