11 years Daddy, the pain is still just as immense now as it was the day you died. You should see how grown up the kids have become...they're growing into such wonderful, beautiful people, inside and out. I hope you and Mommy are able to see all of us and I hope we're making you both proud. I love and miss you so very much every single day!!! Until we meet again, I'll hold you in my heart!!!
Your little girl,
Karen

Hi Daddy,
Tomorrow will be 10 long years since you left us. Not a day goes by that my heart doesn't hurt. It seems like an eternity ago yet it still feels as if it was yesterday. I think of you each and every day. I always get sad when I think of how much you're missing, not seeing the kids growing up. You would be getting such a kick out of them. And I also get sad when I think of how much they're missing out on by not having you in their lives as the grow up. Please continue to watch over and visit us, give us little signs that you're still near us. I love you and miss you so very, very much!!!
Always your little girl,
Karen

Well Daddy it's seven years today since you passed and it still doesn't seem real. You have Mommy with you now. The one year anniversary of her passing will be here in a few short weeks. My world was devastated the day you passed; now with Mommy being gone too, I am in utter despair. I thought you'd both always be here. The kids are growing big and strong and we talk about you both often; they include you both in our daily prayers and ask God each day to tell you both that they miss you both very much and love you both dearly.
Heartbroken still,
Karen

Well Daddy it's 6 years since you left and I still can't believe that you're really gone, I think most of the time I "pretend" you're away on retreat or something. But then of course I hit that brick wall and reality sets in. I miss you so much and not a day goes by that you are not in my thoughts! I love you with all my heart!

This may be the first time in 5 years since I have written on this site. Not a day has gone by that I don't wonder the what if's, the what could have been, the I wish he was here...the day you left, many lives were changed forever and despite the heartache over these past years, it has taught me so many things, how important certain things are and how not important other things are. I think that it literally took these 5 years to go through the process of steps and even though it is hard not to hear you singing or seeing you walk through the door, see you watch your grandchildren grow (everytime they do something it is so hard to think, how much of a kick you would get out of it), not be here for my accomplishments. It really is hard but in the end, I have learned not to sweat the small stuff. I don't ask the question of why anymore, I just realize that everything that happens, happens for a reason. I wish you were there to remind me of that, but I know that you do are reminding me of that in my everyday life. So much has happened over the last five years, so much change, so much growth, all things that hurt me bc you are not here in the flesh to be a part of. I know that you are watching me and what will be will be and I am so thankful that you are above me and all that I love to watch over us and make sure that we can handle all that comes our way...I love you, miss you everyday and wish I could laugh with you again, until then...I love you, and I will continue to lead the life I know you would want me to and I know that in the end, all will be okay. I love you! Love Amanda

9/8/07 - Five years ago you left us suddenly, not a day goes by that I don't blame myself for not coming to get you that day to make you go to the hospital!!! I still can't let go of the anger, anger for so many different reasons. I thought it would get easier with time but I guess it's going to take alot longer.
I miss and think of you every single day Daddy! You would get such a kick out of the kids. C is growing into such a beautiful young woman, inside and out and Lil D would definitely give you a run for your money.
I wish you were here!!!
Love you Daddy!!! :(

Two long, agonizing years today Daddy! It definitely hasn't gotten any easier! I still miss you terribly every single day! I still call your cell phone every now and again ... hoping that you'll answer. I know that's stupid because you're gone and I'm never going to hear your voice again but I try anyway. Me and the kids stopped by the cemetery the other day to see you. Claudia showed Donald your headstone and where you are but he still kept asking "Where's PopPop?" then the two of them were running around chasing the geese over near Harry, Uncle Jack and Uncle Harry. I was waiting for one of them to get bit or fall into a "hole". It was cute watching them...I hope you could see it...
Miss and Love you with all my Heart, Daddy!
Your little girl always,

Hey Daddy,
I can't believe it's coming up on 2 years in a few days...It still seems like just yesterday I spoke to you on the phone. I still expect you to call me on the phone or to see you when I go down the house. I wish you were here to see the kids and how grown up they are getting. I know you'd be enjoying them...I miss you terribly every single day. I love you with all my heart.

