Hi dad! I´m back to show you some love. The 23rd of January, is a painful reminder on how long you have been gone from this life. My music catalog has expanded and I listen to some artist and songs; I think to myself, yeah dad would have been loving this song. Music was our shared passion and I miss us sharing songs so much. I´m doing great, I´m actually retired now. I know right, can you believe it. Your grandson is a freshman in college and your granddaughter is in 5th grade. Knowing that...

Dad, it´s been a little minute since I´ve touched your book! It still hurts losing you. I have good days and bad days but I have the video of surprising for Valentine´s Day and I listen to remember your face and your voice. I pray that you are enjoying heaven with grandma! Love you always, A.D.N.F.

Hi dad, I can´t believe you have been gone for 20 years. It doesn´t seem that long. I miss you and I know you are watching over us. I love you and send my kisses to you in Heaven! A.D.N.F.

Just thinking about you! This pain of your loss, hasn't decreased; if anything I think it grows because I think of the milestones in my life that you weren't able to see. I think of you missing out on the great opportunity to meet, know and see your beautiful grandchildren. Mom, is a great Nana to them. I know you would have been proud of your son's and daughters. We are all doing well! I miss you and wish I could hear your voice. It fades from my memory and I try my best to remember how...

Missing you dad! Your birthday is around the corner and we just celebrated your granddaughters birthday! You would have loved her. Happy early birthday! Love you!

Merry Christmas dad. I woke up with my children on my mind and then I thought if you. Dad, how I wish you were still here. Wish you could have seen and met your grandchildren. I remember the excitement of having you cook breakfast on Christmas morning and listening to Boys II Men "Let it snow". You never knew how happy that made me and in your honor, I carry on that tradition with Jay and Cali. They are truly a joy and I hate that they will never get a chance to see you in this life but just...

To the Trueitt family: He is not lost forever from you. But only for awhile. He will meet you again. With his wonderfull smile. My sincere condolences to the family of Jackie Trueitt. I am also from that neighborhood, remembering Jackie with that part in the middle of that large Afro. And how he walk onto the Severance Field. This truly sadden me. He will be missed. May God keep his Loving arms around this family during this time of grief. And on behalf of the Bowen family are...
