Papa, I will miss you more than you could ever know. I got to have you bless my husband and me in our wedding, and share stories about your parents and grandparents during visits. I love watching all the old family videos with you being a goofball. I know you are now with so much family that loves you, that you haven’t gotten to see in a long time! We will all be together again, someday, and I am happy to have another angel watching over my family.
I love you, love you, love you sooooooooooooo much!
