Hey Grandpa.
I have never left anything on this page, though I have breezed through it many times. Just wanted to say hello and let you know how much everyone still misses you even after all this time has passed. I am thankful for all the memories and nik naks you have left behind for us younger folk that didn’t get the privilege of having you around in our lives as long as others did. I never appreciated them as much as I do now that I am older. I recently got married! I find myself telling Elizabeth (my wife) about how much she would have loved you and I take every chance I can to show her any pictures or memories I can find of you. Luckily, Nanny has plenty of those for us to look back on. I wish I was able to have you in my life as I got older, because I have so many questions I would love to have asked you.
Well, I just wanted to share some recent news with you and ask you to keep watching over all of us.

Until next time.
Love, Little Eddie

Hi, daddy. It's been nine long years without you and it really doesn't get easier. We miss you and love you. I'm grateful for the wonderful memories. Love you. Kathy

Hi Daddy.
I can remember every detail about this day nine years ago. I can remember the words the doctor and nurses told us, the feeling of utter helplessness, and the feeling of overwhelming pain and sadness. Those feelings have not gone away. We love and miss you, Dad and always will.
Love, Millie

Happy Father's Day to the World's Greatest Dad!
Hi Daddy. Just wanted to say I love and miss you and that I thank you for being, well, you - the world's greatest Dad. The world would be a better place if every person had the wonderful memories you gave to us kids. I, for one, can never thank you enough. Wish you were here,
Love always,
Millie

Hi Pops -

Well it's been some time since I wrote to you. I had to keep a BIG secret and didn't want to let it out. Congratulations - you will be a GREAT GRANDPA - as you already know - Jim and Lauren are expecting and he or she will arrive on or about November 30th. Dad - please watch over them. This baby means the world to them and our family too. I can't believe I will be a Grandma. Mom is so excited - I can't wait to see her hold her great grandson or great granddaughter. As always, my biggest wish would be to have you here to share this with us. I miss you so much. I know Jimmy will be a good Dad - he had you in his life - and that definitely rubbed off. I'm now wishing away the months until the baby is here. I just can't wait - I'm am so happy and excited. I love you so much and miss you so much. Please watch over our family - now plus 1. With all my love, Judy

Happy Birthday Daddy and Aunt Judy. You are missed every minute of every day and it hasn't gotten easier yet. It never will. Mom made such pretty flower arrangements for you both. I am glad the weather cooperated and we were able to place them by you. You are loved very much and always in our thoughts.
Love, Millie

Happy Birthday in Heaven, Daddy & Aunt Judy. I miss you so much. Please watch over Ryan during his travels today and this week! You are never far from our thoughts and hearts. Love, Kathy

Happy New Year Dad! 2011 - Wow, where did 2010 go? Matter of fact, where did this week go! New Year's Eve was very quiet here. Sean was out, Al was asleep and Judy stole Mom. Can't blame her though since I had her the week before for Christmas and the snowstorm. We do try to keep her busy but the eyes never lie. She misses you so very much. We all do. I know you are in a better place and at peace and that someday we will all be doing puzzles together. Believing that makes each day bearable, but, for now, it is lonely here without you. I love and miss you, Dad.

Love, Millie

Hi Pops

Well another year has passed without you and it still doesn't get easier. I love you so much and miss you so much. Mom and I had a good New Years Eve - we hung out - puzzled and ate a lot of goodies. It was really fun having a sleep over. She is doing pretty good - lord knows we certainly keep her busy. I thank God every day that she is here with us. Eddie did well - now he just needs to get some peace of mind. Kathy is sad - it sounds like Bob was a really nice man -Fred and Kathy have settled in to retirement quite well - I am so happy for them. Diane had a houseful for the holidays - I am glad everyone got there safe and sound. Steve, well, Steve has been "missing in action" busy with school, work and other family stuff. I hope he starts to pay more attention to Mom. Millie, well what can I say about Millie. She is a little Angel who deserves to get a break with her illness. I don't know how she does it. You loved us well Dad and instilled in each of us a special something.

Please watch over "our families". I know it is a lot to ask - Lord knows we are a handful at times.

I love you and miss you always. Love Judy

Dear Daddy, I'm sorry I didn't write for Christmas.....I forget I have this set up! I missed you so very much but memories of every Christmas, snowman, ice skating rink, etc. stay with me throughout the years.

