Sorry I'm late on wishing you a 90th birthday Daddy, just so much going on in my life I thought of you all day on your day. I wouldn't take for the last years I was able to spend with you on your birthday. I was going to bake you a cake So I could hear you laugh at it for I'm such a good decorated lol, but I didn't for I knew I could not eat it all lol. I miss you and momma so much, not a day goes by that I don't think of you both and I normally shed a few tears during the day. I've never knew the heartache of losing a parent but I can tell you I've never experienced this sadness and pain before. I think some days the only reason I'm still here is for our fur babies. I know you and momma are together singing and dancing in the skies with no worries and none of this BS here on earth. I just wanted to tell you Happy Heavenly Birthday Daddy and may you save a dance for me when I enter the gates. Love you bunches!!

Hello Daddy, I wanted to let you know I think of you everyday not just today but everyday. It's been 2 years the 24th of this month that I last kissed you bye and told you how much I love you. I miss you and mama so much and it just doesn't seem like 2 year for I can still hear your sounds though out the house.  I know you're in so much happiness and pain free now but how my heart still ache's for you and mama. Sending you all the kisses and hugs I have. Baby girl Aubrey sure has grown you would be so proud of her. She plays with the dancing animal you got her all the time and just talks to it. She see's your picture on the wall and calls you Papa! Until we meet again daddy you're always in my heart. Love and miss DADDY!!!

Thought of you today daddy as I think of you everyday. I missed having you here to sing happy birthday to me. Moma, Odis, Rochelle and Aubrey sang to me and we had some cake and I thought of you while eating and wished you were still with us.

Yvonne, Moma and I made a beautiful shadow box in your memory with your photo's, lock of hair, thumb print your belt buckle, knife and the roses we got you. How I wish you could see it I know you would love it. 

We got to light the fireplace and it helps keeping moma warm :~)..  She sure does like it and says how she only wishes you could have gotten to see it burn.

Daddy I miss seeing you every morning in your chair when I get up or the sound of your computer coming on. Moma misses you so much, she is trying to be so strong but I know her heart is so broken , for when you left us you took a piece of each one of our hearts with you.

Well Daddy the day as come to an end and tomorrow is a new day. I will continue to keep my promise to you to take good care of Moma and all the baby dogs. We love and miss you everyday we will see you again when the lord call's us home until then we will stay strong and keep you in our thoughts and hearts. Love you Daddy!!!

Dub was always my favorite uncle. He had a spirit for having a bit of michievousness to him and always seem to understand what it was to be the age I was. All of the family gatherings seem to be a little more fun when Uncle Dub was there. I have a grandchild born on your birthday. I wished I gotten to see you more.

LOVE YOU HONEY

Although I hadn't visited you in years I still think about you a lot and I know the girls and Aunt Ruby miss you so much. Love you.

Love you. We had some good memories together. Blessed we had those that I can look back on always.
