Papa, I love you forever. I miss you so much and you were an amazing father to me. You protected me, provided for me, and made sure I had everything I needed in life to grow and flourish into an awesome adult. Your lessons, values and morals have been instilled in me by your love and commitment to me. My time with you was priceless and forever cherished. You are with mama now and now she will take care of you. I know how much you longed to be with her again. I love both of you. Papa, thank you for your unconditional sacred love. Rest in love and peace.
