Dear Dave,

Nothing has been the same since you left us. There is an emptiness in our hearts. We miss everything about you, your laugh, your teasing or torchering depending upon our mood, your energy, your zeal, your hugs, your truthfulness at all costs, and your love for family and others.

Dave I don't know how we do it, but we go on. I believe its the memories we hold dear that keep us going. Afterall I have memories from nine years old on of you. And Dave from when I was young I always wanted you to win the heart of my sister and you did. Then God gave you two beautiful children and I mean beautiful! I see them, I see you. I remember, I remember through them the awesomeness of YOU! Christopher with so much of your mannerisms and laugh. And Tara with the same sense of humor and sparkling eyes.

Dave, you will always live on in our hearts, homes, thoughts and conversations. I know you hear my prayers in heaven. I bet you are the most unique angel that there is. An angel on a Harley. Well Dave I miss you so and I often shed tears alone, but what keeps me going is my faith that someday we will meet again and embrace one another and the love will be greater than any love we could imagine. Until then pray for us. You are our angel and we are counting on you! Miss you so much!

Love your favorite

Sister in law,

Mae

Dear Margaret, Tara and Christopher,

I am so saddened to hear of your loss. Although I only met you briefly through Mae, the stories she told me and how she spoke of all of you, I know how close your family is and what a wonderful relationship you had. God bless you.
