Dear Dad, 

Happy Birthday!!!  These last few months have been difficult since you been gone.  I remember the good old days growing up and how we were inseperatible.  All I wanted to do is be with my Dad, I followed u everywhere.  You were a inspiration and taught me how to accomplish anything.  Even when we had a birthday party for you, you hated the attention, but loved the cake.  You were a simple man, who appreciated his children.  A contagious sense of humor that stll today, I catch myself mimmicking you.   The best part of my life were those days when my friends came over the house and you were making them laugh & joke.  They thought you were the coolest Dad!!!  Today, we celebrate you for all you have done in the past just being our Dad.  I hope Heaven has an ocean to go fishing in...that is all u needed to be happy!  I love you Daddy and miss you soo much.  


Your Daughter, Victoria     

This picture was taken by our Nannie, who was a self-proclaimed photographer.  My parents would take us out to a special dinner in Ocean City while on vacation in July.  This picture brings tears to my eyes....

I loved giving everyone rabbit ears in pictues, especially my Dad!!!

Peter was my parents "pride & joy"!!!!   He was sooo spoiled and got away with everything, because not only was Peter the youngest, but the cutiest little boy.  Love ya Pete.
