Not sure what to say?

Sitting here thinking about how much I miss you and being able to talk to you about anything and everything. Life has kept on happening but mine will never be the same without you. Love you babe.

Sitting in my car after a long day at work, reading though this guestbook. My goodness how life changes when you go through such a loss. You´re gone, mom is gone, Nana is gone. But I´m raising two amazing boys and still so sad that they´ll never meet you. I make a point to talk about you regularly and show them photos of you, and pull out your guitar. They know you. Not quite like I did, but they love you just the same. It´s almost your birthday I love you and miss you dad.

Still loving you, still missing you, today, tomorrow, and always.

Still loving you, still missing you, and still wishing you were here. Rest In Peace Sweetheart

Forgot to light the candle. Much love always

A few days early this year but seems I am the only one who posts here. Thank you Melissa for giving me that privilege. I know I am not really talking to you babe but it makes me feel close to you just the same. Today and everyday I wish you were here. I will love you as long as my heart is beating. R.I.P sweet man.

Some years have passed but my love for you never will. Miss you

Loved you then and love you now. Forever and always in my heart. Missing you through eternity.
