Dad, you left us way too soon! Words cannot express how much you mean to me and how much pain I'm feeling now that you are no longer here. I love you Daddy- and I wish that all the pain you felt i could've taken and felt it for you. I know that you fought so hard for us, because you didn't want to see us suffer_
- and i want you to know that I thank you for giving all of us more time to enjoy you- because i know you could've given up- but you chose to stick around to make us happy- i will always remember you Daddy, and will make sure that my girls know what a great and loving grandpa they had- till we meet again Daddy...I love you!!!
