Dad, Today as I remember you, I smile, with a little tear in my eye, as I am filled with the lifetime of beautiful memories you have left me with. Thank you for being a wonderful, dad, grandpa, father-in-law, and so much more. I love you!

Today would have been your 81st birthday.
Happy Birthday Dad! We love you and miss you so much, but just as you would want, we remember you today with laughter and a smile, instead of tears.

I think of you often and we remember you whenever we look through our pictures. What a special person you were to Mom and me and the girls. I'm glad you are both together now.

Dad,
  It has been one year since you left this earth. I can't believe it has been that long. We miss you so much. Anja said, "Mom, I miss the way Grandpa's eyes sparkled when he was happy or proud about something I did." We have always said that about you. When you were proud or very happy it would fill you up and spill over through your eyes and smile. Dad, you were such a loving person and that has left our family with the greatest gift. You were always a man of your word, honest and fair. I admired that so much about you. If you did business on a hand shake, it was a good as a written contract. I wish the world was full of more people like you. You passed this on to your children and grandchildren through your example. God bless you Dad, I am glad that you are with our Lord now and are not suffering as you were before you died. I will see you again someday. I love you! ~~Cherie

Don was my first crush in elementary school. I wrote about him every day in my diary and have admired him all through our school years at Billinghurst, Reno High,and UNR. Although I have not known him in more recent years, I shall keep near the precious memories of Don, his gentleness, his humor, his achievements at a different time we shared.

Don and his brothers grew up in the same neighborhood as my dad, Clyde. My dad has recently suffered a stroke and is recovering well but asked me to send a note to you to tell you how sorry he is to hear of Don's passing. He said he was a wonderful man and they shared many happy times together. May you all have peace knowing that he is so well remembered.

Don was a wonderful person and a pleasure to work for and with. He hired me when I first came to Nevada over 20 years ago. Salute to you Don and my sympathy goes out to his family and friends. You will be missed.

Don, you may be away from us for a time, but the impact you had on our lives while on earth will always remembered. Your warm welcome, sweet smile, loving ways are cherished in our memories. Your legacy of love and caring continues through the lives of your wonderful family. Until we meet again...

The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his [Jesus’] voice and come out. (John 5:21, 28, 29). Jesus Christ promised that our deceased loved ones will live again. (Revelation 21:3.4; John 3:16; and Matthew 5:5.). May this promise and your cherished memories of Don comfort you and bring you peace. Loving thoughts are with the family

Dad I wish I could put into words how sad I am your gone.You will always be here in our hearts and memories. You were always there for us and we love you so much! I have three wonderful Bissett boys that will grow up to make you proud!

Dad, I miss you more that you will ever know. My heart aches and although I feel an intense emptiness, I am also filled with years of beautiful memories. The last years have been difficult, but I would not trade being here with you for anything in the world. It was my privilege, that I could be here to take care of you. I will see you again someday in Heaven. I love you so much.
