Not sure what to say?

I think of you everyday Dad.
I miss you so.

Dear Dad,

Happy 91st Birthday and 4th Anniversary in Heaven. We all miss you very much, every day.

We'll be looking skyward tonight, as the Lyrid meteor shower puts on a display. God's way of lighting sparklers for your birthday. : )

You were born during the Lyrid meteor shower.
Mom was born during the Perseid meteor shower.
It could be said that your love was written in the stars.
And although you are now amongst those stars

Christmas 2007

Dear Dad,
Merry Christmas in Heaven, your third one. I miss you still and love you always. Remembering those gorgeous Christmas trees you would bring home and we'd all decorate. You helped make so many wonderful memories, Dad. Till we see each other again, may you ever be surrounded with God's love.
Love You Always,
Your Light-Haired Girl
Celia

Is this really the third Fathers Day without you Dad? We will be together and celebrating you tomorrow. We'll toast you with root beer! I hope you send some butterflies. I love & miss you terribly.

I am missing you more than ever this Christmas week Dad. I love you always.

Happy 89th Birthday in Heaven Poppa. Today is also Good Friday... and Christs suffering is why we will all be together and will dwell in the house of the Lord. In the meantime I know you are never far because you will live in my heart forever.
always,
maura

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Dad. Although my world is dimmer without your presence, the shars shine all the brighter for I know you are with God. On this night of the Lyrids Meteor Shower I shall look up and think of you, this family's brightest star. All my love, always. Your light-haired girl, Celia

Dear Dad, my birthday is not the same without you. I know you are in heaven and with God, that is the best gift we will ever receive. You were the best gift to me. A father who instilled faith, love, intelligence, work ethic, honor, character and family. All the best of me come from the whole of you, my Dear Dear Father. It's been almost a year to the day and I still miss you so.. May God ever hold you in the palm of His hand. Love Eternally, your light-haired girl Celia

Happy Valentine's Day in heaven Poppa. I miss you so much.
The whole in my heart and our family will never be filled.
I love you always & forever.
