Hey Rick. I´ve been reminiscing about old times and lately I´ve thought of you a lot. You were like a brother to me and I sure miss the talks we had. I really miss you. I wish I could go back to those days when times were better for us. Just checking in to tell you that your memory is still alive. You were a hell of a man and a big part of my life. Love and miss you. Jean

Another year has passed daddy and it doesn't seem to get any easier with you gone. I miss you so very much!!!! I miss everything about you. I feel like sometimes I don't have anybody to share all the things that are going on in my life with. You were always the one that I could do that with, you always called or came by to see me and just spent time with ME. I still believe you were taken away from me way to soon. I should have had many more years with you but I know the Lord is in control and I have to trust in him to continue to give me the strength to get me through all of the tough days. I love you so much and I will continue to keep your spirit alive as I tell your beautiful grandchildren all of the funny and not so funny stories of your life. I love you and you will forever be alive in my heart. Love always your daughter.

My Dear Brother, it hurts so much to know it has been another year without you. I wish I knew you could look down and see what all is happening with the ones you love. I really think you can but I wish I knew for sure. I know if you can see us, you are so very proud of Wayne and Karen. They are doing so well in the aftermath of what has happened in their lives. Then, of course, there is Kristie, Bryan and those 3 beautiful grandchildren. If you can see us, I know you are in love with Leigha and are guiding Lucas. Leigha reminds me so much of you. She has your wonderful spirit. We all miss you more than words could ever say. Rest Peacefully. Your legacy lives on.
Love Forever, Janice

Well it has been a while since I have written daddy. I have been so busy with just everyting, the girls, work, softball practices , church and many other things. I was on my way to work yesterday and I was listening to the radio and a song came on that reminded me of you and how much I miss you!!!!! There are no words to describe the loneliness I feel without you here. I often think of all the times we spent together and the things we use to do. Daddy I love you so much and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you and wish you were here to see your grandchildren grow up, and let me tell you they are growing up!! Hailey is growing in to a beautiful little girl and she is so talented she is very much involved in sports and all church activities, she is going to be singing a solo at church in a couple of weeks. I am so proud of her! Hannah is doing awesome!!!! Her behavior has done a complete turn around. She is so very smart, her teacher wants to move her the advanced classes in school. Hannah did not want to play any sports yet but she is very involved at church!! Jordan is doing great too!!! He has all A's and B's in school and he starts driving to get his permit in two weeks. I am very proud of all three of my children and their accomplishments thus far!!! Bryan is doing good he got a promotion at work and is now a supervisor. Though it does require longer hours each day ,
and we all miss him, it has been a blessing!! Let me tell you Daddy you would have a fit over your little Leigha she is the sweetest little baby!!! She is so smart and cute. Lucas is so good with her, you would be proud of him. He takes care of her everyday! Daddy God has richly blessed our family and he just continues to keep blessing each one of us! Daddy you will be forever loved and missed !!!!! I wish that you could be here with me physically, I just want to hug you and love on you and never let you go!!!!! I don't know what would have happenend if I didn't have the strength of our Lord to carry me through! I thank God each day for my time with you when you were here, but I only wish it could have been longer!!! I don't question God because I know that he is in control of everything. He is my rock and my salvation. Daddy I love you and I can't wait until that glorious day when I get to see you again in Heaven. Until then, I will see you in my dreams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love always

Well Daddy I don't know where to begin! There has been some things that have happened over the past month,one thing that is not good and the other that is good. First, Ucle Dougie has died and I guess you know that because he is with you now. Oh daddy, it is so very sad. The good thing is that aunt Karen and I are talking again and it is wonderful, we try to call each other every couple of days. She is doing well and has started going to church every sunday I am proud of her! I really hate that we lost touch after you went to be with the Lord and I will do everything I can to be there for her.Daddy I miss you so much!!!!! We just had Hailey,s birthday party on Saturday, can you believe that she is nine? Anyway, Chad ,Caden, and Mason came and that made me very happy!!! Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I just want to remember all of the memories of being with you on this day. I love you daddy and as you look down from Heaven I hope that I am making you proud! Love Always, your daughter Kristie