I will never forget.

Please welcome Bob to heaven. He was way too young to die. I am very sad.

Love and miss you, Kathy

Merry Christmas Daddy. Gosh I missed you here. It never gets easier. Mom is here with us. Looks like she will need a mini van to get all her stuff home. The weather service is predicting a blizzard for tomorrow. I hope they are wrong. Normally I'd like to see a white Christmas holiday week but we are all suppose to meet at Kathy's to celebrate Christmas and snow would make that very hard. Hopefully the storm will be delayed and everyone can enjoy the day. Eddie's knee surgery is Wednesday. Please keep a special watch over him. We all want him to be well. I love and miss you Dad.
Love, Millie

Hi Daddy. I am glad Mom and I were able to get to Calverton to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving because Judy's post reminded me that I didn't write. I don't know how I forgot. Guess my mind is all over the place. There are many things in the works for Mom. Dealing with this port issue is driving us all a bit bonkers. Please help us all make the right choice. As usual our Thanksgiving was lonely without you. I will never get over your not being here with us. I love and miss you, Dad.
Love, Millie

PS - Thanks for everything Daddy.

Hi Pops

Well the holidays are here again. So much has happend this past year. I'm hoping for a good 2011 for everyone. Mom is doing great - we are all taking care of her for you. Sorry I didn't send a Happy Thanksgiving - my mind was preoccupied with Jim and Lauren. Keep an eye on them for me. I will miss you at Christmas, as always. I love you so much and miss you sooooooo much. Watch over us - love you. Judy

Hi Dad. I can't believe eight years have gone by without you here by our sides. In my mind and heart it seems like only yesterday - the pain is just as strong. I will never understand how this happened. I miss you more each day. I thank God each day for the wonderful Daddy we all had but wish with all my heart you weren't taken away so soon.

I love you, Daddy.

Love, Millie

September 9, 2010

Hi, Daddy. It has been 8 years since you were taken from us. I miss you so much. So many things have gone on in our lives and the only comfort we have is knowing you were watching over us.

I love you and miss you.

Love, Kathy

Hi Pops

Saturday was a brutal reminder of just how much I miss you. Father's Day just doesn't feel the same anymore. All the wishes in the world won't change a thing and that really hurts. Millie, Mom and I had a nice day - we hopefully made Mom feel a little better. I know this week is a hard one for her, first Father's Day and then your anniversary. We all will do our best to keep her spirits up. I love you so much and I love Mom so much we just want her to be happy and make her days without you less painful. I love you Daddy. Judy

Happy Father's Day, Daddy. As always, I wish you were here sharing it with us. While riding in the car yesterday, the song "Daddy's Little Girl" came on the radio. It reminded me of how special you made all of us girls feel. Your love for us (boys included) was apparent in everything you did - from working two jobs to helping with school projects and, of course, the building of your ice rinks and your infamous snowmen. I believe the word "special" was created just for you. I love and miss you, Daddy. Happy Father's Day.
Love, Millie

Hi Daddy. I think of you always but especially today on Memorial Day. I can't imagine what it is like for any young man or woman to join the service during a war. Here's a big Thank You to you and all those who have served our country. I love you and miss you, Dad.
Love, Millie

Hi Daddy. Happy Easter (a day late). I missed having you here for dinner with Mom but you were always in our thoughts. As usual, Sean did all the cooking and it was fantastic. I hope Mom had a good time. We try so hard to keep her mind off of being without you. Too bad our efforts don't work. We love you, Dad.
Love, Millie

Happy Birthday Pops to you and AJ. Happy Easter too.

I miss you so much. I wish I could visit you more often but my life has become so hectic (poor excuse). I will get there real soon. I love you and wish I could give you a big hug and kiss. I will hopefully get to see Mom today and hug her real tight for you. Please watch over our family, as you always do. As you probably know, we recently lost Joanie. It was quite a shock. Sometimes I just don't understand why things happen as they do. I guess I will never know. I love you. Love Judy

Happy New Year, Daddy. Looks like it's going to be a snowy one here. Can't say I really like that. I know all the kids do, though. For that reason, I won't wish it away. I don't want to be the cause of kids not being able to have the memories of building snowmen, snow forts, and of course the ultimate snow ball fights. New Year's Eve was very quiet here. We are not party people. Mom was at Judy's this year. She had a lot of fun - something we all try hard to give her. I wish you were here to share all this with us. I love and miss you, Dad.

