I had Mommy over for dinner tonight and when I was setting the table I made sure I set a place for you . Jimmy went and picked her up for me and I was standing in the kitchen when she walked in the door . I couldn't help but see your cute face and Jeff hat walking in behind her in my mind. I miss you, Dad Life is not the same without you . I am now a member of a club I never wanted to join " Dead Dad's Club " Love you xoxo .

I was sitting with Kiera earlier today showing her your pictures and the video I made for you. It's with Nat King Cole " Unforgetable" the version with him and Natalie Cole. Every time Kiera see's a picture of you she yells "Pop Mc" We miss you I miss your smile , your laugh, you sitting in your favorite chair , going to lunch with you , bringing you over food , making you crack up , us teasing Mommy , you and Mommy being inseparable , celebrating St. Patrick's Day with you , going to the bar with you, talking to you about anything , taking you to the doctors and us cracking up , buying you Irish stuff... I just Miss my Dad . My world changed for the worse on February 17th please , please come to me in my dreams Love you Dad. #ForeverBrokenHearted xoxo

It has been eight days since my Dad has went to heaven. It is getting harder instead of easier. I miss him so much my heart hurts. My Dad was such a Beautiful person with the love of music in his heart and his big personality that everyone was drawn to when he walked into a room. I am so proud to be his daughter and always will be . He never missed anything important in our lives or our children's lives. He was a true family man . He was so proud to be Irish and he truly loved our Mom, Helen . They were married 63 years. They had a love and devotion for each other we all admired. I will love my Dad for forever and a day. I will keep his memory alive for the rest of my life.
