Dear Dad,
I miss you already. As we all gather around together, we can't help but share our most loving memories of you throughout our lives. You were an amazing man. As a father you made sure we had your support and encouragement. You worked so hard all your life to provide for us. One of my best memories of you is you singing to me. I loved sitting on your lap and listening to you. I always felt safe in your arms. I'll love you forever. Know also that you were a wonderful grandfather. You were there for so many events in their lives...little league, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts ( so many pine wood derbies!!!), soccer games, volley ball, dance recitals, school plays and crew meets!!! (And you enjoyed each and every one of them). You even made it to great-grandpa statis...Bridgette could always put a smile on your face.
Thank you dad for all you did and for the wonderful man you were. We love you and will carry you with us in our hearts and minds forever.