Merry Christmas Dad. You and Mom were the first thought that popped in my mind as I lit the Christmas tree and turned on your light in the manger. We miss you. Love, Diane

Millie Diaz

December 25, 2009

Merry Christmas Daddy. Every year I ask myself the same question, "How did you and Mom manage to put together such wonderful, beautiful Christmases for us kids?" It just amazes me. You always managed to find whatever impossible to find gift we wanted (and then continue for your grandchildren), find the perfect tree and then decorate it to where words can't even describe it. I'm closing my eyes right now and picturing one of your trees. That memory will stay with me always. Mom is here with us. I had to prod her to go to bed so I could continue with "Santa" duties. I hope being here makes the day easier for her. Saturday the gang will get together and we will try to keep Mom entertained enough so missing you will be a little easier for her. Your not being here is so hard. I can't even begin to imagine how Mom feels. I guess by now you know you are one very loved and missed husband and father. Wish those with you a Merry Christmas. They are all missed as well. I love you, Daddy.

Dear Daddy - Merry Christmas to you and your family up there in Heaven. You are all together but those of us remaining miss you so much. Every snowflake reminds me of you and our snowmen and how excited you would get when a storm is approaching. You are in our minds and hearts every single day.

Love you - Kathy

December 22, 2009

Hi Pops -

Merry Christmas to you and AJ in heaven. I sure do miss you. As you probably already know - we will all be getting together on Saturday. They are saying snow and or rain for Christmas - we got a heck of a storm this past weekend and all I could do was think of you. It has been one heck of a year for all of us. We need your watchful eye once again as we approach another new year. I miss you more and more. I love you. Love always, "Jude"

Hi Dad - well, we got us a nor'easter here. Last night I kept thinking about all the fun we used to have dissecting a snow storm. I miss having you here to talk about the snow but I thank you for all the wonderful snow memories you have given to all of us. I love you, Dad.

December 1, 2009

Hi Pops

Well another Thanksgiving has come and gone. All in all, everyone had a good day. I think we all made it through with our memories of you. Dianes' letter to you made me cry. When I think how close she came to leaving us it frightens me so. I am so proud of her and I know you would be too. She has come such a long way and she has your fortitude and won't let anything keep her down - she is a fighter and I love her for that. Mom is doing good. We are, as usual, keeping her busy. Freddie has come along way too. Thanks for watching out for our family. I love you and miss you so much. Hugs and Kisses, Judy

November 26, 2009

Dear Dad, Today I am thankful for so many things. I am thankful first for you and Mom, you shaped me into the person I am. Then I am thankful I could be here today. I really thought I was coming to see you but I guess it wasn't time. Thinking of you was the only thing that got me through the darkest time. I am thankful for Mark for getting me through all of the pain and suffering and for my children that brought the light back to my eyes. That brings me back to you and Mom for giving me the greatest sisters and brothers who thought of me all the time. Mom was so helpful to me, I was pretty frightened when I first got home. I am doing well, but I miss you so much. Happy Thanksgiving. Love, Wink

November 26, 2009

Dear Daddy, I miss you so much all the time but Thanksgiving has such special memories - which were brought back when someone sent me a recipe for White Castle stuffing! LOL

Well, the White Castles reminded me of all the fun things you did for us and with us.

It's not fair that you had to leave us way too soon. I miss you.

Love, Kathy

Happy Thanksgiving Dad.
I know it's a day early but I wanted to share with you now. Mom will be here tomorrow, as well as, Al's sister and family and a few of Sean's friends. It will be a busy day. For such a small house, we will manage to fit a bunch of people. With all my heart I wish one of those family members could be you. I miss you so much, Dad. You are in my thoughts and prayers always.

I love you. Love, Millie

September 16, 2009

Hi Pops

I have been thinking of you so much. Sorry I haven't written in a while. Lots of goings on, as you know, I am sure. Seven years - feels like yesterday - Every time I drive to work I think of that day and how frightened I was for you. I am so sorry I didn't make it on time to say goodbye that morning. I know I will cherish every moment I spent with you those last days. I love you and miss you. Judy

Millie Diaz

September 12, 2009

Hi Dad. I can't believe it has been seven years without you being here with us. When I was at Calverton with Mom on Wednesday, I kept getting flashbacks to that day. I remember holding your hand and kissing your cheek and telling you that everything would be alright. How we all prayed that would be true. Then afterwards when they let us see you, I couldn't believe a person could feel so much pain. That pain is with us all just as much today as the day God called you. I miss you and love you so much Dad.

