Dear Dad,

I remember a lot of things growing up that I don’t think I ever really thanked you for….For instance…being my Dad. I thank god for blessing me with you as my dad because of all the little things that you did for me. Protecting me when I needed it most, being there for me when I needed most but most of all the conversations that we had. I remember calling you and you saying “Hey Krys, is this you?” “Yea dad it’s me”. How’s it going mija? Etc etc. I took those little things for granted Dad and I’m sorry. I realize now that those words mean the most to me. I know I will never be able to call you and have those conversations again but I can still hear your voice and I will never forget it. I’m holding you and our memories so close to my heart.

We were going through pictures and just reminiscing about old times and it felt good to see you in all the pictures especially when I was a baby and you were holding me in your arms and kissing me, oh what I wouldn’t give to be able to go back to that day, I would kiss you right back and never let you go Dad.

I know God does not give us what we can’t handle but……………I am having a hard time letting you go Dad, I don’t want to, I shouldn’t have to, I want you here with me and My mom and my brothers. I just wish I had a little more time with you Dad to say the things that I never did. I LOVE YOU DAD.

Dad, I love you with all my heart and I will never stop. I will hold all of our memories close to my heart and never let go. I hold you close to my heart Dad and there you will stay forever till we meet again.

Love your daughter always

Krystle Monique Federico
