I still can't beleive you are not with us today, but I'm comforted to know you are with Dad, Mom and Robert. Too many times I have wished we had spent more time together. As time goes by I also know we'll see each other again and catch up on old times. Luv ya. See ya later.

Missing you as usual. One of the hardest Christmas' yet! God I hate this for our kids, we have no "tradition" anymore. Shes not handling things well and feels so alone now that Aunt Peggys gone, so talk to her a little extra right now....she really needs it! I am so sorry you were taken from us that morning, I promise if I had it to do over again...I would......man so much different! Love You Always Amy

Hey daddy,
Well tomorrow will be 15 years and it only seems to be getting harder. We had a really good Christmas this year. everyone got together like the old days. It was really nice, dont do that as much as we all should. We really miss you. The kids are doing good, its such a shame on what they had to miss out on not getting to know you. Well its getting late and its gonna be a long week, so just know we all love and greatly miss you!

Rick,
It seems as though it was only yesterday that the angels took you home. I have always hoped that the angels were Mom , Dad and Robert. I say good morning to you every morning as I slide my hand over your name on the memorial wall on the building. I hope you feel it. It has been a little stormy lately. All are o.k. Anytime I met up with someone you worked with, They always express how they really liked working with you. You have many friends here.
I just stumbled across this site and thought I would say hi. love,Phillip