Happy Birthday Daddy,
I'm sorry it's been quite awhile since I've written. I guess I'm kind of still in denial. It still hurts so very much. It was a tough weekend. Claudia is becoming such a beautiful young lady and little Donald is just growing up so fast. Quite a few times this weekend while I was sitting playing with Donald and kept saying God I wish PopPop could see you guys and what great kids you are. I just know you'd be having so much fun with them, especially Donald. It really stinks that he won't have any memories of you. He'll have nothing but pictures and the stories we tell him. When you died, Claudia was the same age I was when my PopPop died and I have a few very happy, fond memories of him, so I'm really hoping that she'll be blessed with having a few with you.
I miss you so, so terribly much Daddy, it's still not real, don't suppose it ever will be for me.
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART. HAVE A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN HEAVEN.
Miss you much,
Your Little Girl,
Karen

Happy New Year Daddy!
Not so happy but ... Your head stone is finally on your grave. Uncle Paul made sure it was all perfect. I think he pushed himself a little too hard but you know him, he wanted it done and he wanted it perfect. It's beautiful. Claudia and I went to see it yesterday and wipe it down. Only bad thing about it, is the fact that now that there is a headstone there it makes it official. No way for me to pretend that you're not gone. Even though I go to the cemetery often, it never really seemed real because there was no headstone. Can't fool myself anymore, YOU'RE GONE. Nothing I do or say will ever change that and that is a very harsh and cruel reality and it stinks. Claudia often just comes out of nowhere and says I miss PopPop. It breaks my heart.
I love you Daddy and I miss you terribly every single day.
All my Love,
Your Little Girl,
Karen

Good Morning Daddy,
Well it’s 15 months today! Another Christmas is coming, our 2nd without you. It really stinks that you’re not here. It’s still not real, don’t suppose it ever will be for me. My heart aches every single day because you’re gone. I wish you were still here with us, things are just so different without you here. It’s unbearable, really. I miss you Daddy and wish you were still here with me. Watch over us. Keep reminding me that you’re right beside me.
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART!!!

Hi Daddy,
14 months tomorrow. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I miss you so terribly much. I keep getting these gut wrenching thoughts ... Oh My God, my Dad is gone, I'll never see him again. My heart just drops, it takes every bit of strength I have to not take off running.
I love you with all of my heart and I miss you so very, very much.
Love,

Hi Daddy,
13 months today. It still doesn't seem real. I was just riding up in the elevator at work and the brick wall hit me again ... I'm never going to see you again. Nothing is the same without you here. I'm just not into it anymore. I'm still just crawling out of bed every day and just "getting" through the day. Doing the bare necessities. Things just don't seem as important to me anymore. I'm trying really hard but it just doesn't seem to be working. Thank God for the kids, Donald, Mom and Amanda, they always manage to make me truly smile. They are the only things that still light my life. I'm still missing you terribly each and every single day.
I LOVE YOU DADDY!
Love,
Karen

Dear Vince,
You are greatly missed! It's been a year already and things will never be the same without you. I see it in Anna's, Karen,s, and Amanda's faces every time I see them. I wish there was just the right thing to say to make things better for them, but I haven't found it yet! But I hope they know I would do anything to ease thier pain. You were a great man, and I will never forget you.
miss you

Good Morning Daddy,
It's one YEAR today!!! It's still not real, don't suppose it ever will be for me. My life just isn't the same without you here. I keep picturing your face and hearing that silly little giggle of yours. It makes me happy for only a moment because then I realize that I'll never really hear it ever again. I'll be coming to have lunch with you soon. Just you and me. I took off from work today. I needed the day just for me, to come be with you, to just sit with you and talk. I was taking the kids to school today and was, of course, thinking of you as I always am, and I was sitting at a red light and I looked out my car window and isn't there a red punch buggy sitting there. I went to 8 a.m. Mass after I dropped the kids off and every so often I would feel hot flushed and then out of nowhere I would feel a very light, cool breeze come over me. It's silly little things like these, that I'm sure are coincidence, that reassure me that, even though I can't see you, you are still with me.
I LOVE YOU DADDY AND I MISS YOU SO VERY, VERY, VERY MUCH.
All My Love,
Your Little Girl,
Karen

In a couple of days, it'll be a year. I still can't come to grips with the fact that you're gone. Lately when I am sitting out on my porch at night I look up in the sky and there has been a star, just one single star, right above my house. I like to believe it's you looking over us. Although you know I'd much prefer you here with me. I heard our song on the radio last week. It's the first time I heard it since I heard it the day you died. It wasn't just conicidence either, I was specifically doing something and thinking of you and hoping you were proud of me and I flipped on that station and there it was. Like it was you telling me that you were there, you knew and that you were proud of me. I was taking Claudia down the other night for Mom to watch her for me and out of nowhere Claudia says "Mommy can you play PopPop's song (that's what we call it), I miss him and I feel like hearing it.
Dad, I miss you so much, the pain is still so unbearable.
I love you with all of my heart.
All My Love Always,

Hi Daddy,
Eleven months today. I still can't believe it. It still seems like it all just happened yesterday yet in one month it will already be a year. A year since I've seen you're face. A year since all the pain started.
I miss you so very, very much Daddy!
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART!
Please keep your hand on my shoulder and guide me.

