Daddy,
I know you are so very aware of what’s been going on. You’ve been with us, I know that, we all know that, and others know that.
Continue to watch over us, especially your bug.
Love you much—

Daddy,

It’s been a rough week. A really rough week. I’m just ready for it all to be over. But, I know it never will be. I am just so very grateful for the temple, and the peace I find within those walls.

My heart hurts this time of year as everyone starts posting pictures on Facebook and Instagram of them and their dads. Recent pictures. New pictures. Pictures that were taken with phones... pictures of their current life. The picture I was going to share has a time stamp on it. It was taken with a throw away camera. A camera that is pretty much extinct... the time stamp is 6/23/98. Almost twenty years old...those are my pictures with you. But I’m so very grateful for them. I do have so many with you, and I know I shouldn’t complain.

Happy Father’s Day daddy! You truly are the best. I’m grateful for all you taught me, showed me and instilled in me. I miss you everyday...

It has been an emotionally exhausting day. I have physically had to
do so many things alone. It is always extra hard when I’m in the same hospital emergency room that you were taken too. I hate feeling so alone. So many emotions came back today. 11 years later and it felt like yesterday. But then the sign came that you were there. Thank you for watching over our little girl. Thank you for never leaving us. I love you always and always will.

Daddy,
A lot has happened lately. I know you’re aware of it all. We bought a house! It only took a good minute and a few attempts, but we bought a house(: That’s exciting. Hopefully we can start moving stuff in today. If not, we’ll move back in with mom for a couple of weeks and store our stuff at Melissas.
We went back to South Carolina in August. It was so so good to be back with some of my very favorite people. It was fun to introduce them to Donovan. We went when we did, because Sherrie went to the temple for her first time. She’d asked me to be her escort. It was one of the most special things. When I left over three years ago, she was Baptist! But she made changes in her life, softened her heart and became Mormon. She kept looking at me and would say, “I’m Mormon! I’m Mormon because of you. I love you! I’m a Mormon.” To which I would reply every time, “You’re Mormon because you listened to the Holy Ghost.” It was such a rewarding moment in my life. A moment I will forever treasure. I treasure Sherrie, and Sylvia, and Maria, and Shawn, and William and Brittany, and every other person I love so dearly. I didn’t know ot was possible to love so much.

I love you dad. Watch over us all a little extra these next couple of weeks. Especially mom.
Love you muchly...

I hope you are aware of all that is going on. I miss you so very much. Making it through our anniversary was hard. Yes I feel so cheated that you are not here. But of coarse I miss you everyday. I'm sorry that Rook will never be played again. I'm sorry that your name is being forgotten by some. Tyler and I talked about you and I told him some stories about the day we were married. He shared with me 2 stories from his mission that you were a part of. I know he would love to swap mission stories with you. Please continue to watch over our children as new adventures come their way. Tyler will be heading off to college soon and Kaylee will be getting her drivers license, dating and high school. I love you so very much. Always....

My heart always feels empty on Mother's Day. I know I should be happy because you blessed me with our four beautiful children. Yet I have so many emotions run through me. You made me a mother. I wish you were here to Spoil me. I love you and feel the void of your absence Every single day.

I know Ashlee would give anything for you to be hear to teach her magic, play ball with her, go on a horse ride with her, play and give her attention. Very few people do that. She is avoided, ignored and she feels it. It breaks my heart. I'm thankful my dad does all he can for her. She is looking forward to Tyler coming home to play airsoft with her. She has missed out so much.
I love you.

I love you so much. I miss you deeply.
I am struggling with many things right now.
I sure could use your advice, help, a hug. (I could go on forever)
I feel everyone is forgetting you. Life goes on for everyone and I'm the one left alone. I hate it. I don't understand. Why???
I need you. I want you. I'm hurt tonight.

My Dear Kevin,
So many things have changed since you passed away but one thing that will never change is my love for you. I miss the little things, a hug, a certain look, you holding my hand, you saying you love me, helping me with the kids, helping me with the dishes just so we could be in the kitchen together. I miss you calling me to talk about our plans for dinner or to see if I needed you to stop at the store. I miss making plans for the future. I feel so uncertain, I don't know what my future holds. When I think of the years I have until I am with you again, it feels so overwhelming. Please give me some strength. I need you. I will love you forever.

Dad,
I came to write you earlier, but I knew if I wanted to be nice I better wait. But it's okay, because for your birthday mom, the girls, Donovan and I wrote you letters, tied them to our balloon and sent them to you. So Happy Birthday.
Daddy, we've struggled in many ways the last 10 1/3 years, but especially medically. Right now, Ashlee is the one that needs Heavenely help, inspiration and guidance. She received bad news yesterday, and not sure what she'll receive today. I feel so bad for her because a 12 year old girl shouldn't feel the way she does. Nobody should.. I also feel bad for mom. She's had to deal and stress over our medical problems time and time again. Receiving no news after no news after bad news. And you aren't here to help her with the stress of that. I wish you could be here for mom...
Dad, we're moving! You know all of the details, so I won't write them. Everyone that cares, knows. Mom does, Tyler does, the girls do, Grandpa Glen does, Donovan's family and different people that we've told. I know you know the reasons of why. And every time I think of it, I am so grateful for Donovan. He's the one that suggested it. He's the one that gave reasons why. For that, I'll be eternally grateful. As I'm sure you are too.
I love you dad. You truly are the best there's ever been.
Miss you muchly

Happy Birthday Kevin. Life is nothing like we planned. But I am trying to do what I believe you would want. That is loving our children, teaching them the gospel, supporting them and trying to be happy with our circumstances. I hope when I see you someday you will proud of me.
I love you my sweetheart, best friend and eternal companion.
Forever and always. Holley

2017 is here. I wish you were going to be here to make memories with us. It feels so bitter sweet for a new year to come. It feels bitter because you are not here. It feels sweet because we are that much closer to seeing you. I love you with my heart and soul. Please continue to help us this year. I hope you always know how much the kids and I love you.
Forever and for eternity.