Judy Watt

April 16, 2009

Hi Pops- Don't know what happened to my last note to you but here I go again.

Happy belated birthday and Happy Easter to you and A.J.

I miss you so much and I know Mom could use your shoulder to cry on these days. So much has happened and she is being so strong. She was with Diane for a while but I know she wishes she could do more for her. Please watch over Diane and Freddie - they need your watchful eye and love right now.

I hope this makes it into the book. Love you always. Judy

Millie Diaz

April 12, 2009

Hi Daddy. Happy Easter! As always, I wish you were here with us. I know a lot of prayers have been sent your way lately in hopes that you can intervene for us. I know God has answered some but your "Wink" really needs God's help. She needs some of your strength and courage, too. Don't get me wrong, she has a lot of both but a little extra never hurt. I love you, Dad and miss you, too.
Love, Millie

Dear Daddy,

I'm sorry I missed your birthday - but you know I was thinking of you and Aunt Judy. Not a day goes by when I don't think of you! We need some help down here!!!! Mom can't take much more worry, you know? Please keep a close eye and send some heavenly rays down this way.

Happy Easter - we miss you so much.

Love, Kathy

Happy Birthday Daddy and Aunt Judy!
You should have been with us all these years. You both were taken way too early. We all miss you and love you very much. I am just going to close my eyes and pretend we are back home having the best birthday party ever. I love you both.
Love, Millie

Hi, Daddy.

I can't believe another set of holidays passed and here we are without you. Sometimes it feels like you were just here and then I realize how many YEARS have gone by. It doesn't seem real.

I miss you. Every day I see something or someone who reminds me of you in some way. You will never be forgotten.

I love you.

Kathy

Hi Daddy. Happy New Year. Well, here we are. The start of another year and a year closer till we all meet again. We miss you every minute of every day in everything we do.

I hope this year will be a better year for everyone. I will continue to pray for good health and peace of mind for your gang. We are all trying to take as good care of Mom as you would have. I hope we are succeeding in keeping Mom healthy and as happy as she can be without you being here with her.

As you know, Al retired today. Boy how time flies. Wish you were still here to celebrate all the milestones in our lives. I love you, Dad.

Love,
Millie

Merry Christmas Daddy. I wanted to let you know how much I miss you here with us this day and always. I wish I could have gotten out to Calverton before today but the weather and my car didn't cooperate. However, I do believe you had a hand in keeping me home yesterday during the rain. Very tricky keeping my heater and defroster from working! I love you Dad. Thanks for always watching over us all.

Love, Kisses, and Hugs, Millie

Hi Pops

Sorry I haven't written for a while. Time just passes too quickly. Well Mom is doing okay. We had a really nice day with Millie yesterday. It makes me think seriously about one day retiring so I can have some fun.

I missed you at Thanksgiving. Mom had a really nice dinner - cooked by your grandson - you would have really enjoyed that meal. Jimmy had dinner with us - I cooked at home this year and it was fun. Lauren had to work so she slept most of the day and went over to her Moms for a quick meal. It was nice having Jimmy with us.

The first time I saw the snow I just kept thinking of you - Millie says 6 or 7 storms - she keeps your tradition alive and I love it.

I miss you so much Dad - it never seems to get easier. I surround myself with snowmen - figurines, towels, plates, knick-knacks - it makes me feel close to you somehow. I would love to just put my arms around you and give you a big kiss.

As you know, we lost our Chaps - hope he is curling up next to you. He was such a joy to Steve - my heart goes out to him. We will all miss him too.

