Dad thinking of you and missing you more than you´ll ever know! Dad I wish there was a phone to heaven? I talked to you almost everyday and I miss our talks. You truly made a difference in my world you were the one man in my life that always loved me no matter what and taught me so many things about life! Thank you for always being there! And loving me so unconditionally I was the luckiest girl having you as my father here on earth. I was very blessed and will always remember the wonderful and giving ways you had for your family and friends. You were so simple but yet so generous to others. You were gruff at times but I always felt your love. You are so missed!
