I now know the beauty of life,

And understand the deepest sorrow.

I know the soaring of heartfelt joy,

And the dire hope of tomorrow.

I now know with each faltering step,

Faith comforts and sees us through..

I know now the true meaning of love,

With the cherished memories of you.

Although we are physically torn apart,

Our journey will never, ever end.

It continues with our love uniting us,

Until one day we will meet again.

Until that day, dearest...........

Two years ago today you were called home and took the great step from faith into vision.  You found a life far more beautiful than the eye of man has ever seen or the ear of man has ever heard or the mind of man has ever imagined.  You are in a wonderful place, being rewarded for your strong faith in the Lord.   We who are left here are all living our own private hells, all the while hoping to join you in that beautiful land one day.  Until then, know that you are loved and missed and that not a day goes by that you're not thought of.  Rest in eternal peace, my dearest~~

This has been the toughest two years of my life.  I still think that I will come home and find you here or open a door and there you'll be. I  find it terribly hard to believe that you are really gone from me for forever....or until that time that I can join you.  I think of all of the things that you used to say and do....the things that endeared you to me and the things that could infuriate me.  I want to be infuriated again!!  I hope that somehow you know how much you are missed and loved.  You left a huge hole in not only the hearts of your family but in the hearts of so many others.  I pray for the strength to continue my life and just rejoice in the fact that you are in a place where there is no pain nor suffering.  I love you as much today as I ever did, and I miss you terribly.

 

 

 

Tomorrow will make two years since you left us. For a long time I was so sad that you weren't here anymore and that we couldn't be around your laughter and wisdom but over time I have realized that you never really left and that you're still here. Not a day goes by that I don't say something about you, whether it's something funny or something you taught me, etc., etc. And sometimes just when I think I can't take anymore and my heart feels overwhelmed, you are there. You are there in my thoughts and memories and I realize how much you taught me. The most important thing you (and mom) taught me was about love and the special bond ya'll always shared. I see now how truly rare and beautiful your connection was to one another. I can only hope to have that one day. And I guess the other big thing you taught me was how to be strong, which has gotten me through so many hard times, including the worst day of my life, which was when you left. I know you watch over me and I know you're still here with me which gives me great comfort but I still miss you more than I could ever explain. I hope I still make you proud in everything I do but mostly I hope you're proud of the woman you taught me to be.

I wish Heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I’ll never part. God has you in his arms... I have you in my heart!

Love you daddy and miss you everyday!!

Falling in love is easy, but staying in love is something very, very special.  I'll always love you, my darling........

It happened again the other day. I smelled you. I was sitting at my desk when it happened, I gasped and looked around. I knew you were around me. Mom asked me to describe it but I can't really. It's just your smell, a clean, aftershave type smell. I only know that it is unmistakeably you. I know it's your way of letting me know you are never far away. I love you and miss you every day!

Gracie was so close to you and misses you dearly. But I know she has faith and I know you are around her all the time.  She has told me she sees you in the hall at her school, you are sitting there painting and wearing your lab coat. She tells me she smells you sometimes, just as I have. It lets me know that you are never far away and always watching over us.  I sometimes wish that others could see the faith of a little child.  We carry you in our spirit--always.

Gosh do I ever miss you!!  I've gotten myself into another fine mess and wish you were here to comfort me and give me your great wisdom. You tried to tell me but I wouldn't listen. However, I know you are watching over me and giving me the strength to do what I must do.  You taught me well and if it's the last thing I do I am going to prove your saying--The cream always rises to the top!
