I can't believe that it's been one year since this amazing man left us. I hope that he and mom are travelling through the heavens and kicking up their heels, and knowing that they are greatly loved and missed. Love you dad. xoxo

Deanna - You have been in my thoughts and prayers and my heart goes out to you with the passing on of your dad. It's hard to understand why loved ones are taken from us but find comfort in knowing you are a special part of such a well-lived life.

Dad, you were the one that taught me there was nothing I couldn't do. You showed me that the will is a powerful thing and to never give up on anything. It is because of you I believe no matter how difficult an obstacle might be, I can find a way. Your spirit lives on in all of us, especially Max. You were his mentor and his light in dark times. He was and always will be your biggest fan. Until we meet again. I love you. Deanna
