"How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
Daddy... you were more than just a father. You were my friend, my protector and my hero. I could never thank you enough for everything you ever did for me, or every way you ever saved me.
Losing you is the worst thing that could have ever happened... and it would be easy to give up and wallow in pity. But I refuse to do that because I love you so much. Instead, I promise to honor you by living my life to the fullest, knowing that you are smiling down on me. All I ever wanted in life was to make you proud. And I hope that I can spend the rest of my days doing just that.
Thank you for being the best daddy ever. Please know that your spirit will live on. We will keep you alive through all the memories, stories and love we shared. There will never be a day where I don't think of you and smile. I will always look back and reminisce about the good ole days.
Please pet Missy, Ozzy, Bonkie and even Margie and tell them that I love them and miss them so much.
And please tell grandmom that us girls did our very best to take care of you and fulfill her final wish, and now I know she will do the same in return until we our reunited with you again in heaven someday. And of course, please tell her how much I miss everything about her and I love her so much.
But most of all, I hope you know how much I love you daddy. When I close my eyes, I can still feel your love... it was the best love in the whole wide world. Even if we had a hundred more years, it would have never been enough time.
My father, my friend, my hero, my blood...
Happy trails to you. Until we meet again.
Love always,
Missy #1 Ace
