Not sure what to say?

Year 5 since you left this world, and the void is still huge! You are loved and missed more than you will ever know. Love you Dad to infinity and beyond. Your Little Mother

This day in unrest, Pulls hearts from our chests. Like a hollowed nest, Once song filled with guests. He came and he stood, As no one else could. In Father, soldier, and Doctor's hoods. Investing his life in all , to make good. He now rests entombed, In Arlington's womb. With countless rowed soldiers, Whose memories loom. Four years we now miss, The wit of his grist. His laughter and kiss, Once again reminisced. With great love, Moria

I cannot believe 4 years have gone by. You are always remembered and tears still flow. I miss you dad more than ever. Life will never be the same without you here. Love you. Say hello to God for me The little mother

Hey Dad. I am feeling your absence significantly today. I think of you often and miss you beyond words.

This three year absence Makes my heart yearn to know, Why does a great soul, Vanish through a black hole. While we weep in silence, With emptiness hence, Wishing voids could be filled, By a sign recompense. We might hear him say, That it shudders the day. To grieve in dismay, As his breath gave way. Remember we do, The greatest DadDU! His palpable love, Pierces all from Above! In loving memory Now and always, Your daughter Maria

Dad, I can't believe the year anniversary of your demise is already upon us. It seems like yesterday and an eternity all at one time. Your absence is felt daily. I miss hearing your response of ,"not bad for an old guy" when I ask you how you are. I miss squishing you and knowing you are just a phone call away. I love you and miss you so much!

As one of his devoted children, I can say without doubt, having him as a father was more than a remmarkable experience.
My Daddu, as I called him, was inspiring on so many levels. He was devoted to his family, to an exemplary degree. He had a passion for song, Spanish guitar, a very dry martini, and fine food and wine. He explored gourmet food preparation, and was always willing to bring the party home!

Dear Paula,
Allen and I were saddened to read of Ariel's passing. He was a good man and an excellent surgeon. He always seemed cheerful and happy. I still remember the day the two of you came to my office to tell me that you were getting married! I was so excited for both of you.

I know that this is a sad time, unfortunately part of the life cycle. I hope that you can be comforted by all the many years you had together.
Our love to you,
Bonnie and Allen Weikel
