It’s been ten years without you and that’s so hard to even believe. I wish I could sit down with you, back when the dinner table was in the kitchen at you & grandma’s house, and we could interview each other. I would ask you so many things. How’s Papa Sy up there? How’s Destiny and Joseph? What’s it like?

I would tell you everything that’s happened these past ten years that I’m sure you already know. Your presence is still here. But I would tell you about graduating college. I would tell you that Jodi is getting married next month! Can you believe it Gramps?? I would tell you that my fiancé and I are buying the Alano house! That’s crazy, right? I have a fiancé?? What??? I know, grandpa, I know. I would tell you all the crazy things that I went through while joining law enforcement and I know I would’ve cried to you when I made the rough decision to leave that career that I worked so hard for. I would tell you about my new job. I would tell you that our family isn’t in the best place lately but your grandkids are trying so hard to fix it and I know we will. I’m going to be 26, I think it’s time to take charge. Without family, we are nothing and I know that is a value we learned from you. There’s a lot of things our family needs to heal from, and I think you understand that. We are trying to encourage everyone to be more open to communicating feelings or else we are never going to be the same. It’s a work in progress but it’ll change, I know it.

I know you’ve been looking down on us and I can only hope that I’ve made you proud in these 10 years. I think about you often, and I even have a picture of you set up in our house (I have no other pictures out right now because I’m so slow at unpacking) I love you more than words can say and I can’t wait to see you again.

Grandpa,
I miss you every single day. I can’t believe it’s been 9 years without you down here but I know in my heart that you’ve been watching over me the whole time.
I wear your cross around my neck for tough days and it has given me safety and courage every single time.
We are taking care of grandma so you don’t need to worry. Just know that your grandchildren are trying their best to continue your legacy with the values of what family really means just as you had demonstrated and instilled in our souls.
I would give anything to have one more conversation with you.

Uncle John 5 years ago you went to be with our Lord, and we have missed your smile and laugh all the time, the way you would raz Aunt Myrt I think kept us all laughing. I miss our talks at the kitchen table, I loved the way family was always first,and how it mattered everyone stayed in contact, how holidays were special family times!! How you loved your grandchildren and your children, but mostly how you just loved!! I miss you Uncle John and you will never be forgotten but you we forever be loved.❤️

Hi Honey.....it sure doesn't seem like you have been gone 2 years...maybe it's because you are still with me in the wind, sun, and trees...the birds come and sing to me every morning and I sometimes think it's you bringing me a new song for the day:>) As we celebrate Tammy Sue's Birthday today I now realize the reason you left on her Birthday was because you wanted us to remember this day with Celebration of her life and your new life that God has given you.....the is no death to those who believe and I know you did...Rest in peace Honey until you come for me......Love you
