Not sure what to say?

I thought it´d be easier by now. Love you pop

Today is your birthday, woke up and thought about it as I sipped my coffee. It's amazing how you float in and out of every single day. My good fortune. Each day leading up to today I mentally noted October 1st is Dad's birthday. As I'm sure Ido every year. I still remember the tiny details about your appearance, thankfully they are etched into my soul. The way your arm hair wrapped around your watchband. Your eyes when you smiled. You would shrug at the notion, but your eyes lit up when you...

....as the story goes..years have passed..yet memories of our life as brother /sister together with Jim are etched into my heart...We survived somehow, our humor and devotion to each other intact! I trust Jim is there with you, Till we are three again..sending all the love...Ann

Andy Gwinnup, my beloved brother. I find comfort knowing you and Jim are together, reminiscing over coffee and watching over all of us that loved you so dearly. A lifetime shared is my good fortune. Memories..... priceless.

Andy,
One year has passed. Jim and I carry on, but three was such a good number.
Your memory will live on in our hearts till we meet again.

Analisa,
I'm so sorry to hear about your pop. I'm familiar with that pain. "He who is not in the body, is in the presence of our Lord and Savior." Take refuge in His everlasting love and comfort. Your daddy is now surrounded by God's Glory.

Andy, my brother, my friend. I know you're with us when I smell good coffee, when your children carry on with your humor and kindness, when Jim stands beside me, when all those who loved you sent messages or gathered in your name. Our journey was priceless, I'm grateful for every minute. Till we meet again, rest in peace, Jim and I will carry on.
Love, Ann

Dear Gwinnup Children,
My heart is with all of you. I know your love for your Father runs very deeply, he is a part of your very own being. In return, I also know his Love runs very deeply for his children. Andy was a very unique man with a very dry sense of humor. He brought a smile to many. He was very loyal to his children, and his only expectation of his children was to be good persons, I know that expectation has been met. He did, and still does love you with all his being. He...

Ashlee,
So sorry to hear about you Dad. I know how much you will miss him, as I have lost my Dad, also. Want to let you know I am thinking of you, and sending you a hug.
Love, Nina
