Thank you all for your sympathy and compassion. Daddy is at peace. Walk in worship Daddy. Sing your bluegrass with the angels now. Heaven surely is a musical place. God's Army has a few fine voices already, yours among them will only help make a more beautiful chorus.
I always loved you, and I always will.
Prayers for peace and understanding for those of us left here. We will see you again one day. Until then, we will wait. All my love ... your Daughter
