Happy Heavenly Birthday yet again. This would have been the big 61... wish I could have shared it with you.

Happy Heavenly Birthday! Can’t believe you would have been 60 this year! Love always!

Daddy I sure do miss you I have had a lot going on the past few years thought at one point I was going to be with you but it's not that time not yet but I will see you again give granny and Papa a hug for me and I will see you again just not yet I love you and miss you every day.

Papaw words can't explain how much I miss you I just wish heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice one last time. You were always there when anyone needed a shoulder to lean on and some one to talk to. You always gave great advice. Every day is harder and harder without you but your in a better place your not in pain anymore your probably up there living the dream with Granny an Johnny Cash an Pawpaw. We love and miss you terribly... Rest easy papaw 1-7-16

I wish you were here to tell us it’ll all be ok. I miss that... You always gave me a good kick in the ass, or a pat on the back and a good talk when I needed it. That meant a lot to me and I think we all needed that from you. This past couple of years has been hard. Too many changes, and too many hard times for us all. We’re all hurting, everyday. This is our second Christmas without you here and it’s unbelievably hard. Everything has changed and I don’t feel like our family is, or ever will be, the same. Your grandkids are growing up more and more everyday, and way too fast. Aimee and Cody are bringing in another grand baby! Can you believe that!!?? I wish you were here to teach them about life, and to share your wisdom, the way you shared it with us. Nobody can fill your shoes. We all pretend to move on and everyone hides their feelings, in an attempt to be strong, but it really doesn’t work. We all hurt and miss you you... We loved you more than you’ll ever know.

Happy Birthday! We're going to eat cake for you today and it's going to be your favorite, blueberry. I'm sure they have something like it up there in heaven. We miss you all of the time. I have a new baby boy...you would have loved him. Madelyn and Alex are just as crazy as they've always been. Alex talks about you a lot. A whole lot. He misses his pawpaw! Love you more than you'll ever know. Enjoy your birthday in heaven, I'm sure that can't be beat.

Miss you so much. Wish you could be here!

You were always there ....

I sure do miss you more and more everyday. I know you're watching down laughing at us and shaking your head! We love you to the moon and back!
