Dad,
What else can be said about a dad who was always there to help you when you needed something fixed,
someone to watch the kids when they were off from school, pick the kids up at school.
We will miss having you over for dinner and then watching a movie when dinner was done, going for icecream at Plushhorse, bringing leftovers to your house.
But the hardest part will be going to Turkey Run and not seeing Mom & You sitting their with us.
As you said quite often the past couple months that you wanted to go home, Well dad you are now at your new home reunited with mom,
You two need to catch up on the time spent apart.
Don`t worry about us down here,you & mom taught us to stay close to each other and love each other.
Love,
Dave,Debbie,Emily,
Joe & Ben

SANDY AND FAMILY, I AM TRULY SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF YOUR DAD AND GRANDFATHER. THERE ARE NEVER THE RIGHT WORDS TO SAY TO HELP YOU IN THIS MOMENT, BUT TO SAY I AM TRULY SORRY. HE IS AT PEACE, TAKE COMFORT IN THE THOUGHT. I KNOW YOU ALL WILL MISS HIM TERRIBLY BUT HE'LL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU IN YOUR HEART AND THOUGHTS. GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU.

Dearest Cousins, I was very saddned to hear about your dad. His passing is like another link to my own father being gone. But you can rest assured as long has he trusted Jesus Christ as his only way to heaven then he is there now with others that have done the same like my dad & your mom. There are in the best place ever. Like our pastor says they have only changed their address because they are still alive in our hearts. Love & prayers, Your cousin