Well, I better get working - I love you and will miss you always. Love Judy

Millie Diaz

December 7, 2008

Hi Dad. Happy belated Thanksgiving. We missed you here with us. Hey, I didn't have to cook (everyone is thankful for that) and Mom didn't have to either for a change. It is great having a son who loves to cook.
We are in the midst of our first accumulating snow fall, So, that should mean only seven snowstorms this year - or is it six because technically it started last night. Oh well, only time will tell if that myth is based on the day it started or the day it ended. I miss our snow talks. I love you, Dad and will always cherish the memories of all the things we did together and all the things you did for all us kids. Missing you always...
Love, Millie

Hi Daddy. Sorry I didn't get to write yesterday or get to visit at Calverton. I'm glad Mom and I got there for her birthday because the weather was awful here yesterday. I wanted to stay by Mom so she wouldn't be alone. We all miss you so much, Dad. It never gets easier to endure. I don't know how people say it gets better with time. Phooey on that theory. Before I left for Mom's yesterday, us girls decided to celebrate your memory by swapping jokes - some corny, some funny. Hope you liked them. Keep watching over us Daddy, especially Mom. We feel your presence. I love you and miss you, Dad

Love always, Millie

September 9, 2008

Hey Pops

Can't believe it has been 6 years - feels like yesterday. My trip to work today brought back so many memories of this day. You see, I travel the same way to work as I did to get to you at the hospital. I remember all the things that were going through my mind and upset with myself that I didn't get to see you one more time before surgery. I love you and miss you so much. Please watch over our family - we are slightly falling apart. Take care of Freddie and give Kathy the strength she needs to handle all this stress. Watch over little Jim - he is scared and needs definite answers - as for Mom - well I think we are doing a pretty good job of watching over her for you. As for the rest of us-smile down on us and give us all the strength we need to cope with everything else. Love you and miss you so much. Judy

Kathleen Mancuso

September 9, 2008

Dear Daddy, it's Kathy.

It's been 6 years now and it is still so fresh and raw in our minds. We really need you. Please have a talk with the Man upstairs and make sure our family stays safe and healthy.

We love and miss you. Love, Kathy

Hi Pops

Well - Still missing you - wish I could have gotten out by you - I think I am going to go down to Bay Park and sit by the water and just think of you. We had a nice time there together before you got really sick. Well - Ryan is married, Tracey is in love, Jimmy will be married in 11 days, Sean is healing from his surgery - all things I wish you were here to share with us. Give my love to AJ - I missed her birthday too. I love you so much and wish with all my heart that you could be here - it's times like this that your leaving hits really hard. I know you have a front row seat though and know you will be smiling down on Little Jim. Love Always Judy

Hi Daddy. Happy first day of summer and a belated Father's Day wish. I can't believe I forgot to write that day but I definitely didn't forget you. I don't need a special day to think about you. You are always in my thoughts. I hope your sunflowers didn't blow away. Al and I forgot to bring string. As you know, we are not as organized as Mom. I love and miss you, Daddy.

Love always,
Millie

Hi Dad.
What, no snow? I thought you'd get us good for April Fool's Day and request a snowstorm. I miss our teasing each other . I can't believe Easter has come and gone already and spring is here - still waiting for time to make these easier. I love and miss you, Daddy.

Judy Watt

March 17, 2008

Hi Pops

Well - another Easter is almost here. It sure came early this year. I will always miss you at Easter - I know how much you loved all the sweets it brought. Jimmy's wedding plans are coming along - you would be so proud of him - I wish you could be here to celebrate his wedding. I know you will be with us that day somehow. I love you so much and miss you so much.

Give my love to AJ - you guys will be celebrating another birthday in heaven. I wish you were here to celebrate with us. I hope to get out to be near you soon. Things are just a bit crazy right now. I will bring you some flowers as soon as I can. With all my love always, Judy

Millie Diaz

January 13, 2008

Hi Dad. Well, it's the new year. It would be a happy one if you were here with us. We're supposed to get our first snowfall of the new year. I miss calling you to discuss the so called upcoming storms. As usual, I don't believe a word the weathermen say. Wish we could joke about it together. Missing you lots, Daddy. Love you -

Hi Daddy. Another Christmas without you. It still doesn't seem real. I don't think it will ever get easier. We all had a great time at Eddie's house. His Christmas trees always remind me of the ones you chose. I am glad he keeps that tradition. It brings you closer to us. I can still see you trying to fit an eleven foot tree into our living room. Thanks for making all our Christmasses special, Dad. I love you and miss you. Merry Christmas!
Love, Millie

Hi Dad, you are in the news. My oatmeal cookie recipe has been published in your memory. We have over a foot of snow, wish you were here to measure it like old times. Love, Wink

Millie Diaz

December 2, 2007

Hi Daddy. Well, we had our first snowfall of the season. It is a postcard scene outside - every rooftop, piece of ground, and little branch is covered. It's not enough to build a snowman but enough to dream of yours. I love and miss you, Dad.
Love always, Millie

