Michael Robert Ercole

It's been so long ago on the passing of this wonderful man.....it seems like yesterday.....prayers and thoughts are with you!

My beloved Daddy.. We'll this will be my last entry as this memorial site is ending. However, my thoughts of you forever go on in my heart and soul.

As I have mentioned in previous entries, this past year has been tough with out you. I've needed you so much. I can not believe one year is gone already without your loving touch, your tender hugs, hearing your voice, listening to your hysterical stories or your silly accents, holding your soft hands and just seeing your beautiful...

dear Poppy I miss you so much it has been a rough year without you I love you so much and please do not forget how much I love you and miss you.

Hi I miss you so much at night I cry over how much i love and miss you. Grandma gave me the tiger that you had on your side bed when you were in the hospital.

My Beloved Father... How do I begin to share my thoughts of today? I struggle, as its Mommy's birthday, yet the horrific date when you left this earth. The day that forever took a piece of my heart. A date that holds memories that are yet still so raw and almost unbearable to recall. They say that time heals? Who says? Who are these people? We'll THEY are wrong. One year is not enough time, perhaps it will never be? Will it be Daddy? Will this pain and emptiness for you in my heart ever...

Merry Christmas Daddy....
Our first without you. The day is not the same.. our hearts ache for you, but know that you are with us all on this special day. Donna, kids and I will be with Mommy today, giving her lots of love and support as you asked and we promised to you. We will miss your silly humor today Daddy. Its quiet without you. Please know that you are forever in my heart and soul and how very much you are missed.

Till our souls meet in heaven Daddy... I will...

Mike, Last Wednesday my son Joe returned from the gulf on his carrier. My wife, mom amd dad and I greeted him as he came off the ship. It was a very emotional moment. I haven't seen him since January. I am so proud of him and I know you were. I can't thank you enough for helping him become the fine young man he is today. I know you were looking down on us that day. Prayers for you Carole and the girls. I miss you my friend. Rest in peace.

Michael Robert Ercole was my penpal. We met by accident through the internet, both having the same name and both being firefighters. He sent me wonderful letters telling me about his life, his family, his navy service, and his work. I had not received a letter from him in quite some time and now I see why. I surely wished I could of met him in person. To his family, my deepest sorrows for your lose. Sincerely.

My Dearest Daddy ...

"Happy BirthDay Daddy" (4-17-2010)

This past Saturday (4-17-2010) "Your Birthday", was very difficult for me. This is the first birthday that we were NOT together. The first were I could not hug or kiss you. I try to listen to my friends saying "He is with you in spirit", but its just so painful Dad. I have been pushing my pain away, far away, in order for me to get out of my bed and be productive in life. But I am hurting so very much. I weep...
