There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you but today well it's special. It's your 27th birthday. if you were still here, knowing Mom she would've probably made you a cake or chocolate pie and asked you to stop by for a little while to see her, and Pa, and of course your dad. You'd have had cards with some money in them too because that's what they always do. You wouldn't have stayed nearly long enough because there's Sarah your mom, and Nanny and your kids to see and friends too that maybe you'd want to celebrate with. But whatever time any of us had with you was precious. Don't know if you ever really realized how important you were to us or how loved you were. But now you're in heaven and I hope it's as wonderful as we've heard and that the birthdays you spend there are much happier there in heaven with God. I do know you're at peace. Just know we still miss you here. Happy Birthday Dokken with all my love, AP
