Guest Book

Not sure what to say?

What a nice surprise today, seeing the guest book arrive in my email! I was just thinking of Carl the other day. He sure was a great guy, so helpful, so kind. I remember once, at one of GMAC's Christmas parties, he asked me to dance. I could not pick up my feet! Carl was very patient and never laughed at my incoordination. Thank you, Carl, for that. Love and miss you, my friend.

Hi Honey- It's been over a year since you left us and every single day you are remembered and talked about. I have been trying to get the house taken care of. I think you would approve of the decisions I've made (well, maybe not the pink powder room) but I wish you'd been here to share in it all. Oh well, I am sure you can see it from where you are. You have a bird's eye view! Your dad is doing well and is being well taken care of. I miss you so much but you will always be a part of me. The...

Desiree and I had the opportunity to spend time with Tami while looking through your "retirement" collections. It was wonderful to spend time with Tam-Tam; hearing stories about you, talking and laughing. Josh and I look SO forward to using the ornaments and the memories they will help us create. All the items will be displayed with pride. We can't send you a thank you note, but hoped you may "check your mail". You are such a special man and your memory continues to be a source of joy for...

Happy Valentines Day!! Before the sun came up this morning I looked at the sky and it was just full of the brightest stars I had seen in months. I know you had something to do with that! You always made February 14th a special day for me and I loved trying to come up with something new for you every year. So today was a sad one but I know it's your mom's birthday and it's the first time in many, many years you have been able to spend the day with her. So, I send hugs and kisses to you (and...

I didn't write at Christmas because I was filled with so many emotions. You loved the hoidays so much, you were like a big kid! I miss you so much but I know you had a wonderful Christmas in Heaven. Everyone made sure your dad had a good holiday and we will continue to keep an eye on him for you. I wish I could say more, I just miss you so much. I love you Honey!

Christmas has come and gone and we truly missed having you here to exchange gifts and play games. I set a small tree upstairs, full of your ornaments. So, in a way, you were with us. We miss you honey, you will always be in our hearts.

Yesterday was our anniversary and I missed you like mad. But I felt you around me and we'll get caught up on all of our celebrating when we're together again! I love you Honey!

Today is my 55th birthday and I can't help thinking that you won't be here to help me celebrate. I know that you and my Mom are here in spirit. This Friday night would be a Baskin Robbins cake night for sure! Celebrate for me! How about a little Lindy Hop with my Mom? We love you Honey!

OK, you got the song (a bit out of tune if you listened very closely). I thought of you all day on your 51st birthday...shed a few tears but smiled more often. I remember one year ago you and your dad came to Gladstone to celebrate "the November family birthdays" and ended up having your car towed home due to car trouble (we would learn later that, of course, you were really...
