Dad,
It's been 11 years already since you were called home, I miss you so so much. Mom is with you now, and I can only imagine the celebrations. She was ready to be in Heaven and with you again. My heart will never be the same, but peace is found in knowing neither of you are suffering anymore. I love you forever; my Warrior!! 

Pappaw, today is 11 years since you’ve left us, I miss you so much. This year is a little extra special for you, but especially different for us. This year you and mammaw are together. She was ready to be with you again, and I know that you both are dancing those beautiful streets of gold. I’ll never forget our memories, and I’ll cherish them forever. I love you so much.

Pappaw today is another special day for you, if only you were here to celebrate with us. How I miss you everyday. You were one special man to me. I loved you so much then and I still love you today. I know your life in heaven is magical and I wouldn’t want you to trade that for anything, But always remember I love you and miss you.

Man, I sure do wish you were here so I could see how good 83 actually looks. I’m with Nenn Nenn today, and the Lord only knows what both of us would do for a hug. I miss you so much more than I will ever be able to explain to anyone. I know that you’re up there having the party that ALL of us dream of. Happy Birthday Pappaw, I’ll see you again one day and I love you so much!

Hey Dad! Happy Birthday to you!!!

Guess who is with me today - Kristen who is Kaysen now. Here to visit and also share memories of you. We are doing good Dad - living and growing off the wisdom and guidance for life that you shared with us all. It's hard at times I just need you here with me - to hug me and pray for me like only my Dad could. I know you are with me in spirit. I'm sure you would be proud of us... I love and miss you so much Dad - My warrior!

Dad - It's been 10 years already since you were called home. I sure do miss those strong loving hugs, the inspirational conversations, the side hurting laughs we had and those prayers you would pray with me. I used to tell everyone that you had a direct line to God when you prayed. While the leaves are falling and the colors are beautiful, I can't even imagine what you see. I love you and miss you so much Dad - My Warrior!

I miss you Dad - Happy Birthday - 82 years of age! I'm sure your celebration today will be amazing! My Warrior!!! I love you so very much!! 

Another year without you has passed already. It doesn't get easier without you however I still try my best to live by the morals and standards I was raised by. Keep watching over me like I know you are as I feel your presence within me. I bet the party you had in Heaven was amazing!! 80 years old!! I LOVE YOU DAD - my Warrior! 

We had a dinner for you on the 7th anniversary of your going home Dad. Me, Dana, Bill, Kristen, Mom, Hannah, Makenzie, Tiffany, Tosha and her daughter. We had a beautiful day however; wishing you were here with us. We let balloons go for you and had one of your cigars - it was gross Dad. LOL - We laughed at memories and we held each other and cried. I love you my Warrior.

I love you Dad ~ I remember the birthday celebrations we have had together and I can only imagine the wonderful celebration you had in Heaven. I miss you so much at times I simply lose my breath. I miss you so much.........I LOVE YOU!

I love and miss you Dad! My heart and my days have not been the same since you were called Home - however; I carry your love and wisdom in me.
