Seems like yesterday. 22 years now where did they go? 22 years I don't know. I sit and wonder they have gone. You were always something to see strong as a rock. You can take your time building that castle ( your brown eyed girl is being taken care of ) Besidea you probably are having a good time with Mantra, Rick Marvel and Davo just to mention a few. Living by the sword. You are missed so much there really is no words to express. I'll see you in my `dreams..
Love you always,

Daddy,
19 years ago today and it feels like yesterday you transitioned to Heaven. A lot has changed since that day. Life has never been the same, but you already knew that. I know that you're with me still and that one day I'll see you again. Last year I fought for my life and I'm still alive today because of God and because I still have things left to do here on earth. I know you were there with me every step of the way. As hard as it was, I was at peace because I know that this life is temporary and that no matter the outcome, I would be in loving hands.
I keep you alive in my heart and in my life every day because your spirit does live on and will never leave me.
All of those talks you had with me stay with me and help me through the hardships in life. It's like you were preparing me for what was to come in my life and I want to say thank you. You went through so much heartache in your life growing up and you didn't let that change your future. You were successful and provided for us in every way. You were a star, a character unlike none other. You have left a mark in this world that will never diminish. I am better because of you. I am better because you taught me and I am better because I'm so much like you and yes, that can be a good thing and sometimes not so good (you know what I mean. LOL)
I will continue to honor you daily and your grandson is soon to have a boy and they are using your name Eugene as his middle name. I hope you are smiling :)
I love you so much.
Your daughter,
Mindy

Missing you dad, as you know you are always on my mind & I live each day as you would have. No regrets right? Live for yourself and make the most of it. Don't let anyone make you feel not worthy because I am. Thank you for teaching me how to be strong when there are so many reasons not to be. I will survive, I will succeed and I will make you proud. I love you!!!!!

Daddy, I have to laugh right now, I just read my last entry and noticed your name was spelled wrong HA HA,that was a typo obviously but how funny is that!!
Just wanted you to know you were on my mind as you are every day, all the time. I miss you more than I could ever express. I guess I still dont believe you are gone from this earth, forever is a hard thing to accept. I will never stop missing you and look forward to the day that I see you again. That is going to be one amazing day!!!!!!!
I love you I love you I love you
You are the best father, the best friend, anyone could ever ask for or hope for. You were the definition of good.
Anyone who ever had the pleasure to meet you and truly get to know YOU is one very blessed individual. AND..to those who were too intimidated and jealous of who Gene Moffatt was then they will never know the greatness of a true man.
I am lucky though and very blessed because that greatness of a man was my father!! How awesome is that????
XOXO you mean everything to me. I love you and miss you but I know you are around and for that.....makes me very happy!!
Love you always and forever and ever,
Your daughter, Mindy

7 years....today marked the 7th year you went to heaven. It feels just like yesterday.
When I talk to you and tell you I need you, I want you to show me your around, I ask you to please give me signs and I now want to tell you to stop. Stop doing things for me. It's about time you start doing things for yourself. I am not going to be greedy and continue to want everything out of you because it's not fair. You gave your life to us and now you deserve to do whatever you want Daddy. I'm okay, I can do this now. I can move on in my life and I will make it.
Thank you, Thank you for always being there...even in heaven.
I know you are still going to pop in here and now again but only do it if that is what you want. I'm not going to ask you because you have done so much for me and I now want to do something for you.
I know one day I will see you again, I know that for a fact. I feel it in my heart and the type of God we have will make it happen.
You are one beautiful spirit. When I talk about you to other people, I feel such a sense of honor and am so proud to call you, Eugune Joy Moffatt, my father.
There is only one of you and I was lucky enough to of known you. Thank you.
I will however continue to talk to you, tell you how much I love you but I wont ask you to do anything else because you have already done so much. This is now your time Daddy, have fun which I'm sure you are already having.
I know your death was sudden and a shock but you are FREE now, you are in heaven. Don't worry about us, we are going to make it. You know we are all going to be together again one day and that will be a great day!!
So, it may have took me 7 years to tell you this but I just realized that it's unfair of me to keep asking you for things when you deserve more.
I LOVE YOU DADDY, you are so missed, so loved, so adored.
One day, we'll see each other again. I can't wait.
I love you always and forever, your daughter.

