Happy Birthday Son,
Remembering the day you where born, taking your Mom to the hospital, waiting for your birth, watching you enter the world.
Watching; you grow, our 1st vacation with you, the Christmas we (family) got our 1st puppy (Scottie).
Watching you play in the yard, snow, and watching you ride in the wagon behind the garden tractor with Matt driving.
Your 1st days, school-baseball-football-basketball, and golf. You playing computer games and getting into music.
Your first auto- Ford Explorer
I am so proud of you and all miss all the joy you brought me.
Love

Happy Birthday Son,
Today is your 36th birthday and your 18 year in Heaven. I wish I could see, talk and hug you so much. Every day I live I always have thoughts of you and Matt. You both have my heart and make me so proud of you both. This was my first year not at the crash site, on your departure day to heaven. I did not have a good day this time.
I will contact Chris and see if he went.
He is truly a example of man who anyone would want as a friend.
I love you so much and ask that you watch over us here on earth.

Hello Son, I think of you all the time. Miss you alot. Another year has come and went. Today marks 17 years that I saw you last. The sorrow that you are not around is sad. I am doing pretty good. I am giving up the motorcycle riding and the motor home because it is getting to be hard to drive. Eye sight and overall condition not good for that. I will be at your grave site for your birthday. I love you more each day. Dad

Good evening Chadd,
Today marks 16 years that you have been with the Lord. I do not know what people actually do in heaven. People state there guesses and assumptions. I hope and pray that you Brian and Mo are having a great time.
Terry Tanner a man from Oklahoma who served with me in the Marine Corps passed on Dec 26th and funeral was on Jan 2, 2020. Look him up he has some stories about me.
Sorry I could not make the crash site today but we had a water line to burst and create a major mess.
I will drop by maybe tomorrow and let 3 balloons go. I have stopped by your grave site a few times to leave flowers and such.
Give Mom and Dad a hug for me and other departed family members.
I love you and the guys and would like to hear and see you one more time. Give Eric and hug and pat on back for me.
Dad

15 long years it has been since I last got to talk and hug you. I remember it just like it was happening now. A lot has happen to me in this past year but not one time have I not had you in my memories and Matt in my thoughts. I know Matt got married and I am sure you where happy to see it. I am very happy for him. I too also married as you know. I also returned to Vietnam for my 50th year anniversary and I know you where watching over me. Those damn mountains where a lot tougher at my age. Attended my 50th year high school reunion. OU Sooners had another good year but looking forward to that great year for them. Son your birthday is in just 8 days and Matt's is in 15 days. I wish with all I have that we could celebrate them together. I know one day we will. Love you Dad

Dear Chadd,
Been 14 years already? Man, Seems like just yesterday we were having Thanksgiving dinner together... So Hey bro can you believe it , I have 3 beautiful baby girl's an they are 4, 3, 1. They are absolutely amazing. I know you would love them. You would probably say they look an act just like me. LOL Getting a divorce tho, Guess he wasn't the one... If you were here you could "Scare him off for me" lol You would probably say he wasn't good enough for me anyway. ;) I miss you so much, every time I hear that song ... YOU SHOULD BE HERE. I think of you. Bout all the things I wish you were here to see or help with. , I am gonna have a drink tonight for you. ;) I'll make it a triple for you , Moe an Brian.

Today marks the 13th year that you departed earth to live in heaven with our GOD. I cannot tell you how much I feel the loss of your presence around me. I really was the most blessed man and father while I had you and Matt. No man could be more proud of his 2 boys. I will make the trip to the crash site and it really has changed and drop by the cemetery. I want to thank you, Brian, Mo and my fellow fallen brothers who served with me in Vietnam for all you guys and the Lord to help me live another year. Thank you

