It's been five years now and I'm still waiting for it to get "easier".
when the new star wars episode came out i went to the movies to watch it because if you were alive i know you would have enjoyed it.
When I think back on my life I was so lucky to have you as my father. I miss you so much the way you were always proud of me for even the smallest accomplishments, the way you would laugh and play all the time, or how you were always happy to see me... you have taught me so many lessons. I wish you were here, you were my whole world daddy I'll never forget you. I will never forget what I promised you eaither.

I know you are keeping an eye on me. I know it sounds weird but I wish I could hear your voice one more time. Get one more hug.

Death brings with it pain that is unimaginable, but when the mother is the survivor it seems even more painful. May both mother and wife find comfort from God's word at Matt. 6:33. "Never, be anxious about the next day, for the next day will have its own anxieties. marion (
