Not sure what to say?

Dad, I am thinking of you and smiling...now and forever.

Your daughter Dawn

I don't have to say what a great person Mr. D was because we all know. I will never forget him looking into the hood of my car saying "Chris, I just don't know" knowing that there was nothing wrong with my car but he wanted to work on it to make it better..............
I will miss you Mr. D and I hope somewhere up there you are fixing a 79 Mustang
There was no getting your head out of the hood of my car. Dawn and I left for hours and you had no clue we were gone.
We came...

We feel blessed to have had Nick for a dear neighbor for six short years. His big smile and warm hello always brightened our day. It was always a race to see who coud get the trash cans out and take them in first on trash pick-up day. Nick usually beat us. His approval of our home improvement projects always made us feel that they met his high standards. He was a light in our lives and the neighborhood will never seem the same without him. Thank you very much, Nicholas, for being our friend.

My friend and father in law is a man that I have always respected and admired. There was never a story that I didn‘t find fascinating , from the times he “fished” for coins out of the sewer with wagon grease, the WWII Bob Hope stories , all the way to his automobiles and more. Truly he was an inspiration to me and I will never forget the wisdom he taught me through the years. I am very fortunate to have met and known such a man in my life. Thank you Nick for being my friend, my father in law,...

Dad,
It’s been 3 weeks since you went to sleep. It’s been hard. I miss you terribly. I find myself crying everyday, but now I have to stop. You don’t want to see me sad, you never did. I will now and always think of the wonderful moments we shared and I will smile right back at you. I loved your smile and how you always made me feel so special. I loved the times you told me you were proud of me. I loved all the laughs we shared. I feel lucky to have seen your face light up with your...

Whenever I had the chance to see Dawn's dad at a get-together at her parents' house, he was always the most handsome man in the room.

Happy Valentine’s Day, Pop-Pop.
We love you and miss you.
Forever your granddaughters “Aunum” and Kylie

I extend my deepest sympathy in your loss of Nick, who was a true gentleman and a very special person.

Happy Valentine's Day
Thinking of you today and everyday you have been gone. Oh, how much you are missed. The 51 years were wonderful to have you.
Until we meet again.
