HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!
Today marks your 74th birthday and the second one since you left. It's been a long hard road for me but it seems to be getting a little better as time passes by, even though there is no amount of time that will fully heal the loss of you. It makes it a lil bit harder with the cancer that's eating away at mom now. I'm strong but I still have moments of weakness where I'm not sure what to do or where to turn for the strength needed to continue to fight. I took your boat out today to celebrate your day. I know you were with me, I could feel your presence and it put a huge smile on my face and for them moments I felt so at peace for the first time since you've been gone. The times are tough and life is hard but I sure am glad that I still have Amanda by my side to remind me of everything I have to lose if I give up. She's the love of my life and without her I don't think I'd be writing these words to you right now. She has done such an awesome job stepping in to be my rock......as you were my whole life. We've had our problems but when push comes to shove she's been there to pick me up and keep me in line. I miss you so much and think about all the memories we made together not only as father and son but as the best of friends. Thank you for all the memories and the support you have given me with unconditional love. You might be gone from my life in the physical form but you live on through the live and memories of everybody who met you. Until we ride again.................
Stay strong, Stand tall, Be loud, Be proud!!!!!!!
Endless Love n Respect,
Bobby J. Klimek

Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years........
I made it through them all
Thinking of you always
Helped me to stand tall.
I would have given anything to have you here with me
But you were on my mind and in my heart.......
Every day right from the start.
The holidays weren't the same without you but I made the best of it.
I love you and I miss you to NO end.
Until we ride again...........

Dad....
Another candle...another day without you. It is still hard for me but I continue to put one foot in front of the other and move forward. I knew this was gonna be hard but I never thought it would be this difficult to accept the fact that you are gone. I feel lost without my best friend there for me cuz that's what you were. You were more than just a father. You were the best friend anybody could have wanted or asked for. I miss you and think of you daily.

Dad....
Another day without you and it doesn't seem to be getting any easier but I keep my head high and fight through cuz that's what you taught me to do. It's still hard to believe that you're not here anymore but you will always remain in my heart and my memories. Til we ride again.
