Daddy,
It's hard to believe in a few short weeks I will be spending my first Christmas without you....... I miss you and all the traditions we shared at Christmastime. You and mom made each year so very special and I will treasure those memories forever. Merry Christmas in heaven!!! Love you both so very much.........

Daddy,
Missing you so much every minute of everyday. So lost without hearing your voice each morning, missing all of our talks during the day and ending our nights with saying "I love you" I hope you know how very much I love you and I am so glad you are finally "home" again with mom!!! I love you both!!! See you in heaven!!!
Love you Pappy
