Dad,wow, it's kinda hard to express the way i feel into words.We just spoke the other day and you sid you were feeling well.Now your not here,I had hoped for awhile you were going to come and stay with me and the kids,I know you would have kept them entertained with all your stories,and I also knew you would get them im trouble with teaching them jokes, lol,and that would of been just fine! I know over the years our relationship has not been as consistant as it could of , but, i will always cherish my last thanksgiving at home in pa,where you sat with me and the kids for a meal.We were very thankful that year.Know that I have learned alot from you as i have realized you knew more about me i thought possible.More of me than alot of people do I have always felt so special to you . You've always cared, and these last few years have been so rough,but somehow you have always knew just what to say and how to make sure i realized i was not alone. Iremembe being younge and always checkkiing the mail box for your letters. I always enjoyed reading them.I was so fascinated with your handwriting and the different colors that you used. I atill have all your letters and now that your gone, i am comforted to know that your with your parents, brother,and your son Ernie. I will keep you in my every day prayers as i have been doin and light a candle every night before bed. It will be so hard this year on our birthdays since it's another reason i had always felt i was special to you in a small way. over all the years you never stopped calling me Gizmo and i had always loved that about you because no matter how big i got or how much older i grew it was a part of my life that never got old :) I will miss you dearly and love you dad, until we meet again
