AN ODE TO MY FATHER-
There once was a man named Anthony,
Who fell in love with a fantasy,
So he married a Belle,
We call her Estelle,
And the rest is all history.

Thanks, Dad,
You are missed already.
John

My dad and I always found it so hard to say good-bye when I came to visit. We would say I love you then hug,cry and I would run out of the house. We had a unspoken understanding of how much we loved each other. This is the hardest good-bye but I know he will love me forever. Judy(the middle child)

We are sorry for your loss . He loved you both very much and you both were there when he needed you most, he was so proud of you and the strength and courage you showed throughout this ordeal. Just remember he would want you to stay strong and remember all the good memories you shared,and to continue to make more and he will be sharing them with you, when you feel a breeze in your hair or the sun shining on you, it's him letting you know he is close.
