Hey Papa, Just was thinking about you...I really Miss you. It saddens me that Blake wont get a chance to meet such a Great Man. But I do know you will watch over him like you are doing with the rest of the family. We are trying to set up a Family get together this summer. Really wish we did this while you were still here with us. I miss and Love you Papa... You will continue to be in my heart. Love Johnny

Dad, I take comford in knowing your no longer in pain but its so hard. When I got home my first instinct was to call and tell you I was home safely. I can't tell you how many times I thought to call you this past week. I know all our loved ones were there to meet you. Give mom a big hug for me and tell her I think of her and miss her so much. Until God calls me home I will keep you and all our loved ones that are with you in my prayers.