H A P P Y BIRTHDAY
I will be out at your resting place today. Miss you so much. You are 29 today. Wow.
Just discovered a friends son is up their with you. his name is Michael Woolly, his Dad went to school with me.
I pray that the guys that I have served with and died in Vietnam get to come by and tell you good stories about me. I did serve with some great men and will not let them be forgotten while I am here.
You and Matt already know that. Without God and them watching over me, I would not be here today. I hope this better plan for me is worth it to God.
I remember this morning well, your birth and then going and getting your brother and sisters and taking them to the hospital to see you and your beautiful mother. I know she is missing you painfully as well as your brother and sisters. Watch over them today, and if you can do something during the day to help them through it.
Love Dad

Good Evening Son,
I thought about coming back for today as I have done for the past 10 years. For some reason this year anniversary date has been extremely harder. I live in Fort Myers now and when 5:20 came I felt really weired. It is 1 hour ahead of Oklahoma time. I was thinking or really wondering what you were doing 1 hour before you die at 5:20pm CST.
I love and miss you each and every day. I miss Matt so much but I would really appreciate that you keep watching over him.
I will leave early tomorrow and plan to arrive in Oklahoma on Wednesday. Some people need me for a few days. I will go both to the crash site and to your place where you have been laid to rest. I will be their again on the 31st the day I had to bury you and on your birthday the 3rd of February.
I can still remember what you looked like, your voice, and your actions. I assure you that their is no other father who had a child, as proud of you as I am.
I look forward to the day that I get to be with you again. I have had to live 11 years without you in my life.
At 620pm tonight I will be looking to the heavens. Say hi to Mo an Brian for me. I would love to have some time with you guys. I would be happy to give my life so you could have enjoyed Earth more.
Love Dad

My lease is up in December and I have just rented a 2 bedroom apartment in Naples starting in December for a year. I am planning to go back to Oklahoma for your birthday and hopefully see Matt.

Good morning son,
Cannot seem to sleep today, thought of you all day yesterday, seems that the Beatle made a song with that name. It is going to be 10 years on Sunday. I love and miss you so much. As you know many things has happened to me in 2013. Not one time did I ever forget to think of you and Matt. I know in my heart you and the Lord keep a watchful eye on him and a hand on his shoulder.
Chadd I pray everyday that the Lord forgives me and let me have the privilege of being with you in heaven.
I, will be there on the 26th to release another balloon. I would love for this one to make it heaven for you to read. I know you, Brian & Mo are looking down with the Lord and watching us release them to let you know we never forget you. I put new flowers at the grave site, so I probably will not go there on the 26th, but I will be there on the morning of the 3rd of Feb for your birthday.
Mollie has a little child now, Chris and his wife and children are making it. I know they all miss you and the guys. Nicole is having a baby on Saturday. Misty had a baby boy in 2013. All of my friends send their blessing and love to you. Good night. Love you Dad

Good evening son, I just arrived back in town as you probably know. I laid the wreaths on yours, Mom and Dad's graves before I went to support Buck and Smitty with Jack McLean (LOON, A Marine Story) in his story to the Vietnam Memorial in Angel Fire, New Mexico. Jack was one of the Guest speaker and a Marine brother.
I thought of you and spoke often of you to my friends and my new friends that I met.
I know you keep watching over me, Kathy and Matt. I love you and miss you.

Chadd , Justgot home and waiting for your Dad. We're going to dinner tonight.
Just to let you know we have been in counseling and I think it is the Best. I mean for both of us. I learn more about you everytime we have a session. You are so missed, and I am proud of the young man that you were, for what you have shown your father. I know in my heart that you are his Angel watching out for him for me. Matt is going good, Love it when he comes over for Diner, Hope he gets to move closer to us.
Chadd we are going to be at the crash site I am not sure how I will handle it, but I am and will always be there for your father.
January 23, 2013
I didn't know you Chadd, but I can see how loved your were and still are by your dad. What a wonderful life you shared. What a beautiful tribute!

