Dad there are no words to express how much you are missed and loved. It has been such a tough year without you. I see you everywhere I look. I can't take your name off of my cell phone, I have your pictures everywhere I look and think of all of the memories we shared. I visit you and Mom and think of the many times we stood there together and the things you would say..... you are in my heart always and forever.... I love you, Pam

Dear Basil,it has almost been a year and we still miss you as much as when you left us.When we go out it seams like you are there.Luke has not been the same since you left him and Janice is struggling along but taking good care of the puppies.Basil,we know you are in a better place and not struggling no more.I am sure if you could come back you would not want to.You are with the one you always talked about.I read your Bible that you gave me and how you have added your thoughts and you have helped me understand so much.Well i know you are a busy man now so you go on and enjoy those walls of Jasper and those Streets of pure gold and singing with the angels.We will always miss you and will never forget you but we know you are so much better off and that we are the ones suffering now.You go and enjoy the wonders of Heaven and our Lord and Savior in your new home. We miss you terribly Basil,Love You Always Raymond and Rita

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.

4 months,how time just goes by so fast, it seems like just yesterday you were here and we were laughing and enjoying time spent together as a family.You know you are missed and loved and if I had my way you and Mom would still be here with us laughing and enjoying all of the family and the fun times that we always had together. But it can't be that way I know, but we can always dream can't we. I love you always and forever,Pam

Dad, tomorrow marks one month since you left us and joined those that left us before you. I'm sure the trumpets were singing as you made your entrance into eternity. We miss you more each day and can't wait for the day when we will all be reunited as a family. Not a minute goes by that we don't think about you. Please give all of our love to Mom, Harold, Nick, Mac, Glenn,Mavis and all of the others that left so long ago to be with the Lord. We will see you one day. Your loving family,

Basil, I am so sorry for your families loss. Your dad was the kindest, gentlest man I ever knew. He was always so nice to me, and I never heard a mean word out of him. Always smiling, seemingly always happy. I am a much better person for having known him. May you and your family find peace in your memories.

The world is a better place because of him. Now he can rest in Heaven. I am sure Harold has a good joke for him.

Sorry for the loss of such a great person. I feel very privileged to have spent a couple of weeks getting to know him at Janice's. He will always be remembered by me as a person that was fun to be around and never spoke a negative word about anyone.
