Your battle is now over, no more tears flowing down your cheek, no more pain, no more suffering , now you are no longer weak.
I still do not understand why this had to happen to you, but im proud to say you are my dad, the GREATEST man i ever knew.
Although you will not be here to walk me down the aisle,
when that day comes i know you will be by my side with a smile.
You were always there for me and never once made me cry, until the day you closed your eyes and had to say goodbye.
Now you are my angel, so spread your wings out wide, please wrap them around me whenever you see me cry.
Our time together was memorable and god took you way to fast,
but the most precious thing to me was you being there for my first breath and me being there for your last
I love you soooooo much daddy and miss you every second of the day until we can be together again ill keep all are memories tucked in my heart xoxoxoxo

Hello there Grandpa it's me your little buddy,
i couldnt find you yesterday
when i came to visit grandma.
She says you've only left the room
you haven't gone away
But i really miss you grandpa
and the games that we would play

He'll keep you safe from harm
If it gets to hard and you miss us to much just squeeze his hand
and he will keep you calm

And how very much you are loved xoxo
Love your little buddy Taylor
