Dear Mom and Dad-
Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for giving me LIFE!! I'm always sad this time of year as I remember Thanksgiving dinner was the last meal that Mom ever got to eat. I've never been able to make the cranberry salad the way you used to. I love you and miss you.

Merry Chrismas Mom and Dad!
This year has been filled with much sorrow and pain. I miss you more this year than I ever have. Karolyn had her friend make up a picture video of our family and gave it to Kay and I for Christmas. It has pictures of when you got married, when you were very small children and of us girls and the grandkids. It was beautifully done. I cried during the entire thing. The only thing that keeps me going sometimes is to know that you two are together in heaven. This year we almost lost 3 family members and I am grateful to the Lord that we are all still together. Hopefully 2008 will bring better things for our family. I love you both and miss you dearly.

Happy Birthday dad, a few days late but I sure didn't forget you. Kay and I went to see you and mom at the cemetary yesterday. It was very peaceful. I miss you and mom and think of you everyday. You were the greatest parents and I hope one day we will all be together. Please watch over Whitney for me. I love her and don't want to lose her. Keep those dimes coming dad...hahaha

Dear Dad and Mom
Thank you so much for being the parents that you were. There isn't a day that goes by when I don't think of both of you. To lose your parents is the hardest thing on this earth to deal with. Thank you so much for the things you taught me. Please watch over our family. I love you.

Dad,
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I still find dimes everywhere I go and I think your doing that to me. I just have to laugh. I hope that you and mom are having a wonderful reunion. One day we will all be together. I just want to thank you for the wonderful upbringing you gave to me. I'm a better person because of you. You taught me to be a hard worker and that's what I've done. I love you....

Dear Mom and Dad-
One of my best friends, Tom Keskey passed away on my birthday, Easter Sunday. He was such a good friend to me. Please take him under your wings along with his mother, Helen. I hope you met her when she passed on. I just hate the month of April. Too many death of family and friends. I love you and miss you. Tom will surely entertain you in heaven, but I hope he doesn't tell too many stories of some of the crazy things we all did together, way back when.
Love always,
Your baby girl, Connie

Dear Mom and Dad-
Christmas was just not the same without you two. We all cried the entire weekend and watched some videos of our family. I'm glad that Dad is out of his misery and with you, Mom. You sure have some special grandkids and great grandkids. We all had a fun time at the annual Christmas Eve party. They are sure growing up fast and you would be so proud of them. Mike and I put a nice wreath on your graves from us girls and we hope you are enjoying it. Mom loved Christmas so much and it will never be the same without the two of you. I love and miss you both.

Dear Dad,
Here it is Christmas time and it's pretty cold here. I'm having a hard time this Christmas not having you around. I know that your up with mom and I'm sure you are having the time of your life. It's the ones that are left behind that are saddened. I'm sure gonna miss the cherry chocolates this year. It was a tradition of yours for over 54 years. I really miss you dad. Give mom a kiss and hug from me and tell her I love her. Until we meet again. You were the greatest

Dear Dad-
It has been 4 weeks since you passed away. I miss you dearly and cry over you every day. It has been a difficult time for us girls, but we know you are in a better place. I'm going to miss the little box of chocolates that you gave us every year at Christmas. You never forgot about those and every year we would pretend we didn't know what was in that box. I hope you are enjoying your reunion with Mom and your family. I love and miss you deeply, Daddy.

Dear Dad,
Words cannot express the sadness I feel inside. Even though this is a guest book, I still wanted to say something. You were the best dad anyone could ever have. I was brought up in a wonderful home. You taught me the values of hard work and integrity. I will miss you every day and I'm going to miss the phone calls to you. I love you dad.....

Dear Dad-
I miss you so much, but I know you are out of your physical pain and are now back with Mom whom you have missed so dearly for 20 years. Your funeral was beautiful yesterday and we were so proud that we could have the military honors done for you. You will always be in my heart. I couldn't have asked for a better father. I'm really having a tough time getting through all of this right now but I've had the strength of my family, friends and Mike go get me through this difficult time. You made me proud to be your daughter and I know you were proud of me. I promise you that we will take care of Marge and stay close to her family. I will love you forever, sweet Daddy. You can now rest in peace.....

Dear Kelson Girls,
I'm sorry to hear of your fathers death in the Trib. We moved to Wisconsin after I retired from the FAA. I'm not sure if you girls remember me. 3 years ago we moved to Hurricane and I had no idea that your Dad was down there or I would have looked him up. Your father was indeed a great man and I'm sure you were all very proud of him. My heart goes out to you and your family.
