Dear Roger,
I was very fortunate to be a part of your life for the past 4 years. I loved listening to your many stories of life and travel, it was like I was taking the journey along with you, which always put a smile on my face. The $2 bill has special meaning to me now. You will be missed, but never forgotten.

Dear Dad,
Over the years you stepped beyond being a father and walked in the shoes, as my friend. Our dreams yet to fulfil together will now become 'until we meet again'. I have become the man I am today because you showed me the way.
My heart hurts to a deepth I have only known once and my tears flow down the river of love with those, of so many others who love you dearly.
I know when I see you again in heaven you will show me where the best fishing place will be, on the shores, of the River of Life. Kiss mom and Patti for me.
Your beloved son,
David

No person in this world can fill the void that a dad leaves. Who will make the pancakes and tell the amazing fishing stories.His presence will be greatly missed.
