It's been 3 years since you left and went on your new journey. There isn't a day that goes by that we don't miss you. I think back on all the times we had and what you taught me and the man you help create and wish we could have had just a couple more. There is never a bad time to put a hook in the water. That's what I know your doing now. I love you and hope that one day we get to sit next to each other holding a cane pole. I miss you Dad.

So many experiences left undone and things left unsaid but we know you are still here with us as we feel your presence every single day. Love you Dad. Hope you are having a grand time seeing loved ones and catching that big one that always seemed to get away in your fish tales. We will see you again but for now have your great memory to help us get by. Love and miss you so much Daddy. Your Heathen

It has been a year since you passed. There was so many things still left to do and see between us. I know your helping guide me on the path I am on now but it doesn't take away the pain from missing you Dad. We had a great moment this morning at the creek. If only we had a pole we could have caught a couple of those fish. I wish you would have told me what you thought when I wrote that note to you. I know it was good. I miss you a lot. It is hard not to shed tears. I try to remember the good things and stay positive today. I love you Dad.

My dear brother and friend - it is about this time of night on your birthday that one of us would call the other and say "Hi twin" because for one month we were the same age. We had so much in common and shared so much, we could have been twins. I know you are watching from above and I feel your whisper "Hi twin". Love and miss you.

God saw you were getting tired, And a cure was not to be,
So he put his arms around you, And whispered, "Come to Me."
With tearful eyes we watched you, And saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best...
Love and miss you Dad

We were at irvings and I had fell and cut my chest. Now a days you would have went to the hospital and gotten stitches. I was crying and dad took some napkins and duct tape and fixed it. I stopped crying and went back to what we were doing. He fixed it. I stil have the scar today. It was the things like this that formed me into a man. You get hurt sometimes( physical, mental. emotional) you pick yourself up and keep moving forward. He told me it was going to be okay and it was. It was not till later in my life that I was able to look back and realize how much I am like him. Thank you Dad.
