Nascar, March madness, the St Patties Day parade, and Spring Training. Aww what wonderful memories and times we all had. Your new granddaugher will be here soon. Love and miss you so Papa!

Merry Christmas Grandpa! I will miss you for my first Christmas but I know you are always here with us! My Mama and Dad tell me about you everyday and how much you loved the holidays and
especially Christmas. We will always keep your memory alive and every time your Christmas clock rings we all smile. Have a wonderful celebration with our Lord this Christmas!! Love your Audrey!!

Miss you everyday. Miss my sports buddy, our political rants and just being with you. Always had the best time just doing a bunch of nothing with you. We will miss you tomorrow, next week and forever. Thank you for everything you did and for everything you were. You were simply the best and we will love and miss you until we are all together again.

Jess, that is a beautiful poem! You are a beautiful person. I know you miss your papa deeply. My heart hurts for your loss! You have become the man your father raised you to be. Be proud. I am. I love you J...Cyd

I find myself wondering...
Did I give you your due..
For all that you've done for me
Did I ever thank you?


For all of my childhood memories
For helping me deal with life's stresses
For helping me accept my defeats
And celebrate my successes?


Or for teaching me the value of hard work,
Good judgement, courage, and being true
The laughter, smiles, and quiet times we've shared
Did I ever thank you?

Not a day goes by that I don`t have Jake moments!!! I miss my friend and partner constantly! Happy Birthday Rooter.

Papa football Sundays will never ever be the same without you! Heck our lives are not the same without you. Each day brings a different memory and hurtful reminder of how we miss you so much!! Through our pain we feel you constantly and know you are right here every step of the way! Our bond is still as "Solid" as ever.
