Dad, you will be missed forever, I'm so sorry I could not be with you or talk to you the past year, I tried so hard. Precious time was taken from me and my daughters and grandchildren that could never be replaced. I'm so sorry we were not able to say goodbye. Rest easy Dad, you are with Mom and all your loved ones that have passed before you. We all love you keep looking down on us, until we meet again.