Hi Daddy,
Ten long, agonizing months today! I still can't accept that you're gone. At least once a day, every day, I get this rock in my stomach when the thought that you're gone enters my mind and I start to cry. I was sitting out on my porch the other night just crying. It won't stop, the pain just keeps coming. I just keep thinking that I should've made them wait, at least one more day to see if you would wake up. I could see the tube bothering you but the nurse told me that was an automatic response. And I swear that when I was holding your hand that night in the hospital that you were holding my hand back. I keep trying to tell myself that you weren't in there and that your body was just on automatic but there will always be a part of me that thinks we should've waited just one more day to see if you would wake up. I know the doctors all said that your body was shutting down and that there was a severe amount of brain damage and that there was no brain activity but I just can't accept that, especially when you were reacting to the tube in your mouth and YOU WERE HOLDING MY HAND!!!
I look at your picture or close my eyes and see your face and for that second I'm ok. Then reality has to set back in and I realize that that is all I'll ever have of you. I just want things to be the way they were, you're supposed to be here with us.
I LOVE YOU DADDY! I MISS YOU SO VERY TERRIBLY MUCH! I'll see you at the cemetery.
All my love,
Your little girl,
Karen

Happy Father's Day Daddy!
I almost didn't make it to the cemetery yesterday. Had some stuff happening but I'm sure you know what's been going on. All four of us came. When I told Claudia I was going to see you she asked if she could come (like she always does). As much as I wanted to be able to come alone and sit with you awhile, I couldn't say no to her. Her and Little Donald blew kisses up to Heaven for you, Uncle Jack, Harry, Uncle Bob and Uncle John, like they always do. Before we left she said I'm going to go say goodbye and Happy Father's Day to PopPop one more time before we leave. We were over with Uncle Jack and Harry, I asked her if she wanted me to walk back over with her and she said no I can find PopPop on my own. She did too. She misses you so much. We took Big Donald out for ice cream, sorry though it wasn't Breyers.
I love you Dad! Keep your hand on my shoulder and watch over the kids.
Miss you terribly.
Love,
Karen

Nine long months yesterday Dad. Like I've said all along, it's not getting easier at all; if anything it's getting more difficult every day to deal with the fact that you're gone. I just can't deal with it anymore. It's just all too much. I miss you so, so terribly much and can't get to the other side of this. Still just functioning everyday. I know I have to get to the other side because right now I feel as though I'm cheating Donald and the kids and that is not fair to them. It's just so hard ... I want my Daddy back.
I love you with all of my heart and hope that I can see you in my dreams.
All my Love,
Your Little Girl,

I just realized that I never signed your book. I came to the site to say 'Hi' and couldn't find an entry. Time is just flying by and each time we have a family function I sit back and think of you guys - ALL of you. Now that the boys are getting married I'm missing you even more...WHO IS GOING TO SAY GRACE AT THE WEDDINGS??? I really thought that this would be a tradition, you were there for Elizabeth....
I'll be back to say "hi" again real soon. Missing you,

EIGHT LONG MONTHS TODAY DAD! I really feel like I'm heading for a nervous breakdown. It's becoming more and more real every day that I'm never going to see you again. It is absolutely ripping my heart out. I don't know how to handle it. I am so utterly lost without you here, I don't know what to do with myself. I'm coming apart at the seams. We're all going out to dinner on Sunday, 5/11 to celebrate Mother's Day, Little D's 2nd Birthday and of course, the 40th wedding anniversary for you and Mom.
Love you and miss you with all of my heart, every single day!!!

