Loosing a Dad is one of the most difficult things to go through. It was not until he was gone that we realized how much you never take for granted. Our Dad made us the women and mothers we are today.
Our Dad was strong, loving, hard-working, and very caring. He loved his family and was deeply devoted to our Mom and us girls. He taught us many things growing up from building a clubhouse, to making meals for our future families. He taught us to love without limits and overcome conflicts with ease. He accomplished everything he set his mind to. He would say, never give up on your dreams. You can do what you put your mind to. That is a lesson we will cherish forever from him.
He was not only a loving Dad and husband but a wonderful grandfather. He taught our children many things from planting a flower in the garden to how to swing on the playset, also telling them it was alright to get dirty when they would cry about the dirt on their little hands.
Even at the end he was still the very strong man he always was. He hardly ever got sick. He was always tough and stuck through anything. In the end he was still the same man we loved all the years we had him in our lives. He stayed strong and loved us no matter what. We will miss him dearly, but we will be at peace knowing that he is now at peace and not hurting anymore, as he watches over us all.
Daddy you were amazing and we will all love you forever and a day. That is the promise Mommy and us girls made to you years ago and we as your children and grandchildren will continue that promise also. One day we will be the ones that have passed and we know that our children and grandchildren will cherish your memory and our memory as we cherish yours. Until we meet again, DADDY, we all love you!
