I am so SORRY Dad that we had to part this way. There were so many things I wish I could have said. I know that you are in God’s hands and that He LOVES you very much as I did even though I hadn’t shown it very much throughout the years, but believe me you were always in my thoughts and prayers. I will miss you dearly and will try to stay in contact with Kathy more often. I know that God will heal me with the grief I am feeling now. I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH!! God bless and keep you in his loving hands.