Hey there Daddy,
It's me again. It's SEVEN LONG MONTHS AND ONE WEEK TODAY! It still seems like I just talked to you yesterday. Still feels like I'm going to hear your voice on the phone or see your face. I want so much for you to be here with me but I know that can't happen. I still have all this anger and I don't know what to do with it. I still just break down and cry whenever I seem to have a couple of moments to myself. You see, I really haven't been living since you died, I just simply exist. I know I put up a good front because no one seems to notice how sad I feel. I don't know what to do. I'm still waiting to see you in my dreams. Please come see me!
I LOVE YOU & MISS YOU TERRIBLY, EVERY SINGLE DAY!

March 26, 2008
Hi Dad,
It's me again. Well Easter came and went and it was totally awful without you here. I was driving in my car the other morning, just sitting and listening to the silence and some thoughts popped into my head. Never again will I get straw or incense from you around Easter. Never again will you chalk the year on the front of our houses at the beginning of the new year. The kids won't be getting their cards (for every single holiday) with dollars in them from you and Mom. The thought was that all of these "little" things died with you. I took them for granted, I took you for granted. I can't believe that it's been over 6 months since you left. It still feels like just yesterday I was sitting next to your hospital bed talking to you, telling you that you couldn't leave because you had to walk me down the aisle when I got married and that you still had to take little Donald on his first train ride, who was going to do that if you weren't here. Claudia asks me every few days if I'm sad because my Dad is up in Heaven and not here with us and I tell her that I am. She must be able to sense when I'm sad because no matter how I look on the outside she always seems to know when I feel down. I really hate that you're not here!!! I look at pictures of you with the kids and it just breaks my heart that they probably won't, at least not little Donald, have any real memories of you. I know Claudia will ... she had you longer and was blessed to have been able to have more days spent with PopPop.
I LOVE YOU DAD AND I STILL MISS YOU SO MUCH EVERY SINGLE DAY!
Love Always,
Karen

Daddy,
I'm thinking about you alot, all the time, I didn't think it was possible to do so more than I already do but I guess it is. Saturday was a very, very bad day for me, I just sat in the kitchen by myself and cried and cried. I don't know what to do. This isn't getting any easier ... it's getting harder. Every day is an absolute struggle. I pray every night that I'll see you in my dreams ... yet it doesn't happen. Why won't you come see me? Why can't I get even that little bit of peace? Please come visit me! I need to see you. I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH AND MISS YOU TERRIBLY.
Love you lotz,

Five long months today, DAD! I still can't deal with or accept it. Don't want to I guess. Your birthday is tomorrow, me and Claudia will be coming to see you. I keep picturing your face and thinking about you all the time. I keep seeing your face the day you were filling up the air mattress and Claudia jumped on it, the look on your face was priceless. Amanda and I couldn't stop laughing because we knew what would've happened if it had been one of us that had done that. But not your little Claudia, Ha! Ha!
It's just not right that your're not here with us!!!
I miss you terribly every single day. I pray to God every night that he'll let me have a dream about you so that I can see you again, if only in my dreams. But I can't even have that!!!
Love you so very much!!!

Just thinking about you alot today, if it's possible to think of you any more than I already do everyday. Still fighting the reality of all of this. I guess because your 61st birthday is this weekend. I still have the card with Fog Horn Leg Horn on it. I meant to give it to you last year and forgot. Now I'll have to take it to the cemetery to give it to you. I told Claudia that this weekend was your birthday and that I'd be going to see you and she asked if she could come too. She likes coming with me to see you. I know she misses you something awful, she's been asking me to play the "PopPop" song, you know the one you sent to me on the radio the day you died, as I drove by the hospital on my way home. The one that became our song for my wedding. She said she likes hearing it because it reminds her of you and that makes her happy.
I LOVE YOU DADDY! I miss you so, so terribly much and it's still so hard to get up every day and go on. Still only do it because of the kids and Big D.

Four long months today, Dad. It's still not getting any easier to accept that you're gone. I hate even writing those words. St. Joe's and the Holy Name Society are having a spaghetti dinner in your memory this weekend. I'm sure it will be nice but just another time we all have to put up a good front and pretend to be happy.
Love You So Very Much,
Your Little Girl, Karen

I LOVE YOU DADDY! I miss you so terribly much! You not being here is so hard to deal with! I didn't celebrate New Year's this year. Didn't want to leave 2007, it felt like I was losing you all over again. Every day I just sink deeper and deeper and fight every single day to pull myself out of bed and do what I have to do.
Please stay with Mommy and help carry her through this, she pretends to be strong in front of me and the kids but I know she is aching inside.
Your birthday is coming up and then your 40th wedding anniversary. I'm taking Mom out for dinner, I guess there was a reason Donald III was born on your anniversary. As hard as I tried to plan and make sure that he wasn't born on anyone's birthday or anything, I guess that's why God is in charge and I had him on May 11th, your wedding anniversary ... who would've known? At least this way, hopefully Little Donald's birthday and your anniversary being on the same day, maybe it'll be a happy day for Mommy even though it'll be a sad day!
Love you and Miss you with all of my heart!!!

