Grandpa we sent balloons and birthday wishes to you, i hope you got them. we miss you our hearts hurt because we want you home!

Daddy, I am missing you so much and the pain and sadness does not go away. So many times I just wanted to rush home to tell you what the girls have done. You would be so very proud of them, they finished school in April and they both got honor roll and perfect attendance. They miss you so much, they still cry at night for you they want you home. We all do, but you are in our hearts 4ever!

Dad we are missing you so much, life is just not the same. I could really use some advice right now & no one to turn to. Mom is doing everything you wanted her to. MiKayla is having a very hard time and cries all the time she does not want to go to Disney or Dollywood or anywhere we use to go. McKenna is angry & sad & having a hard time too. She had 2 teeth pulled & wanted you to hug her.

My grandpa was the bestest, he always tickled me and loved me and he said we were his special grandkids. I miss him everyday and night. I can read very well now grandpa and I am going to read to you one night. I love you grandpa, McKenna

You were such an amazing husband, dad and grandpa. You were always there to help anyone out who needed it. You would give the shirt of your back if someone needed it and would not think twice about it. The love you and mama had for each other was so amazing, it felt like you were newlyweds even though you were married 50 years. You can not find a love like that anymore. You are so missed.