Good Morning Son,
We are coming up on that day I celebrate in memory of B, Mo and you. I love and miss you so much. I would love for you to be here with your brother and see what a beautiful and wonderful lady Kathy is. She has a boy that kinda reminds me of you. He will fit in with you and Matt. She would've have been talken to you and keepin you straight; as she is working on Matt for me.
I pray everyday that you are helping God and watching over us. Kathy is a lady that is so rare and I am looking forward to making her my wife.
This marks the 9th year, that our Lord has had you with him, I reflect back the year you was born. I remember taking your mother to hospital, you being born, and the first night I came up and saw you. I remember taking your brother and sisters out of school and taking them to the hospital the day you where born. I remember your first vacation (6 mos old). You where in the stroller, we went to San Antonio, Houston, New Oreleans, Mississippi to the Space Program Site, Penssocala, Fl, St Augustine and Daytona Beach (you where on so many beaches) Davey Crocket home in Tn, St Louis, Mo and to Orlando, Fl to both Sea World and Disney World. We where on the road traveling through so many state in that 3 week period.
You started attending OU football games that very year you were born and for the next 17 years you attended them and as well as away games and Bowl games. Our first bowl game together was 1999 Independance Bowl, we played Ole Miss. I looked for Bryan the first and only Fire Team Leader I had in Nam.
Rocky Calumus parents parked next to us at the Bowl game. We lost but we had fun, game started and it was warm, became cold during 2nd quarter, snowed at half time and then started warming up.
We fired fireworks after the game in the parking lot to celebrate the New Year 2000. We ate Hot Dogs and drank Champane because of the loss, our tradition. If we win a bowl game we eat Porterhouse Steaks and drank Beer.
Remember our last Bowl, the Sugar in New Oreleans, we lost to LSU but we had great time in the Bourbon street area. You giving all those Tiger fans all the crap you could spin. The swamp trip watching the Gators and wild pigs. New Oreleans cemetary.
I remember your first Christmas, the little rocking horse and Scotty, the little Scottie Pup we purchased for the Family. He was a terror with you. But as you grew and he, you and Matt loved that Dog and he loved you guys.
I remember your first Football practice and game, then onto Baseball and later you added Basketball. I know how much you loved Sports. I watched you progress into a great young man and when you took up golf at such a young age--I could not believe how good you where at it, natural.
I remember all the car shows with those low riders we went to. Our little fishing trips, white water rafting, and snow skiing. You and I had some times, as well as you got to share your times with your friends and some with brother.
As this day approaches I remember you so vividly and your smile. I remember how you made me the most honored and proud father that a man could be. Only one other person could do that and has always done it like you and that is Matt.
I wish Matt could get one more hug from you and you from him. I know you talk to him and he has been watching out for me exclusive since you joined God in Heaven.
I know God, thanks I am a rascal, but you their helping me, gives me a lot of peace.
Love Dad

Happy Thanksgiving Son,
I will not pretend to know what you guys are doing! I would love the opportunity to see you, talk with you and hug you so much. I love you. I have met a beautiful woman and she would have been a great Mom to you. Matt and her have pretty good start. She is helping him when he ask and she thinking of him. Her son is pretty cool also. I know you like him. I am going to see your grave site today. We all love you and miss you. Please watch over Matt, Bobby and Asliegh for us. Guide and protect them for us. Love you Dad
October 13, 2012
HiSweety its Saturday night and your Dada is out on the couch. Probably the Potatoe Soup. I so wish that I could he met you. I think Matt is really missing you too.
I will take care of Your father but help us with Matt , give him peace....
September 20, 2012
Dearest Chadd,
Well as you already know you have a Wonderful father. I don't think I have ever met anyone like him, and I am glad for that. He is such a passionate man for life, living each day, And I know that he so much loves the both of you. As I do because you are a part of him. I do wish I could have met you before you went home, but I will one day. Chadd watch over your father and I help us to always cherish the other, and love unconditionally... Love Kathy Sells