Daddy I have said it before but it just does not feel like you have been gone for two years. As these days and years pass by I miss you more and more, but I can tell you that you are thought of and talked about everyday! Daddy I love you so much.I miss all the conversations we use to have , all the hugs and kisses, all the laughs, and just you being you! Daddy any girl on this earth could have been chosen to be your little girl, but I am so thankful that God chose me.I am so lucky to have had the most wonderful daddy in the whole world.I always think about how life is so short and I try not to take one minute for granted because you never know when the Lord is going to call you home and that was how it was with you.We all thought that you were going to be okay, but we were wrong because you were slowly slipping away right before our eyes.I think back on that day when I lost you and it tears my heart to pieces.I guess what I am trying to say is no matter how many days or years that pass by, you will always be alive in my heart and I will constantly think about you and keep your memory alive until I see you again. I Love you daddy with all of my heart and just to let you know I am trying my best to help Lucas! I promised you I would do all that I could for him and that is what I am doing. By the way he got another job and seems to be taking it very serious. Daddy I love you and miss you more than anyone will ever know and I am looking forward to seeing you again real soon. Love always your daughter Kristie

Nothing can be said that has not been said many times and in many different ways but I can't let the anniversary of your leaving this earth go by without saying once again how very much you are loved and how deeply you are missed. I can still hear your voice and feel your presence. We have Wayne back with us now. He is helping fill the void as he is much like you. When he speaks and certain mannerisms are so similar. You would be so proud of him and the choices he is making in his life now. I wonder sometimes if you are watching us all. I like to think you are; at least giving us little pushes toward the right road. You have to be one of God's favorites. Two years is a long time and yet in someways it seems like no time at all. I never thought it would still hurt as much today as it did two years ago. I can't understand how life just goes on the way it does when such a large part of mine is missing. I find comfort being close to your children and grandchildren. I know you are proud of them and I hope you somehow know I am keeping my promises to you. I love you and miss you, Your sister, Janice

Well daddy another year has almost gone by without you here and it still does not seem right.I still miss you so very much and I wish you could be here to share all of these special moments in my life that you wanted for me! We finally are in our new home, you know the one that you liked the best!You would be very proud of Lucas, he accepted Jesus into his heart and life and was baptized. Isn't that wonderful? Daddy you would absolutely fall in love with your new granddaughter (Leigha Hope McCall) she is the sweetest baby.I usually take her to church with us on Wed.and sometimes on Sunday.I have two little girls that still miss you and love you too, they talk about you all the time.Jordan misses you too.Can you believe that he is in high school now and is taking drivers ed? Oh how I wish that I could share all of these new memories with you.I guess I share them with you in a different way!I know that you are in no more pain but I guess that I am selfish because I still wish that I could just see you and talk to you and just love on you! Daddy you are the best and you will always be alive in my heart. I love you with my whole heart and I can't wait to see you again in that glorious place called HEAVEN.
Love always and forever your daughter Kristie

I can't believe that has almost been two years living without you here.I miss you so much.There are no words to say how deeply we miss you and love you!I find myself looking for pictures of you or going through your clothes just to try to be close to you.Hailey,Hannah,and Jordan miss you too, they are always asking questions about you wanting to know what my daddy was like when I was growing up.I always tell them stories about you.Hailey wishes you could be here to hear her sing tonight at the talent show at school but I tell her you are here, that you are looking down from heaven watching her.I love you daddy and I would love to be able to hear your voice or that silly laugh of yours, but I know that I will see you again one day, but this time you will be brand new!I have so many memories of you that I will cherish for the rest of my life.I love you with all of my heart.

Another birthday for you and another holiday season. It is all so surreal. I still wonder how you could possibly be gone and how we all go on without you. I know it hurts every one of us as much now as the day you left. I would give anything to see your face, to hear your laugh, to celebrate your birthday with you. Your last years on this earth were hard ones for you but you never let it show and with each of those birthdays as you grew weaker, you always laughed with us when we could see the pain in your eyes. I don't know what made you so special...a special person, son, brother, husband, father and grandfather but you did it all greatly and proudly. We all miss you every day and our lives will never be as full as when you were with us. I am tying so hard to be half as good a person as you were. Your example should make it easy but those are some big shoes to fill. I thank God every day I was lucky enough to be in your family and have you as my brother.

