David Wingert

Dearest Dave, Easter is once again around the corner. I can´t quite bring myself to celebrate it. I think of you every time I go to the farm and I still look to answer my phone on that first ring on my birthday, thinking it might be you. I miss you big brother. We have quite the family gathering in heaven right now. I hope you, Mommy, Daddy and the rest of our loved ones who have moved on have a beautiful Easter Sunday feasting beside the risen savior. Until we see each other again, dear...

Dear sweet Dave, It has now been 3 long years since you have been gone. My heart aches and I would give anything to get one of your funny phone calls...just to hear your voice. I have been reminiscing about our childhood days..."Mr. Wingert" and "Mr. George"... climbing the hay wagon pretending it was Swiss cheese... all the time spent pretending we were in the Land of the Giants... climbing trees...hide and seek... riding bikes... swinging from the rope swing in the barn... trying to see...

My loving, sweet, funny brother - I can´t believe it has been two years since you were taken from us. Not a day goes by that I don´t think of you and all the fun, amazing and crazy times we had. I love you "Bro"...and miss you so very, very much.

Dearest sweet brother Dave,
Today is your 63rd birthday and the second one without you here. It is unbearable - I miss you so very much.
I miss talking with you each day and all the in-depth conversations we had - even if it was just to get each other spun up over crazy current events.
I so miss seeing you being one of the first to show up at family events and always looked forward to getting rhat big bear hug from you. I miss hearing your crazy laugh which could always...

My dear, sweet brother, it has been a year since you were taken from us. I can hardly believe it. I miss you every day. Easter will never be the same or any other family gathering. Love you and miss you, my big brother.

Dad,

I am sending you a Happy Father's Day from life here on Earth to Heaven. I cannot even begin to imagine what it must be like there. Like, do days even register to you there? Is time even a factor? Do you still process thoughts of this life? Do you have the same level of thinking, or do you look back and your past thoughts seem insignificant? I know you are in a much better place, and I am thankful that you are in the presence of our Savior. I was sitting here feeling sorry...

Cindy and family - Just letting you know thinking of your all - Dave sounded like an awesome human being, husband, father, brother, son...and on. Take comfort in all his joys of this life and his reunion with mom and dad. You guys have such a tight and loving family many don't these days...take comfort in your ability to love, laugh and care for one another - until we are reunited with those who have gone before.

Laura and family, We were so sorry to hear about Dave. Please know that our prayers are with you all as you go through this difficult time. Hopefully your memories will give you all comfort.

Dad,

I love and miss you more than words can convey. I never imagined how hard this would hit me, or how little time I was going to have left with you on earth. I never would have stayed away "to keep you guys safe" had I known. I have so many funny memories of our child and adulthood with you. You have taught me so much, and I have put those things to use WAY more than I thought possible since you left the earth. I will cherish all the deep spiritual talks we have had over the...
