Today, 7 years ago I said goodbye to one of the greatest men I’ve ever known. My daddy. There isn’t a day that goes by I don’t think of him. I could set here and type all day and tell you about what a wonderful father he was, how he loved his children, and how he adored every step my mom took. His love was endless as mine is for him and my family. He worked so hard for us that sometimes I was afraid he wouldn’t make it home. We never had the greatest life but we didn’t do without what we needed. He made sure of it, no matter the sacrifice or danger it took. He taught me it’s the little things that matter the most. The little things turn into huge things as life happens and time goes on.
I love you dad, one day I’ll see you again and I cannot wait to hear your voice and see your smile. Dad one of your hearts desires was to find your precious daughter Teresa Gail Wilder. Dad we found her! Me, Sandi K Williams and Tabitha Paula Ann Maddox. Although many times you was denied vital information; we were too. With Gods help, we found her! I wish so much you could have met her and her family. Dad she is beautiful and she looks just like you! Her children; your grandchildren are beautiful! I know you are looking down and you see all of them and us. I promise I will share your life with them.
Dad today was beautiful. It was really hot and we spent the day at the pumpkin patch with the kids and some great friends. I miss talking to you about the weather. But as pretty as it was here, I know it can’t even almost compare to what you are seeing in Heaven. I love you dad. Rest In Peace and keep those lil mean Joseph kids in line til I get there.
