Dad

How we miss you! It was two years yesterday morning when you held our hands and drifted away. You looked so peaceful and we knew you hurt no longer. The Angels came and took you with them to a better place in the heavens.

I know you're still here amoung us because I hear you and feel your presence. Our walls bare your photos and we pass them by every morning and throughout the day. I especially love the one by the front door of you waving, as to say "I'll be seein' ya!" I think that one is my all time favorite! The playful smile, the happiness in your face, that is how I want to remember you:



We look at those photos of you with Makayla and see the gentleness you had within you. I only wish you could have been here longer so she could get to know her Great Grandpa and the great man that he was. You had your quirks, but who doesn't.

You were the Dad I never had. You did not judge, but encouraged. You were there for me when I was going thru some terrible times and loved me for who I was. I didn't have to prove anything to you, just be myself.

I love you, I miss you!
