With a heart that misses you more and more, I wish you a Happy Birthday, today. 
Your name I hear in my headm each night I go to bed
The sounds of your sweet voice, I long to hear s you whisper in my ear,
You'll come to me and say,
"Honey, I'm home and home I'll stay".,
Your truck it's not in the drive, all too soon I begin to realize
Your voice, your face, not even time does erase.
The way it was, now csn never be - I know I had to set you free.
Someday I know, I too will go to his loving and forgiving arms,
Please don't worry about me dear, for I know you'll always be near.
I'll go on some how - I hope to make you proud.
Though my heart has this void, no longer do I hear,
The sweetiest sounds that I ever know new so dear.
these words do I pray to God and you each day.
Lord, take this pain from me today, Give me the strength to carry on. 
Until, I too go beyond.  This from my heart that is still true
I'll forever be in love with you too.
  I Love You Dave, today and always
        Your wife for life, Toni

  Papa was his name to many, his children and his many many grandchildren.  One who can never call him that is our Brooklyn Eleanor, the newest grandchild for she came after his meeting with God.  But how he would love little Brooklyn, a precious little girl.  I know he sees her growing and is watching over all his precious children and grandchildren. 
  Papa your name will forever live in our hearts and minds and as we gather and speek of you it is with deep love and appreciation of you as who you were. 
  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