Good Morning Son, I love and miss you so much. Last night Kathy and I had dinner with Matt. We had a good time, I love you and the Lord for watching over him.
Kathy and I love living and sharing our life together. I love her so much. She would have made a great mother for you. She is always looking out to see what needs to be done tiresly.
I know we do not know what you do all the time, time for you is so much different probably. We think of all the things we need to obtain and do and I am sure it is not that way in heaven.
I do think of you so much. I am happy that this Book is here so I can write and talk to you whenever I want and need to.
Kipper is now learning that life has responsibilites and what rewards our children give to us. He and his wife have 2 beautiful little girls.
Since your travel to heaven, I have met many of my fellow men who served in our military. They have all helped me and reinforced my will that I have and had when I was a young man. I can truely say, I would do it all again, join the Marines and serve in Combat for my country.
You and Matt, are my strengths and if the Lord want's to judge me, then I give him you and Matt as my accomplishments.
Have spent some time since June seeing Bill Williams, he needs the Lords help to make him strong. He could always use another angel watching over him and comfort him anyway you can.
Can not wait to see you and hug you. Love DAD

Good morning son, I love and miss you so much. I am in a very happy state of my life. Probably as much as when you where born. Bike is packed to ride the East Coast for a couple of weeks. Will be spending time with some great guys (Combat Vets). Have Kathy and Janet watching out for me. Getting to live life as I want it to be, as I tried to show you and Matt. Enjoying each day here on earth as much as a person can, and only do positive things. Make life on earth fun for all.
I will need you to talk to God on mybehalf. Also watch over me, and let Brian and Mo help you, cause if anyone knows me, I need all the help I can get.
Hey watch over Irish, while I am away he needs it, maybe it would be good to whisper in his ear, What would Thunder think before he acts.
Please watch over Matt, Bud and his family, and Kathy and her son and grand-daughter, her Mom and Dad and all her extended family.
Also all the Combat Vet's family that remain behind while we are at Nationals. I know this is a big request but I know you and the Lord can handle it. I will never ask you for anything you guys could not handle.
Love you, Dad

Hi my son,
Today I want you to know how I appreciate you watching over me. I miss you very much and will be very happy when God permits us to meet again.
I think of you every day pretty much all day. Pray that you hear my words and the words that I do not speak aloud.
Stopped by the crash site and now today, I plan to attend the cementary and drop off flowers.
As you and the Lord can tell, I am doing much better. I have never stopped Loving him for taking you. I just wish I had been first. I know we have no guarantee's but losing you set me back on my attitude. I pray that my attitude prior to your loss of life was not the way the Lord felt he needed me to change.
The OU girls are playing in the Softball Championship and the boys made the cut also.
I love and miss you,
Dad

Good evening son,
I went to see Sara Evans concert last night. I like her songs and how she sings. She put on a good show, sang 3 Christmas songs and emphasize Christ and I really liked that.
What did Mo do to you. How did OSU beat OU so bad. Hey you need to be whispering in Bob's ear and give him some guidance. Get Brian to help you.
Also keep watching over Jan's mother and if you get to play Golf up there, take it easy on Jan's Dad. Let him win once and awhile.
Dad's anniversary is coming up, give him a hug and kiss for me. Your Grandfather is so very proud of you and Matt, as well as I am.
I had a very busy week, help with Pearl Harbor salute to the World War II vets. Attended all my VA meetings, and also attend Kenneth Coleman meeting. Helped the Toys for Tots. Work on my motorcycle and she is looking very beautiful.
I am doing my best to be a good example so the Lord will permit me to see and be with you in Heaven. I will be joining you as soon as he permits it. Love you so very much.... Dad

