You were one of a kind. You lived life exactly how you wanted. You loved your family You were a loyal friend, you were funny you made everyone laugh with your jokes. You gave all you had to give and sometimes what you didn’t have to give, your heart was truly the size of Texas. I am proud you were mine. I will cherish the nicknames you gave me forever. So go rest high on the mountain forever in my heart.

I will miss you. Love you always
Can’t believe you’re gone. Going to miss you. You were always good to me & my family, we all lloved you. I know you’re in heaven with your baby boy & you’re at peace. Love you, always have & always will…
Daddy I still cant believe this. I love and miss you so much. This is going to take a very long time to get used to. I am thankful that I was able to spend some time with you before you left. For the people that think I’m such a kind hearted person this man here is why! If only I could be more like you. I just pray that youre finally at peace with the boys and continue to watch over me and the girls. You have done something for me that I may have never been able to do for myself and I am forever thankful and blessed to call you my daddy. I can only hope that you knew how much you were loved in return. You showed me that tomorrow is not promised is far more than a cliche. I love you so so so much. I wish i could tell you one last time.
gonna miss ya cuz , love to the family
