Dad, we knew little morning that God was going to call you home. A part of us went with you, you did not go alone. We were left with our hearts shattered into a million pieces and an emptiness inside. Although, we're overwhelmed with sadness, my mind is at ease knowing that your soul is at rest. I think God seen your tired face, He seen your pain & suffering and knew you wouldn't get well here on earth. So He closed your weary eyes and put His arms around you and lifted you to rest. I thank you for all the wonderful memories! Thank you for all the good times, the laughter and love. I'm so grateful for the love you shared with us kids and grandkids. We were all so blessed to have been a part of your life. You were such a loving, kind, generous, peaceful man of God. I look forward to the day we are together again. Your love is forever imprinted in our hearts. WE love & miss you Dad/tata Dad/Pops