Hello Son,
Your Grandmother's anniversary is coming up in a couple of days. Give her a hug for me and let her know that I love her very much. Grandpa's will be close to Christmas and let him know I am thinking of him. I love and miss you soo much. What did you do sneeze or blink and let them Baylor Bears get ahead of our sooners. As long as I can I will make that game because you and I never missed a game at Baylor.
Let B and Mo know I think of them each and every day. I talk to them to keep you in line. I want the Lord and Jesus on my side when I get to heaven.
I am so proud of Matt, he is getting ready to put his house on the market. Watch over him, for me. Jan's mother is having a rough time and talk to the Lord and see if he can ease her pain. While he is at it, this world done here needs some help. I would be happy to join you guys in heaven and give you my suggestions. Love you Dad

Good morning son,
Last night I felt you where close with me. I had a great time with Jan. I think she is one of the most beautiful ladies I have ever met. I have met a few so that is saying something. I will be talking to Ron and Deb this weekend so let Brian know I will give them a hug for him. I hope you guys give each other hugs showing our love for each of you.
Matt and I will be attending the beard and moustache social get together tonight in Norman. We will toast you guys and express our love. Have a great day. Dad

May 30, 2011
Good Morning,
I do not know what you do in Heaven, but I love and miss you each and every day. I know that I am not the best person, because I wish God and Jesus would let you be here with me on earth. I guess I did not want to share you unless I could be there with you. I love you with my entire being and wish I could be with you. I am here with Matt and love him with every bit of my being also. I am very sad for me, but happy for you that you are in heaven and keep watching over me. I feel this, because the Motorcycle accident I had on 21 May should have taken my life and I only ended up with minor cuts and bruises. I know I am suppose to be here a little while longer. I love you so much. Dad

Chadd,
I only wish that I could have gotten to know you better for the time that you were here with us on this earth. When I first met your Dad he would talk about you nonstop! He showed me pictures of you back when you were a baby up until the last OU Game that you had gone too. I remember the first day I met you at Harry Bears. Your Dad and I as well as people from his training class were all hanging out having drinks and eating munchies. I was so impressed with how grown up you were and how smart you were. I remember looking at your Dad when he introduced you, his entire face just lit up with pride and joy when he introduced you to us. Your Dad is a wonderful and special person who has gone thru a rough time lately, but I know you are looking out for him everyday which does make me feel better. Please continue to look out for him, he misses you alot. God Bless you Chadd you are sorely missed by those who knew you and loved you!

Good Morning Son,
Today at 9.25 am, 1986 you where born. I have loved you so much. From the time, your mother told me, she was pregant. Once we found out it was a boy, I went to task to get a name that you would be proud of. Like Matt's I wanted an Scottish name. Once I saw you in the delivery room, no other name fit other than, Chadd Alan.
I have been up since 2.00 am working on taxes and looking at your pictures and even the crash site ones that I only have now.
I wish I could have taken your place, or even been there to assist you. I love you so much. Have a great day with God and I hope he hugs you for me and give your head a rub.

Working on tax return. Guess it time to file again.
I miss you a lot you would have grad from college and be completing your first year of work after college.
I know what ever you had decided you would have been a success. You always completed your desires. The Explorer you wanted. Working for summer, you did it even though you did not like your boss.
Everything you did, you did with desire to complete and begin something new and better.
I hope you are the first one that the lord lets me see. I need another hug and kiss from you.

The Sooner's Football team came close of winning a national championship, now both the girls and guys in basketball are doing great.
Chadd, Ron and Debbie are planning to attend the crash site memorial. I heard from Chris and think he will be there. I also believe Chris and Ashliegh will be having another baby.
Son, I love and miss you so much. I know when I get to heaven you will be their with me and that I would have completed a perfect life. Teresa has been the best thing in my life since you left. She, helps me balance my life everyday.

