Well we had to have another holiday without you, I moved from your house into the house with your Mom. Sorry to see the house go. It was always home but, as we are getting older we have to do what is necessary. You would be so proud of your Mom as she cooked for Thanksgiving for us and in all our hearts you were there. We have to see Bo before the snow falls. I am sure he is being taken care of and loved. Miss you as always and in my thoughts. Love Aunt Connie

Hey Paul! Can't believe it's been 5 years. I think of you often when I'm at my parent's house. So many good memories on Hampshire Dr. Remember playing cards with your parents, making gimp bracelets, bike riding to Jefferson pool or the uni-mart, or our favorite kickball games in the circle when the old guy would call the cops on us for playing in there. We can't go back but we have so many great memories. 5 years ago.... Heaven got another angel. Until we meet again.......

I'm sitting here all by myself just trying to think of something else,anything just to keep me from thinking of you, but you know its not working out 'cause you're all that's on my mind-one thought of you is all it takes to leave the rest of the world behind! Love & miss you so much, if only we could turn back time to when you ,Johnny & your Dad & I were together as a family! Love Forever Mom

Did you see my little boy
I waited all day long
To celebrate his Birthday
But he never did come home

I guess he's not so little
He's really 32
We had a party & a cake
But he never did come home

I know he's old enough
to be out on his own
We lit a candle for him
But he never did come home

I'm waiting for my baby,
my little boy, my grown-up son,
Four birthdays in Heaven
But he never did come home!

Tears from your Mother-Love you forever!

So Paul today I was doing homework with my son. I looked over as he was coloring and he had his tongue hanging out. It made me laugh and think of all of the times we would do school work together. I'd look over at you and you always had your tongue hanging out when you were concentrating. It's the little things that remind me of my childhood friend.
