Still missing you bro. Sure would enjoy showing you my RV. And could use your expertise on how everything works. Kristel has been a rock for me she has a lot of McCarthy in her. Now she has had another loss in her life and I´m trying to comfort her and help her be strong. Life has some hard bumps but we struggle and survive. Love you always ... keep dancin´ sister Toots.

My brother. I have neglected this time with you. I was very busy with taking care of my Norman. He passed on March 27th of this year. Dementia took him from me. And I miss him so much. I hope you have met up with him and have reminisced about the many years ago. It´s getting g cold these days so keep warm. I miss you still always will. Thinking of you now specially because it´s hunting season. Norman had a friend shoot for him last year, he wasn´t able to hold the gun. But we had meat for the winter and this winter too. Hugs for you and Rose. Love you both. Sister Toots. And happy birthday early.

HI Nick, Haven't talk to you here for too long a time but think f so often. Want to wish you a Happy Birthday in a few days. As you know our Mom is not doing too well. The cancer is wearing her down, but she is so determined and strong willed that she is amazing all of us, others that meet her, and most of all the Drs. She was 97 this year and really enjoyed the reunion. Weather was wonderful. I will be leaving on the 24th of Nov. to be with her for a couple months. She can't be by herself, so we all take turns staying with her. Keep your loving arms around her, she misses you so very much. Love you, stay warm....your sister, Toots

Hi Nick, life is wonderful but can get too busy to visit the ones you love. I've only been to see you once this year but I am going to tomorrow, Mother's Day. Mom has a special message for you, and I will bring it to you, you are in her prayers everyday and misses you ever so much. Stay warm cuz we are having some unusal cold days lately. You will come into my head at the strangest times and I just have to stop and give you a hug from my heart. I've planted a flower for you and Rose at the cabin, and if the ground squirrels don't eat the roots they will always be there and help me get thru some tough days when I think of you and Dad and I think of Rose when I trim or pick a Rose from my garden here at home. Gosh, I miss you and love you just everyday... your sister, Toots

My father, I miss you. I am sorry I could not attend the reunion, once again. My heart is always there, and with your family, they have all been so supportive of our loss of you this helps me to realize you are still with the kids and I and just how much love you and your family has had for us all.

I love you always, Dad.

My big brother Nick,I have such good memories of visits to you in CO. Always so proud of your family you were. I know you still are as you watch over them. We felt your spirit at the reunion. Your daughters drove your truck and brought Kasey, and you were there with us all. I know you are pain free now and dancing with your forever love, Rose. Love you and miss you, Tracey

My Brother Nick! Just because you're not with us in this world, doesn't mean you're not thought of every day! Always loved, always missed! You left way too soon, but I guess God needed you.

I wore the scarf Nick. I'm sure you know. You may not have completed the project but you started it with me on your mind and it put a smile on your face.(that was the goal as you well know now) Having help with it to finish it and send it to me with the hat too, was oh so special because I know you were laughing and smiling while doing it. It will keep me warm this winter and you in my heart. I have the note you wrote with it and will always cherish that and the memory of the whole story. I smile when I think of it. We have that memory and that chuckle to always share. It keeps me close to you and always will, it wiped my tears and helped me grieve and always will. I'm missing you and always will. Love you, your sister Viv

Dear Nick,I wish I had known you better.But we had good memories even though you we're my big brother and not living at home by the time I grew up.But one time I will never forget is you taught me how to ice skate backwards and you were very good at it. Just you and I skated around the entire lake together one year and it was so much fun!! I am sure you are ice skating and dancing in Heaven with your True love Rose. Love you and always will. Your little sister Queeny

Thank you for allowing me to pay my respects to Nick, a man not to be forgotten. God bless you as you hold your father's memories forever in your heart and at the same time rejoice with him that he is reunited with his wife, Rosemary. Time does not heal all things, but God's love certainly does.

Nichole and Janel,
My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead. Please let me be your friend, support and shoulder to cry on during this time of sorrow. I did not know your father, yet by the character both of you possess, I know he was a wonderful father.

My Dad, A man everyone loved, A man who taught us kids to work hard for a dollar, A man who taught to not to give up when times we hard, and A man who loved us no matter what I did or any of us kids did. Dad you taught me a lot through out my life, you even taught me how to put a toilet in, lol. You also taught me and the rest of us Everything about horses and cattle..And that is one thing I will never forget. I love you and miss you, You will always be in my heart, tell mom that I love and miss her too. But tell God he didn't have to take you so soon. I love you both.
Love, Janel