Millie Diaz

November 22, 2007

Hi Daddy. Happy Thanksgiving. It was a beautiful day today and Mom outdid herself with the cooking, as usual. The only thing missing to make it a perfect day was you. I love and miss you, Dad. You are in my thoughts and in my heart always.
Love always,

Happy Thanksgiving Daddy

Missing you comes so easy - I wish so much that you were still here. We are planning our dinner with Mom. Thanks for watching over her. You will always be with me in my heart and that is so comforting. I will be thinking of you - I know how much you loved Thanksgiving and all the goodies that came with it. Give my love to AJ too. Loving you always, Judy

Kathy Mancuso

September 9, 2007

Dear Daddy - it is hard to believe you were taken from us five years ago. It seems like yesterday - and yet it seems like an eternity. It is so unbearable at times. I am thankful you have left me with such wonderful brothers and sisters - and, of course, Mom - I don't know what we would do without her. Thank you for appearing in my dream last week. You were so very real to me that I didn't understand when I woke up.

I think of you and miss you every day of my life.

Love, Kathy

Millie Diaz

September 9, 2007

Hi Daddy. I can't believe it's been five years. I still feel as if I can call you to joke about something and then - bam, it hits me and the pain starts all over again. I love you and miss you and always will.
Love, Millie

Mildred Stock

1,825 days have gone by and the pain is still with me and always will be. I carry you in my heart every day. I'll love you forever.

Well - today was Mom's last Chemo treatment. She was a real trooper. All that is left is the PET/CT Scan and we are home free. I know you have been with her this whole time. I was thinking of you today and just wanted to say hi. I sure do miss you. Has it been five years - it still feels like yesterday - that ache in my heart just doesn't seem to go away. I am so grateful that I have Mom. I know you miss her as much as she misses you. I love you - Forever missing you - Judy

Sorry I am late in writing what I feel for Father's Day. To me, everyday is Father's Day. Thinking of you and longing for the days when we were all together are daily activities. I miss you and love you, Daddy.

Happy Father's Day in Heaven.

Love, Millie

Daddy - I miss you so much and Father's Day is the hardest. Thanks for sending the good weather for Ryan and Bernadette! Please guide my surgeon's hands (oh, and the anesthesiologist, too!).

I love you always. Kathy

Happy Father's Day Dad. I hope you know how much we all miss you and love you. I think I found some lost cousins of yours. There are plenty of people to keep you company, but no one here to ever replace you. With all my love, Diane

Hi Pops

Hope you liked the yellow carnations. I sure wish you were here for Father's Day so I could give you a big hug and kiss. Mom is doing okay. We are taking care of her for you and will always be there for her. We will be celebrating Ryan's engagement to Bernadette this weekend - I will miss you. Kathy's surgery is coming up and as you can see - we have had our share of mishaps/medical problems lately. Please watch over everyone - It is your fatherly duty as they say. Father's Day just doesn't feel the same anymore - I miss you so much. I love you Daddy.

Hi Pops

I tried all day April 3rd to write to you but my stupid computer wouldn't let me. I couldn't stop thinking of you all day. I miss you so much. Sorry I couldn't get to be near you, I am so glad Mom and Millie were there on your birthday. Please watch over Mom. She is having some problems right now with what we believe is from the chemo treatment. I need her so much and miss her terribly when she is not near by. She is being so strong, I am so proud of her. Tell AJ I said "happy belated birthday" - I miss her - she was really a dear friend to me - not just an Aunt. Once this crazy tax season is over I am going to high tail it out to you and stop by AJ too. Both visits are long overdue.

Well, I better go now. Loving you always and missing you forever, Judy

Happy Birthday Daddy. I wish I was talking to you in person. You are loved and missed very much by us all. I know people say time lessens the pain of lose, but, I'm still waiting. The pain just stays. I love you.

Dearest Daddy. Today is your 80th Birthday and I would say happy birthday, but it's not happy...you are not here to celebrate with us. Your love and legacy do live on, though. I know you are looking out for Mom. We need her so very much. I miss you and love you - this isn't how we planned to "do" your 80th birthday.

Love and birthday wishes to Aunt Judy, too.

