Hi daddy, I'm sorry I didn't get to write on your birthday or father's day. I had surgery again daddy. It was the 5th time in a year. It's been a really rough year for me. I almost died and joined you February 4th last year. My colon ruptured and I had to have emergency surgery. It was the beginning of a really hard year for me. It's been tough but I've made it thru. Thank you for looking out for me. I have no doubts you were with me this year during my hard times. God I miss you so much daddy! Watch over my kids daddy when I can't be with them pls. Tanner especially, he worries me allot. They're still need you too. They tell me all the time how much they miss you. Mamaw Juanita joined you this past year. That was hard on me but I bet it was amazing for you! She's with papaw now, both papaw's. I'm not quite sure how all that works in heaven when you're married to 3 men that pass away. But I'm sure she's giving them all down the road at times for something lol. God I miss her too daddy. I've got to setup a page for her too. I just thought about that. She needs one too. I wished Tammi a happy birthday yesterday but I don't think she got the message. I sent it on Facebook. I had forgotten her phone number. We all miss Shelby too. Michelle's not let any of us see her since you've been gone. You know, you didn't have the best luck picking women in your life. I understand that all too well unfortunately... I wish I didn't sometimes. My brother and sisters have grown apart from me daddy. I've honestly spent about as much time as I care to trying to get the family back together. I've done all I know to do. They're stubborn and think they know what's best. I was just trying to keep the family together like I promised you I would. But I need a little help and they're not willing to cooperate. If you can do anything on your side to help things along it would make things much easier on me. Remind them of all the good times we've had and all the times I've brought them for when they didn't have any or diapers. That might help, idk at this point. I'm sickly, I'm old and my bodies just breaking down. I can't do anymore. I'm having to have a nurse take care of me 5 days a week now. I can barely keep my stuff together. But I do miss my brother and sisters. So if you have any pull by all means lay it on their hearts to reach out to me. I'd love to see them. I especially miss Macey! She's all grown up now. I've seen pictures and she's beautiful daddy. Just like her mommy. I miss them so much! Toni's got some beautiful babies daddy. I need you to continue to watch over me daddy. I need you everyday. I love you always and forever! Give mamaw my love.

Hello Rick....It's already been a year!!! Time has no limits or boundaries!! I have spoken with your 2 oldest daughters since your passing, so that's a good thing.They seem to be doing ok, every day goes by just as fast as the years. They are a missing you badly, especially it being a one year anniversary. Watch over them & comfort them thru this trying time.

Daddy i miss you so much it takes my breath away!

Hey Rick. How is Heaven treating you? I know you wasn't prepared for what was ahead of you. I just hope you had peace made with the Master. You knew what it was all right & wrong. Now you are with your family all ready gone ahead. Tell Cecil I think of her often. She left a great impression where ever she went. Enjoy the wait, it won't be long!!!

Hello Rick. Been along while. You walk the streets of gold, I am sure you will recognize many. No pain no more.Only sweet & beautiful Heaven. I am sure by now you recognize many. You have a great family & that will be your job to be the Guardian Angel of all them. You will be busy.Your time on here was shortened because of the choices you made in life. Always liked you. Love ya, Darlene
