Hey Dad,
It is me just checking in to say, I love you and miss you. It has been four long years today since you have been gone. Life has been real tough for the last few years. I think about you all the time and feel like you have been gone forever. I truly still need your guidance. I received a few signs from you and that is what keeps me going.

Your baby girl, Ava, got accepted into Tulane! She is so happy and so smart. I am happy that she will be close to home. Tré has been my support system through all the chaos going on. You would be real proud of him too. Your Jules is all good and has life all figured out!

I am still so heartbroken over how you left this earth. It was just so terrible to not be able to talk to you or touch you during your last days with us. I still have a tough time on Christmas Day (the day you were put on a ventilator.) Somehow I must go on because I know this is what you would want me to do! Just know that you meant the world to me and so appreciative of all the wonderful things you did for my family and I. You are always in our hearts and never to be forgotten.

All my love,
Gina (Queen)

Dad,
It has been three years and I still miss you every single day. I ask myself every day, how will I get through it and I just do! Nothing seems the same without you in it. My kids and I miss you so much and always hope for a sign from you. Please keep guiding us and help us get through these tough days. You hold a special place in our hearts that will never go away. You have made so many great memories with us that we are forever grateful. Thank you for being the best dad and grandfather that anyone could ask for. I was blessed to have you for the 51 years I had you, I just wanted a little more time. Love you with all my heart.
All my love,
"Your Queen"
Gina, Eddie, Tré, Julia, & Ava

Dad,
It has been two years and it feels like forever. There has not been a day that has gone by that I have not thought about you and missed you. It was another tough year without you. You would be so proud of the kids. Tré graduated from LSU and Julia graduated from Loyola! Ava is doing so well at Mount Carmel. The only thing that was missing was you! We are doing the best we can. Just know that there was a piece of me that left when you left. I miss you so very much. I know things will never be the same and all we have is memories. Boy, do we have a ton of those! I love you and ask you to keep guiding me through.

All my love,
Gina "Queen"

Dad,
It was a year today that I completely lost you. You were put on a ventilator and could not talk to you. Here we are, Christmas Day without you. It has been a tough year and we are all missing you so much. I know you are in my heart but I miss you. Please stay with me and know that we all wish you were here with us. Merry Christmas Dad! I love you with all my heart! All my love, Queen

I was asked " Are you mad at God" and I answered, no because
I had the man that I truly loved with my heart and soul , and I had him for almost 55 years, so I look at my life as someone so lucky to have him that long !
Like they say.....It is better to have love and lost, than never to have love at all

Dad,
We are coming up on the anniversary of your Covid diagnosis. This has been a terrible year without you. There is not a day that goes by that my heart aches for you. I miss you so much. Christmas will not be the same without you. We will all get through this holiday, but it won´t be easy. Just know that you will forever be in my heart. All my love, Your Queen XOXO

Dad,
I am truly heartbroken. You were my rock, my hero and now my angel. I pray to you quite often to help guide me through. I am lost without you and just trying to find my way. Please know that you will forever be in my heart. I promised you not to worry about mom when you got sick, and I will keep my promise and take care of mom. Dad, I learned so much from you and I will be forever grateful. Thank you for my wonderful life. I appreciate everything you did for our family. You were a great dad, great boss, and the best grandfather that I could ever ask for. When you left me, I lost a piece of myself that can never be replaced. Dad, I know it was your time, but I am just selfish and want you here with me. Love you to the moon and back.
All my love,
Gina

George was the love of my life, we met when we were 16 years old, married when we were 19, and he passed at the age of 74.
We were always together, and I loved every minute of time with him.
I will love him forever, till we are together again Love Beverly

Beverly, Gina and Georgie, I am so saddened to here this news. I know we've somewhat lost touch after my retirement but I think of you guys often and always had a great time with our little BS sessions. You know he is in a better place and will be welcoming you all with open arms whenever your time has come. Farewell, my good friend.
