I can’t believe this is the 2nd birthday without you. We all grieve for you, miss you and talk about all of the wonderful times we had with you every single day. Mom bought a birthday balloon for you yesterday. Tanner is on his way home to celebrate your birthday with us. Mom, Dalton, Tanner and I are sending you birthday messages on the balloon later today. Our hearts are broken from losing you and they always will be. We see the signs you send to us and we know you are watching over us. We know you are not in pain anymore and are with Papa, Mama and Randy but we are selfish and want you here with us. We miss your humor, your laugh and your hugs. We say I love you to each other every time we are together just like you always did. You will forever be such an important and wonderful person in our lives and the center of our family. Thank you for the wonderful life you and Mom have given Tanner, Dalton and I. We will honor your memory for the rest of our lives. I hope you are doing something fun, like fishing in heaven, for your birthday! I really appreciate all of the blessings you’ve sent Tsnner at K-State fir a wonderful college experience and for sending such a kind and wonderful person like Erin to him. She will be with us on Easter so that will be fun! I’ve planned alot of games and prizes and I know you’ll be there enjoying them with us too! I hope you have an amazing birthday and we love you very much!
Love you forever,
Tam-Tam

These birthday’s without you here don’t get any easier. I miss your laugh, I miss our talks, I miss having you here to give me advice. You are my best friend and I miss and love you so much. Have a great birthday. Say hi to Poppy, Uncle Danny, Mom, papa and mama for me.

Love,

Dalton

Really missing you, every time something funny happens or makes me laugh I think of your laugh and it makes me smile. This still doesn’t feel real. I love you more than you’ll ever know I hope I’m making you proud.

Love,

Dalton

Life without you is so hard. We had a good Christmas but it’s just not the same without you. I don’t mean to sound so down. Grandma, Tanner, Aunt Tam and I find comfort in each other’s company. We laugh we make memories. We are all trying as best we can. It’s just we all miss you. I’d give anything to call you on the phone again and hear your voice or to just give you a hug. Your little buddy loves you so much.

Love,
Dalton

I can’t believe another Christmas is here without you. Not a day has gone by without us missing you or remembering one of the million memories we have of you. Mom, Tanner, Dalton and I are so appreciative of all of the many blessings and signs you have sent our way. We know you are still with us, protecting and guiding us especially through the many times we are grieving from losing you. Thank you for keeping Tanner safe at college, for his beautiful apartment and very nice girlfriend, Erin, you sent his way. I also know you brought Mom and Dalton’s wonderful dogs, Graycie and Katana, into their lives to bring them happiness and comfort. I know you are there for me EVERY time I need my dad. You taught me so many things that help me so much as a single, independent woman and I am
forever grateful. You are with us always in everything we do and we will love and miss you forever.
Merry Christmas, Dad
I love you,
Tam-Tam

I really miss you, life just isn’t the same here without you. Thank you for helping me find my new best friend Katana. I really wish I could talk to you and get your advice. I hope I’m making you proud. I miss you so much and I think about you every second of every day. I love you so much.

Love,
Dalton

It is 1 year ago today that we lost you. Tanner and I share memories of you everyday. We love and are comforted by the many signs you send to us, especially when we need it the most. Yesterday, Tanner heard two songs on the radio. One song was about how you lived each day to the fullest and the other was a favorite song you and Tanner would play when you would go fishing in the fishing boat you both loved and made so many wonderful memories in. Last night at work, I was feeling sad, and I found the penny you sent me under my desk. It made me so happy! Tanner is coming home this next weekend and we are sending you a balloon in your honor. We appreciate you for watching over us, especially Tanner while he is away at college. Last weekend, Tanner showed me the beautiful lake that has a park bench where he sits and talks to you often. I really hope you can see and hear him. Thank you for the strength we get from you to get through the hard times and for the wisdom to figure things out. We miss you every day and we love you forever.
Love, Tam Tam

Today was such a sad day for us. We all miss you so very much! I really missed shopping for you and picking out a card that told you how much you mean to me. You have always been the best Dad to me and a wonderful Grandpa to Tanner and Dalton! Everyday we feel the pain of losing you. Mom, Tanner, Dalton and I will ALWAYS have a broken heart with you not here with us. Thank you so much for all of the signs you have sent us and for continuing to guide us and protect us! We went to Manhattan to release a balloon for you and Tanner attached one of your favorite flies you used to like to fish with! We also sat in the courtyard at Jardine and lit some of your flashlights and talked to you. I really hope you heard us.
I love you more than words can say Dad. Love, Tam Tam

Happy 74th birthday! Oh, how I wish you were here so I could make your favorite chocolate cake and get you the traditional flashlight gift. I always had so much fun finding you a flashlight that was not like any you had ever had! I found one in the pocket of your jacket the other day and the fish one in your desk. You always appreciated any gift you were given. Mom, Tanner, Dalton and I miss you EVERY single day. We will all be together this coming Saturday to celebrate you and your birthday. We hope you know how much we love you and think about you everyday. Thank you for protecting us and guiding us still. Love you forever, Tam Tam
