hi daddy-
the weather is getting warmer now. you would be itching to get out into the sunshine! I really miss you. I had a really bad week this week. I was thinking about you and wondering if there was anything that could have been different for you in the past year. I wonder if I could have done something for you. I wonder if I did enough for you. My friend Marla passed away last week. Very young, 53. She is probably your new best friend. I know you both are rooting for the Twins! Hopefully that will help, they are not doing well this year. Marla used to ask me about you all the time, where you were and what you were cooking :-)

Miss you so much!

Hi Daddy-
It's getting pretty cold outside now. You would probably be heading south right about now. Laughing all the way, calling me every couple of hours to report the temperature :-) I listen to your music. It makes me feel better. Hope you're doing good, I hope it's nice...

Love you.

Hi Daddy-
I really miss you - every single day. I see your messages to me, the butterflies, cardinals and the pennies
:-) I know you are looking out for me, things are going really good. Thanks for that! I keep thinking about the last 6 months and wonder if there was something more I could have done for you, to make you more comfortable. I hear your words in my head all the time, and your laughter. I miss it very much. Enjoy your new peace daddy. Love you.

Dear Christie and family,
Your daddy is at peace, bless his heart bless his soul. God knows what love you put into caring for him; giving him a quality of life in his last months, never complaining while helping him to learn you would be there for him. You have been a lovely christian example for how to give love. "Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is." ~Maxim Gorky

Love & Prayers,
