Just wanted to say I love you Dad, I'm sorry you never wanted to meet your grandson. He gave you a beautiful great grandson and granddaughter. They would have all filled your world with smiles and love like they have mine. I have married my best friend after 40 years. Wish you could have seen how happy life was. I will truly miss you and am sorry I let the last 25 years go by the way they did. I just never understood what I did.
Love your daughter,
Christie
