Daddy, I miss you so much! I hope I told you often enough how much I love you and am glaf you are my dad. I still go to pick up the phone to call you. I miss your voice and the smell of your cologne. I didn’t realize until you were gone that you are my safety. I am so glad we had that special conversation abput you always being just right around the corner. I just wish I could see you every now and then. I am trying really hard to take good care of mom but she misses you. She loves you so much. I asked Steve to say hi and that I love you. I hope you and Steve are finding the best fishing places. Just don’t fight over baseball. I love you daddy and will see you in heaven.
Don was not just a friend to me, but more like a Father figure. We met as strangers, and quickly became close Friends. I love this man for who he was and will always think of him as someone that showed unconditional love to his Family and Friends. I love you Don and will always remember the love you gave to me. Forever. Time can never change how much you mean to me. I will pass on what I have learned from you. You are safe in my heart. Love PJ