Good Morning
Wow, OU beat Texas Tech soundly, now Texas is crying. Agree they beat us, but they lost to Texas Tech. And we beat them over 40pts. Now if Texas want to do something it should be a game with us if we beat Oklahoma State. We would be willing to play them again on that neutral site, ha. Nothing neutral about playing in the state of Texas. But we are ready.
Teresa and I will be marring before year end I believe. Move to the new apartment on 6th.
You guys, watch over the sooners. Try and watch over the players and insure no one get hurts. The players will do the rest.
Love you
Dad

Good Morning Son,
Just a note to let you know Vickie passed away and I hope you could be one of the first to great her. I know her mother has passed just a few months earlier. But Vickie had been a very special friend. She admired your qualities and how much a great person you where here. I am sure all the people around me get sick of me, because I speak of you and Matt so much.
Each new funeral, wedding or birth that I attend and many of the school functions that I attend with friends children remind me of our times. I am so thankful that I almost got to spend each moment of your near 18 years with you. When I was not around your friends have spoken of how great you where.
I could ramble all day but, I am sure that the posting would be shorten or not posted at all. I can go back and read my words to you but miss your response back. I love and miss you so much, but I am sure soon I will get to be with you.
I am riding Elizabeth a lot these days. I will be putting a new paint job and talking about a new rear bob fender.
Love Dad

Hi Chadd. I'm sorry that it took me so long to write you. I never got the chance to meet you but I have met your brother Matt on several occasions and I've worked with your father since 2001. I definitely think about you when I'm around your dad. Not only are your dad & I co-workers but we're very good friends also. We'll eat together, drink together, laugh together, talk about girls together and now we've been riding our motorcycles together. Just a few months ago, I bought my first motorcycle and didn't even know how to ride. Thanks to your dad's teachings and support, I have been able to put 2,000 miles on my bike in the first four months. Just last week, we were waiting at a red light on the way to my house and your father told me how he was impressed with my riding abilities, that I was doing an outstanding job and that I was ready to take some girls for a ride. Depsite what he thinks about himself, he has a big heart and loves to help others. I'm sure you already knew that about him. Based on what I've heard about you and knowing what Matt and your father have accomplished in their lives, I'm sure you would have done great things and touched as many lives as they have. I know your father wants nothing more than to be reunited with you for eternity. I just learned yesterday that one of your admirers that your dad & I had the pleasure of working with has passed on. Please say "hi" to Vickie Weimar for me. I know you're both excited for OU football to start in just a couple of weeks. Boomer Sooner!

Good morning,
I have been thinking of you alot lately. Love to see you again. Feel you and hug you. Listen to your voice. I just miss you so much. Talk to Matt on Tuesday.
Would you, Mo and Brian watch over Bud. He took another little spill on his motorcycle Sunday. I think you guys where watching out because he did not get hurt. A little twist on ankle.
I hope everything is great, since no one knows what is like to be where you are at. Everything that is type, said or read is pure speculation from someone else statement.
I most want to see you and hang out, maybe oneday, it will be my dad and grandpa's along with you and Matt and your loved ones.
Talk later must go to work now.

Hi Son,
Just finished lunch and thought it is time to say Hi, I think of you so much. Matt call for the Red/White football spring scrimmage, but I was riding Elizabeth to the Gene Autry museum with a group of Bikers for another down biker who was killed in a single engine plane crash.
Ron wants me to come to the lake and fish for the weekend. I am thinking of repairing Elizabeth on Saturday, she has some type of leak in the rear tire. But later may go to the lake for Saturday nite.
Need to drink a glass of scotch and enjoy the moment. Think of you and watch the stars. Love Dad

I love and miss you very, much. I have started to move on, been 4 years. I remember you every day, and all day long. Remember the times we had and reflect on how I was the luckiest man alive to have you as my son. God granted me the most wonderful thing he could give, You.

