A year has passed since you left us. We think of you often and miss you, but know that you are finally at peace.

Dad, we miss you dearly. We think of you often. Everyday we experience the imprint you left on our lives. These experiences keep your memory warm and clear in our minds, hearts and souls. We know you are now with mom and in a happier place. As mom said, it’s not goodbye, it’s see you later. So, we’ll wait in joyful hope until we see you both again. Until then, may the love of God shine upon you.

With love, Jeff, Linda, and Veronica.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Uncle Pat was my ONLY uncle and my godfather. I know that he, Aunt Gloria and Winnie are now playing Auction up in heaven and that he's still going slam and bringing his partner down. :-)

We love you,