Merry Christmas Daddy! I Love You So Very Much and miss you terribly. It's really not going to be a Merry Christmas without you here. Still the only reason I get up everyday is because of the kids. Nothing will ever be the same.
You're always in my heart and thoughts!
Love you lotz,

LOST WITHOUT YOU
December 6, 2007
It's going to be 3 months on Saturday. This is not getting any easier ... if anything it seems to be getting worse every day. Still crying whenever I'm alone. Don't want to let anyone know how bad I really feel inside. Thanksgiving was terrible without you here. Christmas is going to be just as bad. I'm trying to keep a "happy" outlook for the kids but it's going to be extremely difficult. I have absolutely no desire to celebrate Christmas now or anything else for that matter. Still can't accept this all. Keep thinking you're going to be calling me any minute. I get so sick to my stomach whenever a tiny bit of reality sets in and I have to push it out of my mind so that I don't go insane. Really can't cope with this.
I LOVE YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART AND MISS YOU SO TERRIBLY MUCH!!!

Thanksgiving is in two days. The holidays are going to be really awful. Whenever I've been alone over the last couple of days, I've done nothing but cry. It seems like the reality of it all keeps trying to come to a head but I can't let it. I still won't believe it. I keep running it through my head and then I shake it off and say no, he's not really dead, he can't be. It's too soon, he is only 60 years old.
I was going through my card box the other day and came across a birthday card for you that has Foghorn Leghorn on it. I was going to give it to you on your next birthday.
Still Missing You Each and Every Moment of Each and Every Single Day! Your Always and Forever in MY HEART!!!

Two months today and still not getting any easier. I keep looking at the picture on my desk of the four of us and I just want to freak out, start yelling and screaming that it's not right, not fair. You're supposed to be here with us!!! I can't stop picturing your face that night before and the day you died and thinking "if only I had done something, taken you to the hospital on Friday, you would STILL BE ALIVE!" If there weren't the few reasons for me to have to still be here, I probably wouldn't be. They are the only reason I get out of bed every day!
I carry you with me every day.
I LOVE & MISS YOU WITH ALL OF MY HEART!!!

It's not getting any easier. If anything, it's getting worse. Each time I think of you and picture your face, I get hit with the break wall reality that I will never see your face again except in pictures and in my memory - AND I'M SORRY BUT THAT IS JUST NOT ENOUGH!!! I HATE THIS!!! I just feel like I'm going to lose it at any minute.
Love & Miss you with all of my heart!!!

Hi Uncle Vincent, This was a very hard weekend to get through, but everything turned out beautifully.
I still can't believe that you are gone, I still don't want to face it. This weekend was when reality really hit. I wanted to thank you for everything that you have done for me. I never got the chance to tell you how much I appreciated you being in my life. Being there to renew my parents wedding vows when the priest was unable to be there, for doing blessing at my wedding, and coming to see Matthew when he was born. You never missed anything and you always had a smiling face that will never be forgotten. I will always miss you .

One Month Today. It is still not real, still a terrible nightmare that I can't escape. Still waiting for you to call me everyday like you always did and say "you talk, I listen". Miss you and love you with all of my heart.

Daddy,
I LOVE YOU SO, SO VERY MUCH and I am still waiting to wake up from this terrible nightmare because I can't believe, refuse to believe, that you aren't really here any more. You are my everything, I just don't know what I'm going to do without you, I have such an emptiness in me now and I don't know how to make it go away. How are my children, your grandchildren, ever going to know what a perfect PopPop you are? Seeing all the people that came out to see you helped me get through these last few days because it reinforced in me the wonderful man that I know you are. I thank all of them. Everyone tells me time heals all pains and in time the pain will lessen, and I guess it will but I can't let go of the pain and the anger that I feel that you're not with me anymore. I promise you Daddy I'm going to finish Palermo.
All My Love Always,
Your Little Girl,
Karen
