Hey buddy it’s your grandson miss you so much wish you could be here to meet your great granddaughter I know you would spoil her to death I miss all the times we had you would be proud of me doing the best I can for my daughter can’t believe I’m 25 now I love you and miss you so much grandpa
Hey buddy it seems like forever ago just wanted to say I love you and miss you you would be so proud of me got my own place now still there for grandma and mom like I promised you you should see the property now still needs work but looks a lot better wish you was here I miss you every day thank you for watching over me your favorite buddy dalton Love you
I miss you very much grandpa I love you keep watching over me
It has been a year now since you left us and we miss you and think of you everyday.You may be gone from our sight but you will never be gone from our hearts.Dalton is growing into a fine young man and has really been great at being there for Grandma and I. Bennett Springs presented Dalton with your fire helmet and he keeps it in his room where he feels like you are still there watching over him.You would be so proud to see how much more mature he has become.Now don't get me wrong he still is that annoying teenager but we wouldn't trade him for the world. Can you believe it is almost time for him to start driving,boy talk about the gray hairs for me and Mom!!! Mom is doing well and keeps putting one foot in front of the other.She has went back to work and I think that has helped her on a day to day basis.She also has made house Captain on the fire department and I am so very proud of her as I know you would be also.She has come leaps and bounds in the year.She has been working very hard on the house and the property and keeping it looking great as we both know were your wishes. I miss you dearly and there are times I catch myself in a pickle and wonder what would Dad do or say. Then I just stop and think of all the advice you have given me over the years and I find the answer I need.I want to thank you for being the man that you didn't have to be to me.You came into my life when I needed a Dad the most and I will never forget the love that you gave to me.One day I will see you again until then I will carry you in my heart.I love and miss you Daddy##imported-begin##Dawn##imported-end##

My Grandpa taught me many things that I will greatly miss. He showed me how to ride a four wheeler and to cut tree limbs we did many things in the woods around the property that I will always remember. I greatly miss my Grandpa and love him. I will always remember that I always wanted to dress just like him. He was my Grandpa, my buddy and more like a dad then he will ever know. Love you Grandpa and miss you.