It's raining, how you loved the rain.
Seven years.............Your song to
me that you sang and called me from
any place you could play on the juke
box, played today, Have I told You
Lately That I Love you, I knew you were
near. Also played "There's no Sunshine
when She's gone" and Sweet Baby James
Taylor with that song about building
castles in the sky, which I know you
are doing. That song goes back thirty
some years. We planned ahead I guess,
for that castle.........can't wait to
enjoy being in that castle with you.
I love you and miss you more than any
one knows. Love, your Brown Eyed Girl

Hi Daddy,
GOD I miss u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, mommy is in Spain right now going on a Mediterranean cruise but of course you knew that already :) I bet you are with her right now. I am so proud of her for moving on with her life which I know is hard. She feels as if moving on is moving on without you but that isn't possible. The love you 2 had was unbreakable. All you ever wanted was for her to be happy. Seeing her smile would make your heart beat even louder. I feel so blessed to have seen 2 people love each other so much the way that you & mom loved one another. Even if I dont ever get the chance to experience that myself, having parents who treasured each other is enough love for me. I can't tell you how much you mean to me even though you already know, I wish I could see you and talk to you and hear your voice. I miss you so much. It hurts because I miss you. There are 2 people in this world who I would do anything for and that is you & Mom. I hate it that you aren't here physically. I just miss you more than words can express. We all do. Mom, Kim, me. It's really hard living without you. You were everything to us. I hope you knew that when you were here. I know we all get busy in our own lives and we want and want and want everything out of you and you always came thru. I just hope and wish we weren't as selfish to not want everything for you because you definetly deserved it. I do know Daddy, I do know you deserved more from us so please know I am sorry. I am sorry I didn't spend more time with you because I was too busy with my own things in life. I am so sorry because now I sit here and long for wishful memories I dont have. I took you for granted. I thought you would live for a long time so I never thought I was going to lose one of the best things that ever happened to me. I really hate that you are gone. But I just hope you are happy in heaven, I hope you still hear me and I hope one day I will be able to hear you again. God as my witness, he knows my heart and he knows the empty space inside of it that left when you died. I have been hiding in pain for almost 7 years and I cant do it anymore. I need to do it for you, I have to start living again and what I mean by that is experiencing life not just going through the motions. I've never done without you, I always had you in my life so when I lost you, I lost my strength. I lost my soul. As the years go by I find myself saying the same things you used to say, looking for the understanding you always longed for. Wishing and hoping someone would want to see how I was doing. I think we are both this way because we love people too much and we just want the same in return. We have great big hearts who would do anything for anyone but with those great big hearts we get hurt and then we wonder why and it takes a huge toll out of us and we just go through the motions, we do what we need to do to get by but we aren't living. We aren't truly alive. We are just here.
I know to the outside no one would understand what I am writing but you, you will because I am you and I'm darn proud of it. I have the best of both worlds. YOU and MOM.
So, enjoy your mediterranean cruise with mom. I know you are there with her and I hope she feels your presence because she misses the heck out of you.
They need to come up with a much more grand word than love because I love you so much I cant express it enough.
To my daddy, my hero, my strength, my courage, my honesty, my loyalty, my everything............. you are the best!!!
Love,
Mindy

Hi Dad,
I love you and miss you. It seems day by day someone else I know ends up in heaven. I keep deleting #s from my cell phone because people keep passing away, it's sad but it's only sad for me, I know heaven must be a fun place to be with so many wonderful people there. I guess there is still a plan for me here on earth and I look forward to it.
Anyways, not much to report. As you know the economy is not in a good place so I was laid off of work. I have been out of work for 4 weeks but am trying to remain positive for I know something positive will come out of this. It's too easy to get negative and to throw myself a huge pity party which I am known to do at times HA HA but not this time. Maybe the world is going through this so we learn a lesson, maybe we take certain things for granted and dont appreciate it the way we should. All I know is that I will do my best to strive for bigger and better things. I will never stop learning and trying to get better at whatever path I take. Life is good, you always had a smile and tried to make others happy and have fun. I want to be that person and have been told that I have those qualities and I have you to thank for that. I have qualities from you and mom and that is what makes me the person I am today...strong, smart, dedicated, beautiful HA HA you know I had to throw that in there didnt you? Well, enough about me................. :)
I love u daddy, you continue to be a part of my life no matter that you are not here physically, I know you are here and that is all that counts.
I love you I love you I love you, nope I cannot say it enough.
Your daughter and friend,
Mindy

Dad, I dont know what happened but I typed a long message to you on Monday. I dont know why it hasnt posted but I know you know what it said as it came from my heart. I love you and I am keeping my promise to you, I wont let you down. You already know the outcome even though I dont but it will be something that I will overcome through my faith and my strength. I have God in my life and you, I dont think I could ask for any better. I miss you and I love you and I hope you hear me when I talk to you. I think you do but havent you figured out a way to talk back to me yet? HA HA I'm still waiting and will continue to be until the day I hear your voice again. I look forward to it Daddy. You are my best friend. I love you.