Love, Kath

Hi Daddy. Happy St. Paddy's Day. Don't know if there was a bit of Irish on your side of the family (I'll have to check with our resident family genealogist) but, I guess everyone can claim some connection today. I miss you, Dad. We are all working to keep Mom's spirits up during these trying times. She is being a trooper but, as you are well aware, Mom is a fighter. She draws on her love for you and her wonderful memories to stay strong. Actually, we all do that. Thank you for the happy times you gave to each of us. I wish you were still here with us to make more memories. I love you, Daddy.
Love, Millie

Hi Pops

Another Christmas has passed without you. I miss you so much. With the beginning of each new year I only wish more and more that you were still here.

Need you to watch over Mom. I know she tells you everything in her journal. Keep an eye on her please. I am so nervous - I just want the surgery to be over.

Give my love to AJ. I'll write again soon. Love always, Judy

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas Daddy!
I can't believe another Christmas has come and gone. I miss you, Dad. If it weren't for all the wonderful memories of past Christmases that you created for all of us, it would be very hard to get through the day. Thank you Daddy for loving us and caring for us the way you did.

Love, Millie

Hi, Daddy - I'm sorry I missed writing to you on Thanksgiving, but I was thinking of you! Mom looked so cute!

I heard you trying to send a message at Ashley's party! We missed you so much this weekend. The holidays are difficult. I love you - love, Kathy

Millie Diaz

November 23, 2006

Hi Daddy. Happy Thanksgiving. As usual, we gathered together with Mom to celebrate the holiday. Your presence is always felt, but oh how we wish you were there in person with us all. You are missed so much everyday. I love you, Daddy.

Love, Millie

Hi Pops-

As you probably know, our Dinah came to join you. You never got to meet her here on earth so I hope you two enjoy being together in heaven. She is the sweetest rabbit and largest rabbit you probably will ever meet. My heart is so full of sadness at this time and her passing just put it over the edge. If it is at all possible, please smile down on Tracey and let her know that Dinah is happy now and you will love her for Tracey - she is so sad. Thanks. Love Always Judy

Hi, Daddy. Four years is a long time to be without someone so important to your life. I still don't think it was fair that you were taken from us so soon. But, the main thing we learned is that life isn't fair. I miss you more each passing year. I love and miss you. Kathy

Hi Pops

Well - I finally made it. It felt so good to be near you. I can't describe the feeling I have knowing I will never hear your voice or see that smiling face when I walk in the door. Time hasn't made it any easier. I miss you so much and will always wish I could turn back the clock and rethink some of the decisions made. Please know that you are forever loved and always missed.

Hi Daddy. People say that time makes the pain of losing someone you love easier. I don't see how that is possible. It's been four years and I hurt as much today as I did the day you were taken from us. I miss your smile, your quirky laugh, the way you teased us, you sitting on the couch, your knack of finding four leaf clovers, you razzing my baseball team, us discussing pending storms... I could go on forever. I guess it's easier to say I miss you, Dad. I think of you all the time. During the day and when I can't sleep at night, I talk to you. You were always a good listener. I love you, Daddy.

Love, Millie

Dear Daddy,

Happy Fathers' Day. I wish you were here to celebrate it with us. I miss you a lot, Dad, and always will. It was such a beautiful day out today. We should have all been out fishing. Mom is having a good time up by Steve. It is great that she can get away and spend personal time with her "baby". I know she wanted to spend some of Fathers' Day at Calverton today to feel nearer to you. I'll make sure she gets there as soon as she gets home. Her heart is with you always as is all of ours. I love you, Daddy.

Love, Millie

Happy Father's Day Pops.

Another Father's Day without you here. You are always in my heart. I miss you so much and will always wish things were different. Mom is at Steve's and I am busy planning Tracey's Graduation party. Can you believe it - she is graduating high school. You would be so proud of her. She really worked hard. My kids are growing up. Jimmy will be getting married and Tracey is off to college. Sometimes I wish I could turn back the clock. I know you will be smiling down on them always. Mommy is doing pretty good. She misses you terribly - that is one thing that will never change. We are taking good care of her for you - at least I think we are.....we are all always there for her and really never leave her alone for too long a period of time, the benefits of having six kids, someone is always in, out, needing something, wanting her to visit or as of lately, dragging her around looking for places to have the party and picking up decorations.

Didn't Tracey look beautiful at her prom. She had a great time, despite the weather. Do me a favor - see if you can arrange for a Sunny day for Graduation - 6/23.

