Dear Mary, I have wanted to reach out to you and the family, what can one say? There are no words, only feelings. I've known all of you since I was 5 yrs old, many- MANY memories growing up.
I think I saw Deb today in Kohl's and I just couldn't take a second look to see if it was really her or not because it wasn't the time or place for tears, even if she could refrain, I'm certain I wouldn't have been able to and didn't want to upset her. The one thing I will never forget is his laugh. A contagious laugh so much so that he didn't even need the jokes that went with it, though he did have some doozies to tell! I love you guys, we may not all be physically close in this world, but we are and always will remain spiritually connected. Peace and strength, thoughts and prayers are with all of you. xo

Daddy you were my life my everything. You always were there for moi anytime I needed you. You got me through my sickest days. But I will remember you telling me you have to beat this for your girls, I will keep that promise to you. I couldn't have asked for a better Daddy. Eric considered you his Dad and always said he couldn't have asked for a better Grandfather to his kids. He wants you to know if he turns out to be half the father you were he will know he did a good job. We promise to keep them safe for you & that though Hopie may have been young we will make sure she never forgets you ever. All the funny faces you her & Ava would make. And Victoria you will always be her 1st love. That will never change for us both, you were the 1st man we all loved. You made the world Laugh. No doubt and you will remain to make us Laugh for lifetimes to come. You may be gone but we've already have had your sign your with us. May you Rest In Peace & finally make up for all the places you never got to see. We already know you've been to Florida till we meet again. I love you Daddy your Fabulous Baby Girl ???????