Daddy,
Just wanted you to know that I love and miss you very much. There isnt a day or minute or second that goes by that you are not on my mind. I keep trying to remember your voice, your laughter as I am so scared that I will forget that. That is something that I will make sure doesn't happen.
As you already know, I bought my first home. I found it on the 13th of the month and I live on 113 ave. If that wasnt you up there working your magic with God I dont know what is. I know you are still a part of my life but isn't the same. I want you here. I really miss our talks. You are the only one that truly knows me and understands me. You were the person that got to know me and didnt try to control me. You accepted me...for me. I hope you know how thankful I am for that. You put life in me but you allowed me to take my own path in life. What a beautiful person you were.
God, do I miss you. There isnt anything that I wouldnt do to have another day with you. You really are my best friend. I feel like a part of me died with you as I havent felt 'alive' these past 5 years. I feel like I am trying though but then again I feel like I'm doing what I can just to be able to live but not really "live". I miss my life Dad. I dont know how to live everyday without you being a part of it. I have such faith in God, I really do and I am sure you know that already. I know that you are also in a much better place. I just wish I knew more than what I do now. I wish I could be stronger, I know that I am strong but sometimes I need someone to lean on and I dont have that person in my life. That person was you. You were my rock. Now I dont have it. When I would have bad days and I needed advice I would call you. You never disappointed me. You would give me your advice and you would tell me how much you loved me and by the time we hung up the phone I felt so much better. I felt loved. I never felt alone. Now I do. It's not you fault Daddy, I know if you had your choice, you would be here w/me. But then again, I'm sure heaven is a beautiful place and maybe you wouldnt. HA HA
I do promise you that I wont give up, I wont give up on myself. You had to endure so much in life and you overcame every single obstacle that stood in your way. You did it alone. I admire you for that and because of that and because I am your daughter, I know you have instilled that quality into me. I havent cried in awhile but typing this I have tears down my face and I'm relieved because I have been wanting to cry for a long time. I love you dad. I love you forever. I cannot tell you enough times.
Your daughter, Mindy

Another year without you, lots of
wonderful "New Year" memories that
we shared for thirty-five plus years. Those memories and more are
what help to keep me somewhat sane.
I miss you,
May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face, and the rains fall soft upon
your fields. How you loved the rain!
And until we meet again, May God
hold you in the palm of his hand.
Love always from your Irish best
friend. Have I told you lately?

I cant believe its been five years. Geez I still have the picture from Gusman hangin on the fridge, so you know I think about Gene at least once a day.
He was a big, strong man; with arms the size of my thighs.Yet for all his size and strength, there was a soft side of Gene that he only let his friends see.It was a warmth...a sese of kindness.Like when he spoke of Sandy and the girls, or the old days as a musician.
If you were Gene's friend; there was no limit to what he would do for you.(And if you crossed him....look out).
What I remember most about Gene are the stories. The man could tell stories for days.and he alwayys had my attention.
I looked up to Gene; as a man, a technician and as a brother!
I'll always miss ya Poppa Smurf.

You are loved & missed, as I know you know. Have I told you lately
that I love you? I hear your thoughts at least twice a week,(daily in my heart) you are in my heart and in my soul, and I know you are making our castles in the sky. Having a hard time waiting to be with you. You are my passion and love, as you always told
me.
Miss you, Love Snady

Hi Daddy,
This is so weird, I wrote in here a month ago and now it's not here?? I wonder what happened.
Anyway, Bucket is with you now and I know that when you both saw each other it must of been great!! He missed you so much and I know you missed him just the same. I came by to say goodbye to him and could tell in his eyes he was ready to come home to you. I told him how much I loved him and that he would be fine. I wasnt able to be with him when he passed although I wish I was able too but there is alot of things that I wish were different but aren't but I know I dont have to tell you that as you know all that is going on in 'my' life. You know me better than anyone.
I understand more now than I did before. Just wanted you to know that. ;)
I'm looking at your picture right now at work, your hair looked great! ha ha Your such an amazing man, father, friend, etc...
I just wanted you to know how much I love you, although you already do know because I tell you all the time.
Give Bucket a big hug and a kiss for me, hopefully Munchkin is up there with you too.
I love u daddy!

