Hi, Daddy; well, I can't believe that today is your one year anniversary in Heaven already. You have definitely earned your wings, along with Mommy. I pray that you're happy together up there; and want you to know that you're still fondly remembered by everyone that I talk to down here. I'll be at your anniversary Mass today at noon. Don't know if Fr. Tim is celebrating there-or on the Big M, LOL!!!! :-) Give my love and HUGE hugs to the rest of the family, especially Mom and Uncle Vic.... Love and kisses always, Dede
