31 Jan 2021Watch over Luci for us Connor!!
I hope you are looking down knowing how much I love you! I remember seeing you at the hospital when you were born for the first time and thought wow what a perfect baby….so handsome…
When I ran into at Popeyes and I had not seen you for a while….but the excitement in your voice just to see me and the way you squeezed me for a hug are both something I will carry w me forever!
Watch over Caden too, he’s such an awesome kid…..his future is going to be bright and you will be w him every step of the way, guide him nephew, we will protect him down here…..
My heart hurts for your daddy and your mom, and Gma Rebecca and Ronnie, and if of course I’m a little selfish too…. but to know you are running with Lions w Jesus and experiencing the beauty of Heaven brings me some comfort….I’ll see you again someday…..I love you Conor Lee!!
Uncle Joe