Hi Daddy,
I love you! How many times can I say that to you? ALOT! The love I have for you is never ending. Everyday that goes by I miss you even more. People tell me that in time it will get easier but for me it doesnt. The longer your not in my life, the longer I dont hear your voice & your laugh I miss you even more and it hurts. I am doing my best to get my life out of neutral and in first gear but its not easy but I will do it..for me, for God and for YOU and Mom. You sacrificed so much for everyone else and you deserved the best in return which you usually never got. I know you are happy now, God put you on this earth so we can realize that there are people who are willing to do anything and everything to put a smile on someone's face, a person who is the definition of a true friend, a man who loves his wife unconditionally and will do anything to see that beautiful smile. You are it. You are everything and furthermore you are my hero. You have taught me so many things and you always would ask me if I listened and yes dad, I listened to every word and am taking your knowledge with me through the rest of my life. I have to stop allowing the pain in my heart from people who have let me down take control of my every day life. You told me that people would disappoint me and that I cant count on it and I shouldnt count on it because that is putting too much pressure on the other person. WOW, so many things you have said were so true and I thank you for that. I didnt always tell you when you were alive but you have been a extraordinary mentor for me. I love you so much.
Your in my mind, my heart, my thoughts, my actions, my daily routine and you will continue to be.
My Dad, My Friend.
I love you.

Daddy,
It's going to be 2 years since you have been gone tomorrow and I still cant believe it. It seems that I miss you more and more each day and it hurts so much still. This world is not the same without you and never will be. Although I know that God brought you home for a reason I still cant believe you really arent here. When will I ever be able to be okay? I just dont think I ever will be. It's not something a depression pill can cure, its my heart and only you coming back will make everything better but I know that is not going to happen. Damn!!!! I hate this so much because I want you with me in this world. WHY do I have to live the rest of my life without you? I dont want it this way. Sometimes I say out loud that I cant wait to pass away so I can be with you again. I am sure they think I am crazy for thinking that way but its true. I have never wanted so bad enough in my life then to be with you again. Dont worry, I wont do anything stupid but on that day that God decides its my time to return home, it will be a great day because I will be with you again. I am trying Dad, I am trying with all my heart to go on and live my life but it is so hard. I hope you can help me along the way because I so do want to make you & Mom proud of me.
As I am sure you know, Kim has gone through so much the past 7 weeks and through your love and strength you are helping her fight and I just know you are with her and us. It's amazing how much she loves you and is asking for you. It saddens me that the first thing she asked for when she woke up is where you were. I just told her you were working and in a way that was the truth. You were working along with God to heal her. We all miss you and Mommy is trying to be as strong as she can be. I believe its all because of you too. You are helping her through this even though she doesnt realize it I know its you. We have gone through so much these past 2 years and we all miss you more than words can say.
You are in my heart, always will be and please know that we will all be together again one day. Please continue to be a part of my life and mom & kim's as well as your other daughters Lynne & KC because we still need you.
And if you can please show me a sign that you are with me. Come into my dream and talk to me. I LOVE YOU DAD!!!! You are the best!!!!!!! I cant wait to hold you and give you a big hug and dance with you.
Love,
Mindy

Hi Daddy,
It's been awhile since I have left a message on here but you know it hasnt been long since I have talked to you. You are a part of my everyday life and always will be. The song below is a song written by Beyonce for her daddy and everytime I hear it I think of you and wanted you to know that. Although some of the lyrics do not pertain to anything that has happened in our lives but I just think its beatiful because I do want my unborn son & husband to be like you.
I remember when you use to take me on a
Bike ride everyday on the bayou (you remember that? we were inseparable)
And I remember when you could do no wrong
You'd come home from work and I jumped in your arms when I saw you
I was so happy to see you (I was so excited, so happy to see you)
Because you loved me I overcome
And I'm so proud of what you've become
You've given me such security
No matter what mistakes I make you're there for me
You kill my disappointments and you heal my pain
You understood my fears and you protected me
Treasure every irreplaceable memory and that's why…
I want my unborn son to be like my daddy
I want my husband to be like my daddy
There is no one else like my daddy
And I thank you for loving me
I still remember the expression on your face
When you found out I'd been on a date and had a boyfriend (my first boyfriend, you should have seen your face)
I still remember I caught you crying cause of my tattoo
Could have said beyonce I told you so
Instead you said you'd get one too (even my mama said y'all get one just like mine)
Words can't express my boundless gratitude for you
I appreciate what you do
You've given me such security
No matter what mistakes I make you're there for me
You kill my disappointments and you heal my pain
You understand my fears and you protected me
Treasure every extraordinary memory and that's why…
I want my unborn son to be like my daddy
I want my husband to be like my daddy
There is no one else like my daddy
And I thank you for loving me
Even if my man broke my heart today
No matter how much pain I'm in I will be okay
Cause I got a man in my life that can't be replaced
For this love is unconditional it won't go away
I know I'm lucky
Know it ain't easy
For men who take care of their responsibilities
Love is overwhelming
Can't help my tears from falling
I love you so much daddy
(Thank you, you've done so much for me. I love you daddy.)
I get so emotional daddy, every time I think of you
I get so emotional daddy, every time I think of you
There is no one else like my daddy
No one else replace my daddy…
I love you Daddy and because of you I will succeed in my life because I know you are a part of it no matter WHAT ANYONE SAYS!!
I love you and thank you God for taking care of him.

