A tribute to the man whom I called Dad:
My Father always loved the outdoors, fishing, hunting, being in the water. I have very fond memories of the many rocks we moved to help the flow of water and for his children to have a better time in the cold waters of Tennessee.
In the last few days of his life we enjoyed chocolate sundaes (his favorite and mine), watching squirrels eat nuts from the window seal, and telling each other how much we loved one another. During his last few weeks I met many people who knew my father for his compassion, understanding, service and the impression he left on their lives. I will treasure their stories for a lifetime and longer:)
I miss him terribly his smile, his laughter and the words of wisdom he always seem willing to give me even when I wasn't looking for them.
He was a wonderful Husband who love my mom very much and in the end he knew her, he kissed her and he loved her with his very last breath.
These are the moments when I am most greatful for the Gospel and the joy it brings to my soul that we will be reunited as a family and I will get to see him again.
I love You Daddy
