David Arthur Chadwick

Hello David,
I've been thinking of you a lot lately and wanted you to know how you are truly missed. Everyday that goes by, I have beautiful thoughts of you. Thank God for those precious memories of our years we had together. We always found something to laugh and smile about. But, it was you who had that special laugh and smile that brought sunshine to any room you were in. God gave you that gift, and I was fortunate to have been that recipient. I'll always love you.
Loved you...

Dearest David,
I continue to miss you with all my heart. I wish you were here to enjoy Cortney's baby boy and now Emily has had a boy too. They are both so handsome. There are some issues with the nation, concerning an awful virus that has no solid cure. I'm trying to be careful, as President Trump has advised us all to stay in small groups, no more than 10 people in a gathering. Anyway, it's a little scary, but we will get through this. We will prevail. Always know, my beloved...

Hello Sweetheart,
I'm still hanging in there, missing your beautiful face and US. It doesn't seem like a year has gone by. It still seems like a couple of months since you've been gone. I graduated with honors and received my Associates in Liberal Arts Degree on May 17, 2019. I'm going to finish the Associate in Science this year. You are with me always, and I wouldn't be able to go on with this education, had it not been for your inspiring encouragement and your love. I will continue to...

Hello David,

I just wanted to write and let you know that I am starting the 2 math classes this week. Hopefully, the classes will go well.

Love You Always,
Raini

Dear David,
There was a little hurdle getting through our 30th wedding anniversary, on May 14, but I got through it. I miss you sooooo very much. I look at things that made us laugh together. I look at your favorite movies. I look at some of your clothes. I think of the times we did things that were special to the both of us. I decided to write in this book to help get me through some rough times. Thanksgiving Day has passed, and we usually spent that time with Bobby and his...

I must have been about 6 or 7, and we were at Cedar Point. Dad was in a hurry to leave, and I couldn't keep up. So, he had me hold onto his back pocket. Keeping up was easier, until I tripped and ripped his pocket off his pants.

I love you Dad,
Cortney

I remember riding on the back of Dad's scooter with him to go to his favorite Chinese restauant, Happy Wok, to pck up our To-Go order. And of course they knew what he wanted before he even said anything.

I remember Dave's personality and humor.
He and I hit it off right away. Dave urged me to go ice fishing up at Derek's, and boy, did we have a great time. It was everything he said it was. Good Fishing, Food, and Fellowship.

I will truly miss my friend Dave and will always remember the good times we had.

One time Grandpa and Grandma visited me at School in La Crosse, Wisconsin. We visited a Candy Shop, the Bluff, and the Dahl Auto Museum. Grandpa asked me what I was planning to do with a degree in art. I honestly had no idea, and I was afraid he was going to tease me. Instead, he told me I could do whatever I wanted. He meant it. Not many people believe in being successful with an art degree, but Grandpa did. I will never forget that moment... or day.
