To my Son, my first born:
I cannot begin to say how sorely you are being missed every day & every minute by me, your father, your sisters, your wife & Kids & all the family members. It is like a bad dream that I will never wake up from.
There is nothing I can begin to say about the heartache of missing you.
Your laugh, your hugs, your smell, how great you took care of your family & did your best. How you treated others. Your children & family was your pride & joy. You went no where without your son. Determined to be the best father you could be to both your children. You grew into a man that I became extremely proud of. I will love you forever. The Song "Because you loved me" said it all. Until I see you again, I am forever the proud mother of her only son.
Love,
your mother

My short life with you was truly a loving time for me cause I Loved You.You and me had a baseball game together because when I met you at the altar to marry my daughter as we shook hands I told you take care of my girls, (Wendy, and Tiffany) you said no problem man, because their mine now. Well my man now it's time to tell you no problem because it's not only Wendy and Tiffany but now there is a little Ricky in there to take care of so the ball is now in my hands again and don"t worry Dad your covered. I LOVE YOU.
