We lost Mommy on the 4th of July. I am hoping the 2 of you are reunited and together again. I know how much she has missed you and how heartbroken she has been since we lost you. We all are and now its happening all over again. Things are crazy in this world right now Dad. Maybe you and Mommy are now in a better place. We will be visiting you in a couple days and bringing Mommy to be with you.

May 20, 2019

We just went through a whole year since Brittany died. It has been a heartbreaking year and this past weekend just brought all the grief back again. Things change so much. I'm not sure what I'm doing from one day to the next sometimes. I miss you and the times we had.

April 20, 2019

Wishing you a Happy Easter I'm going to Chad's house for Easter diner and I needed some things done around the house curtins put up my bedskirt put on the bed and Cathy did it all.

January 7, 2019

We had another Christmas and New Years without you. I miss you on Christmas day. The day isn't the same without you sitting behind the table in the basement eating cookies and cheesecake. Our lives are forever changed. I feel it more as the time passes. Getting older and our kids getting older too. I would give anything to go back 20 years and experience those times with you here again. I shot a nice deer this year and one of the first things I thought of is I wish you were there. I know now what you meant when you would say "don't wish your life away" it goes so fast. I don't know where 52 years have gone. I wish I could change so many things.

November 22, 2018

Another Thanksgiving and deer season is here without you. We will be thinking about you.

October 24, 2018

Well, Dad tomorrow is your birthday. I wish you were here to celebrate with us. I miss asking for your advice and thoughts about stuff when I am uncertain how to handle things. It's been a terrible year with loosing Brittany and trying to console Susan. I feel so sorry for Susan, Brandon and the kids. Susan tells me that Abby is missing her a lot and is talking more about her as time goes by. Even though I didn't see Brittany a lot, I think about her everyday and how much pain this has caused everyone. Mommy has been in and out of the hospital again this year. We would really love to have a sign from you that you are ok, but that hasn't happened.

September 16, 2018

This might be my last entry in your book. It is expiring soon. I've missed you these past 3 years. I miss dinners, building, hunting, fishing, talking....just hasn't been the same. I got over the grief but the sadness never goes away. Life is different now, not in a good way. Too much worry and stress, not how I thought it would be in my 50's. I'll just try to keep hoping it gets better. You were my best friend. You were the person I did all the good things with. I hope you hear me sometimes. I love you.

August 26, 2018

I came to see you last week. You have been gone 3 years now. I've had some terrible things happen this summer. I sure would like to talk to you about it. Life has been a bit rough since you left.

May 21, 2018

We lost Brittany in a horrible car accident. I feel all the same pain all over again like when you died but this is just so shocking and devastating. She is only 27 with 5 little kids. There is nothing any of us can do to console Susan right now. She is in misery. I can only hope that Brittany is somewhere with you resting in peace.

March 29, 2018

Happy Easter in heaven I think about you a lot wish you were here miss you so much love you until we are together again love and miss you

March 13, 2018

I have been thinking about you a lot today and miss you more then ever I love you until we are together again LOVE

March 13, 2018

Well Dad, today is my 5 year anniversary. A picture popped up in my memories on Facebook with all of us in it. I wish we could go back to that day. Life has never been the same since you passed away. I love and miss you every day!!

February 24, 2018

Well I turned 77 and wish you were here to celebrate with me I need you more now then I every did. I miss you so much and I love you Until we are together again I love you.

January 27, 2018

I miss you Dad. Sometimes so much it gets me down for days and sometimes I still just can't believe you died. I'm going to come visit with you today.

January 21, 2018

Jacobs B-Day today. 15 years old!!! I wish you were here to celebrate with us.

January 20, 2018

Well the Holidays are over and im home from the hospital just can't stay well but I feel pretty good but I miss you more and more everyday miss and love you until we are together again.

December 24, 2017

Merry Christmas Dad. I love you.

December 15, 2017

Once again home from work late at night and looking at pictures. I wish you were here for Christmas. Jacob and I have come out to see you a few times the past couple weeks. I always knock to let you know I'm there but you don't answer. I wonder where you are and if you're better now and if you are OK. Hard to believe I have not seen you for over 2 years. It hasn't gotten any easier to accept. I miss being with my Dad.

November 17, 2017

Hi Dad, I came out to see you yesterday and put out some Christmas Decorations. It's hard for me to go there knowing that your body is behind that marble wall. Mommy is in rehab so we won't make it out there next week for Thanksgiving. I am going to Cumberland to do my craft show next weekend. Its so hard this time of year without you with us. You have never given us any kind of sign that you are ok, it would be nice to know that. Just don't do it in the middle of the night!! I love and miss you everyday.

