Dad, This has been the hardest thing you have ever taught me. I will try my very best to keep my last promise to you and I will love you forever. The hole you left in my heart will never heal but I will survive as you taught me to. Rest easy and I know you are basking in the radiance of the Son!

Rest easy Dad, you have earned your mansion just over the hilltop. I'll always remember how strong your faith was all the way to the end. You've taught me so many lessons about faith and courage in these last few days, I'll try to follow your example. I love you & miss you, Barbara
