Tracey,
From one "Daddy's Girl" to another, I know how hard this is for you. But, weren't we both so lucky to have strong, accomplished, well-respected and fun guys as our Dads?
They left us with happy memories, words of wisdom and, the best gift of all:their unconditional love.
With sympathy for your entire family,

Summer day at the Lyons' cottage
My deepest sympathy goes out to Mrs. Lyons, Nichelle, Tracy and the extended family. I have many fond memories of Mr. Lyons. I spent a lot of time with him since I was one of Nichelles best friends growing up and to this day. He was so good to everyone and had such a big heart.
No matter how many years have gone by without seeing him, He will always be so dear to my heart. What a great loss. He was one in a million. My love to the whole family and please let me know if there is...
