Grandpa I am still amazed by the things that you did and the things that you taught the people you interacted with in life. Like last night, the tools that you left dad kept me from being stranded in a parking lot because I stupidly locked my keys in my truck again. I dreamed of you last night as well, your smile that was contagious and your words of wisdom still filling my ears. I miss you terribly.

Love you always,
Your granddaughter.

Uncle Bill, Not a day goes by that I think of you, that I don't miss you. I am Thankful that I shared time with you & the whole family at the reunions that we were lucky enough to come to. I can close my eyes and still see you up there conducting the auction, I can still hear your laugh, and still feel the warmth of your smile. You still visit me from time to time and I want to Thank you for that also. Just don't pull my hair like Grandpa does when he visits! I miss you dearly, Uncle.

So day makes it a year. 1 year since I saw you, heard your laugh, had a hug and an I love you....It has changed my life more than I could of EVER thought. The loss of you has left such a hole in my soul. You were my constant and not having you with me is really difficult. I hope that in the coming years I will be able to find my balance again.
I love you Dad

Dad,
I want to thank you for truly showing me a servants heart. You always jumped up to greet someone, help someone, move something or just give some advice. I now know that every time I am serving in some way I can thank you for showing me first. I have so much that I wanted to say, happen and live while you were here. Thanks for the effort you made towards me and my family the last few years we had together. I will no longer take for granted the time I have left here. I will...