well it has been over a year and your presence is always everywhere even in places at the least most expected places. I wish you were here to see what i have become from my surgery it is amazing what the doctors actually could do. I also wish you would of followed your own advice and went to the doctors and took better care of yourself i think you would of still been here but, then you might of been in worse condition and i know you wouldn't of been happy. but i miss you so much sometimes that i can't stand it! I don't really have anyone that i can tell what i am really feeling because i don't want to get mommy or anyone upset. I wish you would talk to me or show me in someway that your with me. You should see your dog he just won't pick up his feet you would think after 11 years they would be ready by now. hahahah and he takes up the whole bed no matter if he is in mine or mom's. He misses you along with the cats. Do you hear me when i talk to you or get so mad that i go off and rant and rave at you!! i know you know i don't mean it i just have to have my moments now and then. mommy seems to be doing better even though at times she seems lost without you. I went to the convention center on the anniversary of your death- i wanted to see where you died. everyone there was nice but they all probably though i had lost my mind and became crazy. But i thought maybe you were stuck there and i wanted to get you out of there and let you go to a better place. Anyway xmas is coming and believe it or not mommy actually wanted to decorate this year i am the one that really is not into it i did all my shopping just because that is the thing to do-and a few times there were moments i went to pick things up to buy for you and had to stop myself and remind myself you weren't going to be there. It really sucks. But i hope you have a nice christmas up there with everyone tell grandma and grandpa and any other family members you have run into that i say hi and i love them. I am taking care of things down here the best that i can. If you have any pull up there let mommy stay down here for a real long time please i need her here with me even though she wants to be with you- you will still be there. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND I WILL KEEP MY END OF THE BARGAIN STILL I JUST HAVE TO FIND THE STRENGTH. LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER THE WIND BENEATH MY WINGS MY HERO MY DAD...........
LOVE KIMBERLY

Dad,
I want to thank you for coming thru for me 2 weeks ago. It meant the world to me to find out that you are still apart of us. I always believed in my heart that although you are not here physically you are here spiritually and always will be. I know that you hear me when I tell you that I love you and talk to you about my life. I must admit it is so hard to be here without you. So many times I wish I was with you and I cannot wait for the day to hug you. When I think of you or look at your picture, I think of how proud & lucky I am to be your daughter. I have been through alot since you have gone, but I feel that I have also grown alot also as a person. I am trying so hard to be happy. Its not easy. You were the only one who ever understood me. I guess its because I am so much like you. :)

Our first anniversary apart. I received your gift through our daughter, and will be kept in my heart, as our love and friendship, forever and ever. Our crystal castle is beautiful. I love our children, yours, mine and ours, but I only live for the day I can join you and continue our journey. Till then, please keep watching over me, I need your strength, I know you are doing what you can, but I need more, I need you. Love forever.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I hope your having the biggest and best party ever. After 64 yrs it is probably the first bday you get to spend with your mom and dad and I really hope this is true! Since you can't be here with us it would be nice to know you are sharing your day with others that love you. Have a big piece of cake for me and I will have some guinness for you. Happy Birthday again and I love you and miss you!
P.S. If you get any presents don't try to guess what it is before you open them-that was our family game!

