Daddy,

You truly FILLED LIFE UP! We are missing your grand personality, JOKES, signifying, storytelling, laughter and love. What a journey this has been. Jamie said at your funeral that you were a complicated man. You were sometimes...and then you were a simple man too. All that sitting on the porch...thinking. Reminiscing on the good times and the puzzle of life. I'm going to miss your daily calls, Sir.

"DADDY!" In person and on the phone...that's how what you heard...

To my partner in crime. I will miss you will always love you. Knowing you are dear to my heart, the Lord has prepared your spot. Words cannot express the empty that I feel cause you di teach how to be real. I will always have apart of you as long as my big sister's are near. I love you both Barb n Peach for sharing your family with me. God got us all in his hand. Trust in his word, for we all will be together with Jimmie again.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
