Hey Dad,

It's been 16 years since you passed. Bet it's good to have your fur baby, Elliott, with you again and you have recently able to welcome your nephew, Nathaniel, home. The rest of us are doing well and we miss you lots.

Love you, Joy

I miss you very much, but am happy you are no longer in pain. I'll see you when I'm called home. I love you.

Your daughter, Joy

P.S. Elliott is doing fine.

Dad,

I praise God that you accepted Jesus prior to your death. I look forward to seeing you again. That will happen when God calls me home or Christ returns to call his children home. I love you!

Your daughter,

Judy
