Not sure what to say?

I find myself really missing poppy latley. I have so many regrets now that he's gone. I regret not stopping in just to say hello more often or saying a proper goodbye. I will miss you everyday of my entire life poppy and I will always keep you close to my heart. You were an amazing great grandfather and person. I love you poppy.

There are times when words fall short of what we want to really say. Uncle Em, I will always have memories of you and Dad together. Your smiles could brighten anyone's world and your laughter was infectious. We will miss you greatly and we send our love to all of your family.

All of us on the 8th floor at St. Al's were touched by Emory's spirit and Kay's strength. I will miss hearing the sounds of his "quiet" snore floating out to the nurses station in the middle of the night. Many blessings for an amazing family.

Uncle Em, How lucky I am to have had you as my uncle, your smile, sense of humor and great stories will never compare. I think we will all be lost for a while without you but I have many, many stories to tell my children. And thanks to you, Nams cut Logan's hair and he does look like a "little Boy" she gave him the Emory special. You will be missed terribly and thought of daily with much love. Lisa, Lauryn and Logan

Dad, I was so lucky to have you for 60yrs. but its not nearly enough.I think about you constantly and it brings a smile to my face. You & Mom are the reason our family is so close and I thank you for that.I have so many great memories and it breaks my heart that you aren't here to enjoy a good story and laugh. I tried to not let myself think you wouldn't be but that didn't happen. I MISS your smile and your great sense of humor. What a wonderful legacy you have left for our family. I LOVE YOU...

I loved Uncle Emory so much. I'll remember his great smile, affection, demeanor and "Roberts humor" always. My childhood memories of him still warm my heart. He is unforgettable. Thinking of all of you, and love to you all. Chris

Poppy~ You and Grandma have always been my heart's home and I feel lost without your smiling face. Coco

Unfortunately due to circumstance I only had 4 short years with Emory. No one could ask for a better father-in-law.
Love You - Rest Easy My Friend.
