Daddy,

It has been a little over a year since you passed away. I want you to know I miss your laughs and smiles. Thank you for all the wise advise you had given to me as I grew up to be the person I became to be. You have showed me that I can be strong and not to depend on anyone. That I could do things for myself when I need to. But, you also showed me that I need to trust and depend on those who hold the key to my heart "my family."

Again thanks for spending time with me and being a big part in supporting my marriage with Jason. You always told me that we can work it all out and you always showed me to be strong in my marriage with Jason.

Thank you for being the best Daddy in the Whole Wide World. I always said when I was little that I was going to marry a man just as wise as you were in time. Who put his wife and kids first over anyone other than God.

Thank you for being the Best Grandfather that you can be to your grand kids Jadon, Searena and Shelldon. I know you loved us all. We all love you.

Now you are gone from us now but one day we will see you again in Heaven. You asked me to take care of mom if you ever pass away and I will try my best to keep my promise to you. I love you and want to make you happy.

I am happy that I made you proud of me, for all that I have accomplished in life and in time.

Again thank you for everything.

I Love You Daddy

Love Always
Daddy's Girl

I miss you playing around with me.
I miss the BBQ, latiza and fish you make.
I miss cuddling and watching WWE with you

I love you Papa I will see you in Heaven one day.

The world is a different place without your smiles and laughter. Heaven is a wonderful place with you there.

The pain you experience from the loss of your loved one is the reminder of all the love you feel for him- gone but will never be forgotten. An angel on the clouds of heaven... a gaurdian angel looking down on his family. May his soul rest in eternal peace. God bless.
