Not sure what to say?

Time has just flown bye but missing you has not. Tomorrow will be 20 years since the worst day in my life to date happened. I'm old now Dad (Lol) and the kids are all grown and making their own life moving forward. I don't agree with all their decisions but in this day and age with all the BS rules there is not much Eva, and I can do. 20 years of missing you at deer camp and enjoying holidays in the house in Michigan with us all together I do miss. Eva and I are doing well and starting to...

Hello Dad- As you know I'm in the Philippines with Eva for her Birthday. Dave and I will be heading up to the UP this year after missing a few years. Eva has been doing a real good job of fixing up the house in the PI and I will be here 30 days this trip. Carrie started her Senior year of college and Julia got married to her longtime partner Kevin. Denise is still working hard in DC at the Teamsters, and she even just changed jobs. Thank You for always being there for me when I ask for...

Wow, I can´t believe it´s been almost 20 years since we said a very tearful goodbye to you Dad. There isn´t a day goes by that something during my day that makes me think of you and the wonderful times spent with you. I think of you more often as the year goes on as it gets closer and closer to November and what would be our annual deer camp with you, Mr. Fleming, Bill and I. That fly-in fishing trip so many years ago was awesome. Wish we could have done that again before the all mighty...

Hey Grandpa,
It's been a few years since you've passed, and I can honestly say it still isn't easy. I think about you often and I truly hope I am making you somewhat happy with how my life is going so far.
Things have changed so much, Carrie is grown up and almost 21, Shes in college too! and Julia is a RN! she has two dogs, Benji and Winston, she says she has a big dog and a little dog now like you did. Benji is a German shepherd and Winston is a poodle mix, they're the goofiest!...

It has been 18 (Long) years since you left this world Dad. Everyday something reminds me of you, sometimes just the littlest things make me think of you or maybe just going across the bridge when I always say "Hello" to Mom & You. The world is just not the place you knew, and loved Dad and I know if you were still with us how disgusted you would be. Family is doing well Dad (As you know) and I believe it stems from the way you raised me. I will have been retired (Fully) for two years on Aug...

Dad, it is going to be 17 years on the 29th and so much has happened and so much has YET to happen. Julia and Kevin, her boyfriend of many years have just moved into a new house about 8-10 miles from us. Carrie is getting ready to start years two at Salisbury and she is still playing Softball, so I know your Dad is smiling down. Denise is working hard for the teamsters in DC and Jimmy Hoffa Jr was her boss when she hired on (Brown Fox). I will be retired almost 1 years on the 30th, Eva and I...

Well Dad, another year has passed and as usual, not a day goes by without thinking about you and the precious times that we all got to spend with you. Bill and I will be heading to deer camp this year and as always it will be full of memories of passed deer seasons that we spent together with you as well as Mr. Fleming. I will always miss the awesome meals that you would prepare and the times we sat around listening to some old deer camp stories from years past while having a cold beer...

Best Dad anyone could of ever had

Toasting Dad in first class. Great times!!!!
