Not sure what to say?

My uncle Dewey was a giant amount men. I heard stories from my dad his brother Abe that made him seem super human. He was the uncle I always came to want to see as a lil feller. When I went to his house I was very loved. Uncle Dewey I love and miss you. You'll always be in my heart as my super uncle.

Happy 82nd Dad! I missed you this year on your birthday. I thought about you all Day. I miss you and our weekly visit on the phone. Rest in peace. I love you

I think about you everyday. It's still hard to believe you left us and went to heaven to be with Dewey Jr. and Uncle Abe. I bet they were glad to see you again. I went to Kenny Jr. 1st birthday party and it just wasn't right that you weren't there. I know you would have enjoyed it. I love you and will always miss you until I meet again some day with you, Mother and Dewey Jr.

Your daughter.

It's been one month today since you went to heaven and I think about you everyday. I try not cry because I remember you talking to me about death the day of Mother's funeral and I know you wouldn't want me to be crying all the time. I still do cry sometimes because I can't believe you're gone and I know you weren't ready to go. You had so many more things to do. I love you and you are in my heart forever. I miss you everyday. Your Daughter.

Dad, I love you and miss you and I will keep you in my heart always. I am so glad that I got to spend the week with you. I will cherish that forever. I will also always have my special memories of you when I was a little girl on Reading Road. I was a Daddy's girl BIG TIME! Now you are in heaven with Dewey Jr. I know his death was very hard on you. I now have three guardian angels to watch over me; you, Mother and Dewey Jr. I love you with all of my heart.

Your Daughter,

I will always love you papaw. You were the best.

Some People"

"Some people come into our lives
and quickly go.
Some people move our souls to dance.
They awaken us
To new understanding
With the passing whisper of their wisdom.

Some people make
The sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
They stay in our lives for a while,
Leave footprints on our hearts
And we are never, ever the same.


Dewey Sloan Sr. was the nicest man I have ever met in my life. Even when it seemed there was nothing to talk...

I will always remember Dewey and the neighborhood of Orchard Ave.

It's hard saying goodbye to the greatest friend ever. You will be sorely missed, not only by me, but by everyone. I don't think you realized how may lives you touched and how many people loved you. A diamond in the rough. That was you. You'll always live on in my heart and in the hearts of so many others. Goodbye my friend. My deepest sympathy to Kenny, Diane, Charlie, Julie & Jean.
