HEY DAD,
I'M GOING TO MISS YOU SO MUCH. I HOPE THAT THE HUMMING BIRD THAT MOM AND I SAW ON SUNDAY WAS YOU. I KNOW THAT YOU ENJOYED THEM SO. I KNOW THAT YOU ARE NO LONGER IN PAIN OR SUFFERING. IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE OUR FUTURE WITHOUT YOU. I WILL ALWAYS HAVE YOU IN MY HEART. I HOPE YOU LIKED THE SERVICE THAT WE HAD FOR YOU, I THOUGHT IT WAS PERFECT. YESTERDAY WAS THE HARDEST THING THAT I THINK I HAVE EVER HAD TO DO. BUT I KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOW SET FREE OF PAIN. I WILL DO MY BEST TO HELP MOM THRU THIS. SHE IS A STRONG WOMAN. YOU CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE WHEN YOU PICKED HER. WE WILL ALL MISS YOU VERY MUCH. I LOVE YOU

TAMMY
