I hope that every time you hear music, see something, or get that feeling about your dad, you will know he is "there" in a special sort of way.

After someone leaves us, people say what a great guy, nice guy, friendly guy, it may be tru maybe not. With your dad the words you expressed are TRUE what a guy, I can't imagine anyone after meeting uncle Jack t could possibly not think the world of him. I love miss him very much.BevAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21078238.post-61972615122039367332012-06-17T07:28:40.321-07:002012-06-17T07:28:40.321-07:00Beautiful, Kelly.
