Just a brief thank you to all who have sent their thoughts and prayers to my family. This is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life but I want you all to know that I appreciate and take comfort in all the love that surrounds my Daddy and my family. It is hard to explain how it feels to be so loved but I can tell you it is a blessing. Please continue to have us in your prayers.
My Daddy was and will always be one of the best Fathers and Pappys ever! I always think of him as being my human example of God's love because if anyone on earth had that my Daddy did.
Love to all.

Dear Michelle,
We are praying for your family, your mom and brother. My mom sends her love and she is praying for you! I am keeping your blog up on my computer, so that every time I pass by I will stop and pray. May you have a peace that passes all understanding. Sending lots of love and prayers your way!!!!!!!

Love,

Michele...my heart is with you and your family. You and your family are very special to me. Seems like yesterday, we were little girls riding our bikes to each others house. We had lots of good times together and that is memories I will cherish forever.

Your Dad was a very sweet man...I always loved your parents. I will lift your family up in my prayers, I will pray for God's peace to be with you. We will all meet again one day..what a wonderful day that will be!!

God Bless you sweetie. We love you. Please, give your mother a big hug from me.

In God's Love,
Al

Michele,
I thought it was a very nice service last night. Your dad was loved by many!! Your father was a great man and no one will forget him. Today will definitely be a tough day for you and your family. Today will also be a special day because it marks the day your father first became a father. He loved being a father and a grandfather and he couldn't have been those without you. If you can't bear to think about your birthday today,think of today as a celebration of your father's life as a father.

Please take care of yourself and take one day at a time. Call me if you need ANYTHING!!

I love you,
Kim

Hey Baby,
I love what Kim said about letting today be a celebration of when David became a father. I remember that day well. We love you and you are in my thoughts....so far every night at about 2:30....so if you can't sleep just think to yourself that Aunt Joy is awake and thinking about me!

Thank you to everyone. Yes, Aunt Joy, I'll probably be up with you but I hope it gets better with time. Yes, I told several people last night that if he hadn't been my Daddy I wouldn't have ever had a b'day so I'm ok with that. Just missin him like crazy!!
Love you all!!