October 29, 2017

Your birthday was a few days ago. We didn't really talk about it too much. It just makes us all very sad, but I hope you know I had you on my mind the entire day.

October 12, 2017

I always think of you when I get home from work late at night and I'm alone. I look at your pictures and think that you would only be turning 77 soon and how that is much too young for you to be gone.

September 30, 2017

Today is our 56 anniversary and I wish you were here.I miss you so much I miss our morning coffee together reading the paper together.You never know how much you miss and love that someone until they are know longer here. Happy Anniversary. Until we are together again.

Summer is over and another hunting season has started again, without you. I still have times when I just stare into space and can't believe that my Dad is gone. I look at pictures and think about 49 years of memories with you. The memories are great but now that that's all there is it's heartbreaking. I guess we have some more big changes coming soon with Mommy and the house. Hard to believe there will be a time when we will not have Christmas at your house or even be able to go there. Just more loss. I guess that is what death brings, loss and the end of cherished things and times in our lives. I'll always miss you until the day I die, then maybe I will see you again. I don't know if I believe that can happen but I would like to think maybe it's possible. I love you Dad.

August 21, 2017

Just went through 2 years without you. Jacob and I went to the cabin to cut grass, but I also did a lot of thinking and reminiscing about our times there. It was tough building that place but I'd go back to the beginning and start all over anytime. I was talking to you, I wonder if you hear me.

July 8, 2017

LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH

July 7, 2017

Wish you were here to show us how to catch some fish. I think about you when were on the boat. I try to stay upbeat and remember the good times, but I still miss you so much it's hard.

June 17, 2017

Happy Fathers Day in heaven. I love you.

June 1, 2017

Almost 2 years now. I still miss you everyday.

May 9, 2017

Cathy and I went to the cabin she had a show we had a good time I missed you so much I know how much you like it up there miss and love until we are together love and miss you.

April 16, 2017

Today is Easter we went to the mountains with Justin's family for Easter.Cathy and me stopped by to visit with you I wished so mush you could have gone with us. The day was nice. Miss you and love you so much until we are together again love you.

April 9, 2017

I am not feeling too good and all I have done is lay in bed and think for the last 4 days. I miss you.

March 29, 2017

I wish you were here to put the boat in the water. It would have been fun to do some Rockfishing together. I'm sorry we never did. We'll be Turkey hunting in a few weeks also. These things just don't seem right without you. I hope you know that I am always thinking about you when I am doing the things we always loved doing together. I sometimes even find myself talking to you. I guess talking to myself really, but I hope you can hear me.

March 15, 2017

Always thinking about you Dad.

February 23, 2017

Well Iam a year older and doing ok and feeling pretty good put it don't take the hurt away. I miss you so much and wish you were here I just never thought I would ever be without you. Love and miss you until we are together again.

February 20, 2017

I put a new light up at your house today. I was in the shed looking for the tools I needed and found myself thinking out loud and asking you where things were. I wish you would have answered. It is just so odd that all of your stuff is in there but you are never there to fiddle around with it anymore.

February 2, 2017

February 1, 2017

I miss you Dad. I think about you all the time. I wonder where you are, how is it that you are just gone? I think about being a kid and playing ball and going on vacation to Wild Wood and hunting and fishing and how I never ever gave any thought growing up that at some point we would never see each other again. I just thought you would always get better and go home again. I was not prepared for you to be gone forever.

January 22, 2017

You're always on my mind Dad

December 26, 2016

Christmas is over and its not the same without you I didn't have my buddy to help me put the gift under the tree. I thought of you with every gift I carried. I missed you so much on Christmas day some say the pain goes away with time but is has not for me. I am crying as I am typing this. I love and miss you so much until we are together again love and miss you.

Almost Christmas Dad. Our second without you. It's not the same. I do love being with everyone on that day, but it's not like always. Also our second deer season without you has come and gone. No deer again, but that's ok. I just like being there. That's what I always liked most about hunting with you....just being there. I know I keep saying it but it just seems like there is always something wrong. I have the thought of you being gone in the back of my mind at all times and it just makes me feel bothered. I miss you.

November 22, 2016

This is a very hard time of year Dad. Hunting and the holidays were the times I enjoyed the most with you. Missing you gets even worse this time of year.

