Dad,
I don't know where to begin, You were a good Father and raised me to work hard and take care of my family but most of all when I got older you taught me to appreciate life and family and the love of Jesus our savior, More than money and the things of this temporary world, unfortunately it took me a long time to figure out the real meaning of life .
I know you were saved and I will see you again when you wake up and we're all reunited in the clouds.
I love and miss you dad and I will always be you're bud

One of the nicest guys I grew up with. It was a privilege to have known you. My mom (who was one of his teachers) said "He had the most infectious laugh." Glad to know you knew the Lord. Would have loved to hear some of your poems. Heaven is rejoicing! You will be missed.
