Dear Dad.
Well it's been a year, and I still find myself crying at certain times. I miss you immensely, although I know you would have been proud of Robert he has done extremely well this year. He will be attending Loyola High School and has recieved several scholarships. Of course your best bud is also doing well - he is determined and is going for a full ride to high school. Katelyn is also doing well and she is not sure what she is going to do. Anyway I love you and miss you, but I know you are at peace. Please watch over us and guide us.
Love, Anne
