I so very much love my daddy & Kaylin loves her grandfather! This man was my 1st & only true love!!! I will miss seeing his smiling face & hearing his stories! Boy, this man could go on & on w/ his stories. For those of you that have never had the privilege of knowing him, you sure missed out on meeting a remarkable man...for those of you that did know him, you knew he was a man of his word & a man of respect! He would give the shirt off his back for anyone in need! I could sit & go on & on for hours but 1 thing I do know for sure is I hope to be just like him 1 day. I love you daddy & I'll ALWAYS be your "BABY GIRL"!!! Till I see you again, tell Mawmaw Mayes, Mawmaw Hudson , Pawpaw Mayes, Pawpaw Bush, Aunt Janice, & Uncle Jimmy that I love them & I'll see them again 1 day! I don't know how I'll go on w/out you because you were the 1 I always wanted to share my accomplishments with! I'll take care of Momma for you, as will Rhonda & Lori! I love you more than you ever knew & I could've never asked for a better father or grandfather for Kaylin! I am so thankful she got to spend as much time w/ you & Momma that she did! You will always be a part of my decision making...ill ask myself "What would your daddy do?" I hope to make you proud of me from heaven!! I love you w/ all my heart & soul & I'll miss you till I get to see you again!!! ???