Moving out of the apartment we shared so many wonderful moments and memories.
Everything ends I know, but I do hate loosing the things we shared so much. I will keep writing all the things we have done and shared to keep me sharp. When I get to see you again, I want to retell each story and boast all we can. I know God is watching over you, and I would hope he gives me the pleasure of being with you.
I love you, Mo and Brian so much. I love Matt with all my heart and as always so very proud of him. I was lucky to raise You, Matt and Lance some. The other woman who has shared some of my life gave me pleasure to enjoy their children as well.
I miss the guys that I lost in Vietnam and David Barnes, my best friend who died in 1980. Mom, Dad and the grandparents. Give them hugs for me, and I know that my Friends are watching over you.
Love Dad

Happy Birthday Son,
This may not post on Feb 3, but you and I know that I thought of you, all day.
Will reset your cross and Mo's tomorrow. Let go a couple of balloons today. Put new flowers at your grave site. After clearing and cleaning crash site will do same.
It would have been your 22nd birthday. Really felt good at the crash site on your 4th anviversary. I think you and I will be together again. I feel it more each day.
The New England Patroits could not pull the game out when needed. Their defense could not hold the New York Giants. It may not be that we will have another perfect season in my life time. Came close tho.
Mo's and Brian will be in a few days and Matt's on the 11th. I did call your mom and left a voice mail thanking her for having you. I am so blessed to have had you in my life. I was even more blessed when you and the court decided to permit you to live with me.
I will be moving at the end of the month into the RV. I think I will like it. Try it for awhile.
I love you so much, Dad
Lee McCarter, Jr.

Hi Son,
I have purchased some items to decorate the crash site for the coming spring. I know you and Mo are probably singing and dancing and having all kinds of fun. Brian probably playing his guitar. I know Matt, Thomas, and all the other guys missed you again with football season. You where the king in picking the winners. Basketball season has started and both OU guys and girls are doing OK, not great but OK.
Stoops, will look at the coach's, game plans, and the players and straighten the problem out, I am sure of this. I know you liked him alot and I do too.
Bud and I have started making plans for our bike trips for the spring, summer and autumn. I have called your mother to invite them to the 520pm get together at the crash site.
Just think on Feb 03, you would have turned 22 and probably been in your last year of your college. I believe you would have went on for your masters or law degree. Leslie it appears has been accepted to medical school and I believe she will be a sucess. She also informed me she is getting married in June.
Carla, has a little boy going on 2. Janet and Colleen maybe moving back to Ok. Many people have given me thier best wishes in care of you this past Christmas and New Year and January.
I hope you guys are having a great time. I know when I get there, I will show you how to have fun. I hope I will be there soon. I miss you soo much.
Love Dad

I can't believe its been 4 years already. A lot has changed but not the fact that we all miss you so much. I'm coming down this weekend and we're going to pay you a visit. I wish you could come to moms for dinner and to laugh and hang out like old times. I know that we all think of you all the time and miss you. I got my tattoo to have the opportunity to tell people what a good guy you are and to remind myself that life is short and we never know what God has planned for us. Jordan, Me, Mom and Kyndra miss you and love you more than you will ever know.

Merry Christmas Son,
It has been a ice palace here for aprox 1 week, and then 3 days of better weather then snow and ice on Sat. I know it is beautiful where you are at. Cannot wait to see you again. Matt misses you also. He has turned into another great football person. He is learning so rapidly it is unbelieveable. He watches and remembers stats. He watch a piece of history when New England went 15-0 last Sunday.
I am thinking of you, you know me. I miss rubbing the top of your head and saying I love you. I think God everyday and sometimes more each day for giving you and Matthew to me. I have and had the best 2 sons any man could have asked for.
I am thinkful the memories you gave me Chadd. I love and miss you so much.
Tell Mo and Brian, Hi for me. I am having dinner with Ron and Debbie tonight at their house for Christmas. Matt is smoking a Turkey and I will drop by and see him also.
Chadd, Alize' is growing like a weed and she call me this morning at 8:29am to thank me for our gift to her.
She talk for 10 minutes. She is so smart for a 4 yr is unbelievable.
I love you and watch over our Sooners for the Fiesta Bowl.
Love you Dad
