Daddy, I love you endlessly. I miss you unbelievably, and will until I see you again. I'm so grateful to have had a man like you for a father, I'm a stronger woman because of all you taught me. Rest in peace - we'll draw comfort in knowing you're in a better place now.

Even though you have started a new adventure, you will be missed here by many. You were a joy to work with at Research Medical and I still have the Air Force stripes you gave me the day you started calling me Sarge! I will miss you my friend.

Joe, though you will no longer physically be with us, your friendship and love will always be with all that knew you and enjoyed all the joys of having you as a friend. I will always remember the first time I met you and you asked if I was always so bubbly, I will forever send bubbles your way until the day we are all together again. You were and always be one of the best man a person could be. Your presence will be missed but, your spirit will always walk with all of us that you shared love and the joys of life with. Keep your powder dry and ready for the next cannon shoot. Your friend, Shirley.