Well I better get back to work. I love you dearly and will always miss you. Happy Father's Day. Love Judy

It's Memorial Day, Daddy - and I want to thank you for all that you did to keep this Country free. Things are certainly taking a downward trend now, though. I miss you terribly and wish you were still here with us. Until we meet again......love always, Kathy

Happy Birthday Pops

I am so sad that I can't be near you today. I wish they never invented tax returns and I was rich and never had to work. I miss you so much. I just can't get use to the idea that you are not hear to celebrate your birthday. Mom and Millie are suppose to come out today. I hope the weather holds up. Mom will be going to Florida with Kathy and Freddie tomorrow. I am so happy for her. As you probably know, she hurt her ankle but thank the lord it is much better now so she can enjoy her trip. We had fun yesterday at the Intergenerational Dinner. I like seeing Mom smile.

Please keep an eye on Dinah. She has some problems including Arthritis. You would get such a kick out of her. I will be picking her up from the Vet today. Tracey was so upset.

I love you so much and as soon as I can - I will get out to be near you. Love you forever. Judy

Hi Dad. We are gearing up for our Noreaster'. I know how much you loved them but, um, it is deep enough now. If you could ask for a little less snowflakes, we would greatly appreciate it. I'm sure, however, the kids in the family would disagree. I miss you, Daddy. I see your excited eyes in every snow flake anticipating the snowman you will build and ice skating pond you will create. Where did you find the energy to do that after shovelling all that snow? Oh how I wish we could all go back in time but, since we can't, at least we have such wonderful memories of our time together. I love you Daddy, Millie.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, DADDY! I love you and wish you were here. As you know, Mom spent New Year's Eve here with us. Our idea of partying was putting together a puzzle, but that's ok. We did it together. Well, we tried anyway. Mom and I both got too sleepy to finish it.

Time is flying by but it only seems like yesterday that you were here with us. I guess the reality of it all refuses to sink in my brain. I love you and miss you, Daddy.

Love, Millie

Hi Pops.

Well I guess you know by now - Little Jim and Lauren are engaged. I wish you were here to share in our joy. I've been missing you terribly. It doesn't seem to get easier for me and I don't know what to do about it. I worry about Mom and wish I could do more to make her happy. I put the lights up for her - all I could remember was how it brought a smile to your face the first time I decorated the house. It was so nice of you to struggle down those stairs so you could see the front of the house. I was thinking of you with each set I put on the bushes (and I kind of put a lot this year). Mom likes them too. Tracey gave me a beautiful Crystal snowman - my little reminder of you - to hang on my tree each year. She is so cute - she knows how much I love snowman and the memories they bring to me. We all were together for Christmas - except Steve - I wish he could have been there - I love you so much. I hope you liked your tree. I'll try to get out to be near you as soon as I can. Oh - one more thing - Please help Jimmy with his studying - give him some confidence - He is trying out for a job with the LIRR and it would be so wonderful for him if he could succeed. Thanks. Merry Christmas in Heaven Dad. Loving you always, Judy.

Dear Daddy. Merry Christmas a bit late. I can't believe I forgot about this web site. Guess I am getting old. As you know, Mom was here by me. There was one big gap in the holiday and that was not having you here to share it with us. The only time I saw Mom actually laugh was when Al took my turkey out of the oven. The poor thing. Didn't Judy do a beautiful job on your Christmas tree and decorating the house? I miss you, Dad. The only thing that kept me cheery this holiday was thinking about past Christmasses. You and Mom worked so hard together to make everything perfect for us kids. Thank you for the beautiful memories. Merry Christmas, Daddy. Love, Millie

Hi Daddy. I first want to say "Thank You" to you and all veterans for protecting our country. No man or woman who gave their time and, in many cases, their lives will ever be forgotten. I miss you, Dad. I am sorry that my entry for your anniversary in heaven and halloween did not appear. I guess I am not as computer savvy as I think I am. As you well know, Mom and I had an interesting cemetery visit a couple of weeks ago. We knew you were with us. I think we all sense your presence among us from time to time and know that you are watching and guiding us. Death can never separate those who love one another. You are in our hearts and thoughts all the time, Dad. Please send my love to all my family and friends who are there with you. They are all missed. I love and miss you most of all, Dad. Love, Millie
