Daddy! We were planning a family reunion for Father's Day. But the Good Lord had different plans for you. He said "I called you by name, I have come to take you home! I love you and you are mine" And he sent his angels to carry you home. And He will raise you up on Eagles Wings, bear you on the breath of dawn, and make you to shine like the sun, and hold you in the palm of his hand! Love you Daddy

I love you so much Grandpa, and I really miss you. I remember growing up in the house with you, and you always used to crack jokes with me even though I couldn't laugh till after mom translated for me. I am sad that you are gone from here, but I am happy that you are finally with Grandma. I know your spirit continues to live through all of us. I love you so much Grandpa. Kiss Grandma for me. Love, Angela
