Happy birthday dad. We love you and you'll forever be in my heart.

Happy Birthday Dad! You will forever be missed.

Love you forever Dad. Thank you for being a part of my life and bringing me into existence and raising me. You will always be loved and never forgotten.

To my father:
For a good part of my adult life, you and I bumped heads. I found out later on that you were trying to aide me from making mistakes you did when you were my age during that timeframe. That became clearer to me when your friends told me of your lifestyle before you met mom. I am thankful that we reconciled the matter by the time I got married. I now understand some of the choices you made, good and bad. And if anything else, I appreciate the life lessons you gave me when we lived in Haiti as I was starting manhood. I will not emulate your enthusiasm for church, but understand now the reason you did. I am grateful that I saw you this year before your passing, and that you had a chance to met your grandson. I will make sure he knows who you are. Miss you dad. "Ok, Ok,Ok"

To my loving father, I thank you for raising me to be a strong, independent woman. I will be sure to raise my daughter in a similar fashion. She will know her grandfather; I'll be sure to riddle her with stories detailing your wit and fierce loyalty towards your family and friends. I am comforted because I know you are in a better place. Watch over us always Dad.

To Wilel and Family...a Dad is a powerful force in a child's life...he is the sun that shines brightly with love and warmth on you...when that light is dimed be not troubled because the rays will continue to shine on you all and brighten your days each time you remember and share memories. My condolences on your loss - You and Your Family are in my prayers...
