Not sure what to say?

Another year is approaching and I don't know how I made it this far without you. Life could be better but I won't complain. I often find myself using your different quotes on Makenna lol. " You eat to live, not live to eat" lolI make it a priority that she knows who you are and how special of a person you were. I haven't met a soul yet who can match your energy, personality and strength. I love you dad and miss you more than words can explain. Continue to get your rest we got it driver ❤

Hey PaPa , today is March 13th 2025 . 13 years later & the wound still feel fresh.

The world has lost a giant of a man. My memories of Willie was from our Lee Moving time working together. Whenever we need a VIP moved, we knew who was needed on the job and that was Willie. Willie never let us down.

Willie always called me 5 4. When we got our nextel phones many years ago the first time I called him, I used the old comedy show title to call him, I said Car 54 Where Are You? From that day forward, even in our recent phone calls he always said 5 4 how you...
