How do I put into a few lines the caring and love of a lifetime. Whenever I stumbled on the road of life you were always there to help me to get back on track.Wise advice always given,although sometimes not heeded,were still what made me who I am today.Though you are gone from us here on earth,you will be always with us in our hearts.Please know Dad that Mom will be ok and safe here at home.We will miss you everyday until the the Lords blessed promise is fulfilled and he comes again to take us home and we are reunited once again.I love you Dad and may God bless you and keep you.
