10-7
FOR SGT. MARK DeCAPRIO
END OF WATCH.
REST IN PEACE

Mark,

It is hard to believe that it has been a year. Seems like the other day we were visiting at Shelley’s. I have been watching out for Shelley and Lucinda when I get Joseph. As you know from your spot in heaven Lucinda is becoming a beautiful lil girl you can be proud of. She is still shy and she has a big heart. When I was by last week she was playing with Helena on the computer, She loves learning and wants to go to school so bad. We will see what she is like when she is in high...

Daddy,
It's your "little ray of sunshine." I'll be 5 in December. I miss you so very much daddy. I know you are with me every second of the day watching over mom and I. We visit you every Sunday to check on you. One day when it rained so much. Mom had to drive all around the cemetary to get to you so we can visit you. I know you are in a better place. Say "Hi" to my brother Paul for us. It is har for all of us. I have my mom,brother, and sisters and close friends ( Tom & Donna Sparrow)...

MARK , The last letter you wrote me was .....I just want you to know that" I LOVE YOU SO"!!!!!!Your my heart & I appreciate all the things you do as a house wife & .......Your a great & Mother & Wife& I Love you with all my heart.!!!!!!!! Thank You for loving my daughter & being kind to her You will always be my flower & breath of fresh air!!!!!!May God"s blessing be upon you!!!!!!LOVE MARK !!!!!! ITS BEEN SO HARD TO GO ON & WATCH THE MOVIES, ALL PRIVATE LETTERS HELP ME MOVE FORWARD !!!!...

It is coming up on the one year anniversary of your passing. What a shock to all of us who knew you and thought so much of you,,,your kindness, your humor, your spirit and love of our Father. I have not been able to write before,,,but I had to say thank you for being such a good friend to me,,,I know God holds you in His hands...

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

DAD,
Things have been lonely without you theses days . We are really missing you. I tried to post a couple things on here but it didn't work . I put some pictures on here . Its hard to go on with you being gone we don't do the things we use to , like go fishing that much and go to Cantigney. I remember the the trips we would go on and how we got lost on the way there and the time we ate chicken at the that little place in Michagan City. So DAD I LOVE YOU your SON MARK ANTHONY. :)
