Did you think I would forget about you? I miss you so much. I know I haven´t been by but I promise I will soon. I think about you often and always wish I could say good bye. I just want to say Merry Christmas Vern. And Guess what? I´m having a grand baby boy soon. I wish you could´ve met him. Love you!!

You profoundly touched my life. Your wisdom, kindness, and unwavering support shaped who I am today. Though you are no longer with us, your impact remains a guiding light. I miss you deeply and will forever cherish the moments we shared. Rest in peace, dear friend.

Mr. Gaskin was my high school physical education teacher and basketball coach in the 80's. He was tough, fair and thoroughly enjoyed teaching us undersized guards how to play with the big guys. He was loved by every member of our teams back in the day. I know this is late and my belated condolences to his family and friends. I became a physical education teacher because of his influence and while I won't leave a legacy like him, hope I am doing enough to be proud citizen and great person, just like Mr. Gaskin, R.I.P.

Hey big fella! I miss you so much. I wish I could spend more time with you. I miss having you in my life. You made it known to me you was watching over me this past weekend while I was at work. Thank you for being my hero even in spirit. I love you.

You were my favorite gym teacher and always understood us no matter what we came from or where we were headed! You gave tough love but I always knew it came from a place of compassion and to toughen me up! I have always missed you and hope you are in a great place now!