November 19, 2016

Thanksgiving is a few days away it is at our house this year the holidays just are not the same without you I miss and love you We will be together again some day until then love and miss you so much.

November 7, 2016

I miss you Dad. Some things have reminded me a lot of you the last few days and you being gone just bothers me. I always have this uneasy feeling
inside now that there is something wrong.

November 1, 2016

Missing you a lot today.

October 5, 2016

Winters is coming fast. The pool is all closed up. We put away all the chairs and covered the tables and got ready for another winter. Jacob and I spend time in your shed like you used to looking at all your tools and the things you collected over the years. I hope you won't mind that I am going to borrow some of those things for a few years. It makes you feel closer even though I have not seen you in over a year. Still very hard to believe. I guess I will never get used to you being gone. It just always feels like something's wrong. I miss you.

Cathy

October 5, 2016

Everyone says that the pain gets easier over time. I do'n't believe that. I can't imagine that it will ever get better and I cry a lot. I wonder all the time if you are ok with the decision we made. I hope there is a Haven and that you are spending time with all of our family and friends that have passed. I turned over my calendar at work on Monday and your picture was there. A second birthday coming up without you. I hope you know that we love and miss you so much. It's so hard.....I love you Dad.

September 18, 2016

Your guest book is coming to an end. It's been a little over a year since you left us and the book has been up since then. We have been keeping your memory alive here with some pictures, prayers, and some heart felt comments. Although the book is ending your memory will never die for me. I still talk to you like you're here sometimes and when I come to see you I actually have conversations with you. It's just so hard to know that you are just behind that granite wall but I cant hear you or touch you or see you. I sometimes feel like everything is OK, but then have down times when I wish so much you were here and we could jump in the truck and go hunting or fishing or just ride to Home Depot to get materials for another project or just sit at the kitchen table and eat dinner and talk. Jacob and I came to see you yesterday and put some nice fall flowers in your vase. I hope you like them. I hope you are OK wherever you are and looking down on me sometimes. I wait for a sign but not yet, huh? I miss you Dad and will forever remember how good it was to have you for my Dad. I will never stop thinking about you or loving you. Craig

September 7, 2016

It's one of those days were I am missing you more than usual. We had Olivia and Samantha's birthday party and Katelyn's birthday over the past few weeks and you were not there. It's still an odd feeling that your not here. Riley misses you alot and is all the time say "I miss granddad". Justin and Kristy just bought a big new house and I know that you would be so proud of them. Mommy was in the hospital again, but should be coming home today. It's been over a year, but we all still grieve as if it just happened yesterday. Mommy misses you so much and is lost without you. So am I. I love you Dad.

August 18, 2016

I've been missing you for a year now. It's hard to believe how long you've been gone. I'm sitting here with you right now, I wonder if you know. I hope so.

August 1, 2016

It's almost a year that you have been gone and I miss you more and more every day and I need you so much I am so lost with out you. I love you and miss you more then you will ever know. Until we are together again I love you.

July 21, 2016

I wish we could go fishing

June 21, 2016

It was very hard to be without you on Fathers day. To not give you a card or have a cookout and to let you know how proud and happy I am that you are my Dad. Instead I sat at your grave and wondered why this has to be. I cant help reliving that day last August over and over and wishing we had done it differently somehow. I hate the thoughts that I constantly have in my head wondering what if this and what if that? What if we had taken you to another hospital, could they have saved you? I know it's too late and I need to let it go, but it feels like it was just yesterday. Staring at numbers on a monitor day after day hoping they improve but they didn't. I can still see you taking your last breath and your heart beats stopping and that feeling of disbelief then total grief and I just can't seem to accept that it happened. I didn't really know what to do at that very moment and I still don't

June 2, 2016

It's June now. The time goes by fast but the hurt is still here. It was this time last year when things starting getting real bad. Fathers day will not be an easy day. I wish I could tell you how I feel just one more time. Something happened to me when you died. I just can't seem to ever feel good and I don't have you around to talk about it.

May 10, 2016

Still struggling and missing you.

May 7, 2016

For you Dad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8WlCqZPTeg

Mommy's home.

March 26, 2016

It's Easter Dad. I guess I'd say happy Easter if you were still here, so it's just Easter. Last year it was happy at the cabin, but we miss you this year. It's been just over 7 months and I still think about you and wish you were here everyday. I will go to have Easter dinner with Mommy tomorrow and we will be thinking of you.

March 12, 2016

Sitting here in the hospital with Mommy hoping she gets better and thinking about you.