Daddy I can't believe that another year is almost over. I just don't know how I have managed to get through it. Well I do, I know it is by the grace of God. Daddy I miss you so much, there are so many things going on in my life and I wish you were here so I could talk to you.I just feel so cheated, I should have had so much more time with you.I wish you could be here to see Hailey,Hannah,and Jordan they are growing up! Hailey and Hannah just had birthdays they are 8 & 6 now.I know that you would be so proud of them!Your birthday is coming next Wednesday you will be 61yrs old. Did you know you are going to be a grandpa again? Yes, but this time it is Lucas! I haven't talked to him lately, he just don't come around much anymore, but he knows that I will always be here for him if he needs me.I love you so much daddy,I think about you each and everyday and the love you have for me will continue to be in my heart forever! Please always know how much I love you and it is only by God giving me strength to get through each day without you being here. I love you with my whole heart.Love Always Your daughter Kristie

Richard, Well it has been a year now since I have seen that loving and sweet smile. Those crazy looks you use to give me. I miss everything about you and wish that you could still be here with us. But in my heart I know you are better off now than being here with your illness. I find myself still hearing your voice from your bedroom. I sometimes jut go to your room just to see if you are there. I know that you are with us all when I go in the room. You are a guardian angel to me. I will love you forever and hope to see you again soon. You are the best brother anyone could ever have!! I miss you dearly. Love you with all my being. Your sister Karen

Daddy it has been one since you have been gone. Loving you still as if you were here .Daddy I miss you so much and the pain of you being gone feels the same as it did the day you left.There is a part of me that knows you are in a better place and you are not suffering anymore but the other part of me wants you back so I can just hold you and tell you how much I love you and what a wonderful father you are to me.Daddy I know that you can see me and I hope I am still making you proud.Hailey&Hannah love and miss you too! I talked to Lucas and he misses you so much and daddy I made you a promise and I will continue to always be here for Lucas no matter what!With each day that passes the pain of losing you still remains in my heart.Daddy I miss your smile, your laugh, your grin that you use to look at me with when you were kind of mad at me but not really. Well I miss everything about you! Janice is the one person that has truly helped me and without her love and support through this difficult time I don't know how I could get through it.Daddy you filled my world with your love and you will always be in my mind and my heart forever.I love& miss you so much.Your daughter Kristie

It has been one year today since you left and we miss you so. Seems like it's been forever and then again the pain is as fresh as if it were yesterday. The longer you are gone the more we realize what an amazing person you were and how much you brought to our lives. There was a tribute to you yesterday(Sunday) in the Stanly News. Kristie published a poem with your picture. We all remember every detail of this day last year. We don't really accept that you are gone. So many of our memories are of your last year with us and we are trying to remember the happy times we had together. We think about you every day and wonder if you know what is in our hearts and if we make you proud. I pray we do. "Love you, Mean it."

Daddy I can't believe that it has almost been a year since you have been gone.I miss you so very much and I think about you every single day.I wish that I could see you and just hold you and never let go. I miss you terribly.I don't think I would have made it this far without the strength of the Lord and the support of Bryan & the girls, and one other special person and that would be aunt Janice,she has been the best and I am so grateful to God for sending her to me. I am so thankful that God blessed us with you.My love for you will remain a treasure in my heart forever.With all my love your daughter Kristie I Love You!

We have somehow managed to make it through our first Thanksgiving holiday without Richard. It was and is so heartbreakingly painful but we have managed to get it behind us. We now have his birthday (Dec 13) and Christmas to endure and with a great deal of divine help, we will muddle through as difficult as it is. No one in the family is looking forward to the next few weeks. Of course we know he would not want us to be in so much pain but none of us know how to make it stop or even ease up. I recognize his death is so much harder for his children than anyone else. If there was someway to make it easier for them, any of us would. He is and always will be missed terribly. The hole he has left in our family cannot be filled.