well it is my first fathers day without you here and I can tell you it feels very strange not being able to spend the day with you, buy you something, send you a card or even be able to hug you.But you are
in my thoughts every minute of everyday. Some song reminds me of you or some saying or I catch my-self picking the phone up to call you to tell you something funny only to realize i don't think you will be answering the phone where you are. I remember you telling me how you taught me how to swim (by just throwing me in) and my first drink of soda out of bottle(just like a pro) I just wish you were going to be here to do that for my children (your grandchildren) you would of had so much fun let alone them. Also I want to thank you for the times that you lifted me in the air,and the times you lifted my heart through your understanding care. I thank you for your wisdom and your fatherly protection, your firm! but gentle hand to guide me in the right direction. I thank you for your great support, for all you said and did, but most of all I thank you for the person you were. You were truly the wind beneath my wings. You were and are my Hero! Happy Fathers Day! Love you always and a day!

daddy, well i hope you know by now that i finally after all i went through had my surgery! Of course I wasn't as excited as I would of been if you were there as usuall when I woke up. I was hoping that once they put me under that you would of contacted me in someway and visited for awhile. If you would of met my doctor you would of like him he looked like a little leprechaun but, you probably would of had a little apprehension once you found out he was 75. Oh well all went well in the end. Now what are you doing up there because we need a little help down here dealing with your cars and parts. Since everything was is in your head and you took all the inventory with you we are having kind of a hard time-do you think you could help us out. I know you are probably up there having a good time with dale sr,your parents,mantesta and the rest but hey HELP US OUT A LITTLE SO WE DO THE RIGHT THING BY YOU!! Sean is helping out alot he really loved you. Doug (your accountant) has given some good advice to mommy and has helped. Now I won't mention any names but others who I thought would come through and we would be able to rely on they haven't and I hope you know this. I talk to you everyday trying to get some sign-sometimes the bathrooom light blinks and I think it is you but i haven't mastered sos yet.hahah- I miss you so very much. Ok on a lighter note you would probably go crazy at the house (well it probably wouldn't be like it is if you were there) but, besides pickle-head i bought mommy another parakeet-and i have 2 turtles (charlie and sam) and now there are 6 beta fish along with wally and pumkin and of course Bucket who just got a plastic pool for the summer. He misses you alot also. Well I guess i should let you go and with all this news maybe you will come visit-I did plant some sunflowers in the front yard and i try to keep the yard up so it looks like a nice green carpet for you. So come and visit there is alot to see!!!!! and of course there is guiness in the fridge with some salsa and chips!!!!! till next time! I love you with all my heart! Tell dale sr that his son is doing really good. Tell gramma and grampa I said hi!
Love Kim

Daddy,
I am so proud to have you as my father. I love you so much and I know that the kind of bond that we had will never end. The conversations we had, the laughs will always be remembered and missed. I know that you are still with me and will always be with me until the day that I come home to you. That day will be a great day! I cant wait to see you and I know that you want me to succeed in life that way when I do come home you can tell me how proud you are of me. I hope you know what kind of affect you had on so many people. You are truly a legend and you have made your mark in this world and will forever be remembered by so many people. You have made me feel lucky to of had you as my father. God took you away from us and I know it must of been for a good reason because we were not ready for you to leave so soon. I hope you can comfort mommy and give her the strength to get through this and please touch her heart and speak to her and let her know that you will be together again one day. She loves you so much and her whole life is changed and she needs you so much. Also all of your children and grandchildren love you and miss you.
If you can, please show me a sign that you are okay and come around as often as you like because I would love to see you or feel your presence around me. I will live my life from this day forward with you on my mind. I will make the best of every single day of my life just the way you did. I will work hard and provide for myself and my future just the way you did so well. You have showed me and taught me so much that even though your not around "physically" you will always be in my heart.
P.S. Tell Grandma & Grandpa I said "Hi" and that I love them and miss them.
Until then.......
Your daughter,
Mindy
I love you forever & always.

Daddy, I know you can't read this but I hope somehow you can feel it. I know i never let time go by without letting you know how much i loved you and how very proud i was of you. You were my best friend which you knew. I hope your with your real family getting all the real answers that you never got here on the real earth. I promise to you I will take care of mommy no matter to what extent i have to go to. You took mommy and me out of a bad situation and for that i will always be greatful.

Sandy,
The memory I have of you and Gene, even after many years together, is how evident it was that you were still very much in love. I am sorry for your loss and pray that you and your family find the strength from his love to get through this tragic time.

Sandy....This comes from the heart of our family and I know what Mom & Dad would want to say. We know how Gene took such good care of you & Kim in those very early years..and then added to our small family with the addition of Mindy. He truly kept his word of taking care of his family with love and devotion. He will be greatly missed and never forgotten. Love, Carolyn
