Not sure what to say?

Daddy, God blessed me w/the opportunity to have some very long, up close, & personal conversations w/you over the past few years. Because of that we developed a closer relationship and I can truly say that I am ever more greatful. This quote sums it up for me: "We shall pass this way on Earth but once; if there's any kindness we can show, or good act we can do let us do it now, for we will NEVER pass this way again."

In loving memory of a wonderful daddy. We will love you and miss you always.

Let the family stand so close together that one cannot fall without the other. Sending prayers to lift the family up on the homegoing of Mr. Carter.