Not a day goes by that I don't think about my daddy.I feel his sweet spirit with me everyday and I try to think about all the good times that we had but sometimes it is very hard because of all the pain that he endured.I do know that my daddy is in heaven with the lord,and that gives me comfort but it does not take the pain away.I was on the computer and I read a poem that reminded me of my daddy's illness.
They told me "Just have faith!"
"You must believe it's true!"
"Because believing is the key
To this illness leaving you!"
They quoted scriptures on healing
Said He died so we wouldn't be sick;
They told me if I'd just claim it,
This illness I would kick.
So I prayed and cried and woundered
Why the Lord seemed so unwilling
To heal my sickly body
And answer to my bidding.
My prayers I prayed unwavering
And I read all the right verses
But instead of the hopeful blessings
I felt my life was full of curses.
Then one day I was praying
The Lord spoke to me through a verse
He showed me that suffering produces
character and that my life could be much worse.
He showed me that the purpose
Of my suffering would be
A closer walk with Him
And his faithfulness I would see.
Because suffering and illness
Can bring us closer to our Jesus!
And when we rely on Him for strength
Others notice and believe us!
Because what speaks louder to this world than a
thankful,joyful man
Who doesn't appear to have much luck
But nonetheless can stand!
Our Lord, He draws us close
When we need Him to be near
He puts His arms around us
And teaches us not to fear.
So consider it pure joy, my friends
When you face trials of many kinds!
Our Lord has paused to teach you
That he will never leave your side.
Because my Bible makes it clear
That times of suffering will come
And that he will be there guiding me
Through each and every one.
And another thing he tells me is
That trials are in store.
Because the testing of my faith
Will help me grow to trust Him more!
My goal should not be to live
A life of comfort and of ease
It should be to become HOLY
And my Heavenly Father to please!
I Love You Daddy
With All Of My Heart!!!!!

If Richard could send us a message, this would be it. He would want us to find comfort in these words.
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on the snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush.
Of quiet birds in circled flight;
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there; I did not die.

There are no words to describe the pain and sorrow I am going through and how much I miss my daddy.He was not only my daddy but my best friend.He was always there for me no matter what and he sacrificed everything to be able to take care of me as I was growing up.My daddy was such an amazing man a loving father,husband,brother,ucle,and grandfather.A grandfather that loved his grandchildren so much.The love that he had for his children is unexplainable,he loved us more than his own life.I am the luckiest daughter in the whole world to have had the best daddy on earth.I thank God for allowing me to have more time with my daddy,and I thank God for the blessing of being able to be his daughter.The time we had together is so precious and the memories we have will forever be in my heart.Daddy I love you with all of my heart and I pray that God will keep giving me the strength through not having you by my side.Even though I can't see you physically I can definitely feel your sweet spirit with me each and every day until I see you again in Heaven.I love you my sweet and precious daddy.Love you always& forever,Your Daughter Kristie

I hadn't seen Rick in several years. That's why it's hard to believe he is gone. I've known him for years; even before he went to work with us. I've been thinking about why people liked him so much. He had so many good qualities but the one that comes to mind most is that even when he had problems, he still treated you the same everyday. If I was having a bad day all I had to do was go talk to Rick (and that happened alot)and he would always make me feel better. There wasn't much we didn't talk about over the years and I've missed him. I knew Rick as a fun-loving and very trust-worthy person. He was a big brother to me when some other family members weren't available to me. I miss him. I am very sorry for your family's loss.

So sad to hear of Ricks departure,
He was such an extrodinary person in so many ways. he had such a great personality. He loved his family so much.I miss the time we used to hang out together..I've thought of Rick a lot since we lost contact.....May God bless this family in the hour of need. Blessing to you, Caroline,Kristie, & Lucas.

We will remember Richard with a smile, because that's what he did - he made you smile and laugh. Richard was a unique individual with a great capacity for love. Can't remember a time when he wouldn't share a hug! Please know that Richard, as well as the entire family, is in our hearts.

Richard was not only a brother to me but was my best friend. As I took care of him during his illness I came to know even a deeper and more caring person that I thought anyone could be. He loved Kristie and Lucas more than life its self. I believe without them he couldn't have endured this illness for such a lenghty time. I will always have him in my heart and soul. As life goes on I will never forget the love and joy from just sharing my time with him. He will be with me every day till I see him again. With All My Love.

Richard has been the most amazing person both in happy times and in his illness. To know him was to love him. With all that he endured, he never complained and was grateful to God for every moment he was given with his family. As a member of his family, I know we will all miss him terribly but are happy he no longer has to endure. He is in our hearts and will be forever.

Kristie and Caroline, I am so sorry for your loss. Rick and I were as close as brothers several years back. Although we have lost the day to day contact we once had, he has been in my thoughts over the years. I hope it is a comfort to you knowing he is in a better place now with no pain. He and his father are probably on the 1st tee together!

To The Family;
May you draw comfort from the inspired Scriptures and look forward to the promised ressurection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. Made assured and guaranteed by the death and resurrection of Christ Jesus. Hebrews 10:6 assures us that "God (Jehovah) is not unrighteous so as to forget the love you've shown in his behalf". For He is the God of living and the dead for all are living unto him. May your family draw close to God as He draws close to you in these times of sorrow. Sincerely,
