Your ideas have not been lost. I think of you every day as my life moves forward without the valuable advice I know you would have provided. Your grandson yearns to know his grandfather and all the valuable gifts you could should have given him. You worked so hard to make our lives easy, something I can never repay you for, I promise I will never let my own children know the struggle you knew as you raised us to be the best men we could become. I only hope that I can do as well as you have done to ensure comfort in my own children's lives. I miss you more with every passing day, if I could hear your voice it would bring me unimaginable joy. I find comfort in the fact you left my mother with the ability to raise us as you saw fit, and hope we have not disappointed you. I love you dad, and have never stopped picturing your return from Artesia, thru all the pain it has brought me. I know you would want us to be happy, but all I want is to hear your voice.
