My dear, loving Daddy, we miss you so much. Everyday has been a struggle without you here, but knowing that you are no longer in pain & have started your new journey with Moma & the Lord makes it so much easier & brings us so much peace. We know that you & Moma are catching up on lost time & dancing in Heaven. The many joyful memories you have given us, the lessons you have taught us, the way you have always loved us will comfort our hearts for the rest of our lives until we meet again. It will always be so hard, living without you & without Moma, but we know you both will be watching over us & loving us as much as we love the both of you. I Love You Daddy-Always your Baby Girl, Queen Elizabeth! Love, Kim, Jay, & Addison ❤
