Hi Babe. I can't believe that you have been gone so long. My life has changed drastically since you left. You would be so proud of our children and the adults that they have become. We are proud grandparents to 4 beautiful granddaughters and a grandson who reminds me so much of you. My heart longs and aches so much since you left me alone. I am a shell of the person you once loved. I have your military photo right where I can see your handsome face every day. I proudly display our very first and sadly our last picture together. I know you wanted me to get on with life but without you I have no life , especially now that our children are adults with lives of their own. I know that you come visit me every so often but it's not the same. I will always love you and only you. There's no room in my heart for another. We grew up together. We had adventures and traveled across Canada together. We had special moments and we were all together as a family should be. I never felt lonely or unloved unlike I do today. I miss you more than words could ever express. I will be seeing you again very soon and I look forward to it. I want a hug first thing because your tight hugs made me feel safe and secure. I just wish that you were still here in my life. You helped me feel like I had a purpose in life. You gave me our children. You gave me meaning. You gave me so much in our 22 years together. I love you more today than yesterday. I love you to the moon and back plus infinity. I will always be yours and only yours. Love Face - Posted by: Chrissy (Spouse ) on: Apr 24, 2022

It is so hard to believe that you left me 10 years ago today. We grew up together as we were together for 22 years. Loosing you in my life is still as raw today as it was 10 years ago when I got the news that you passed away. I regret the bad argument we had the night before. I wish I could go back in time and change that and maybe, just maybe you would still be here today. Despite our differences we chose to stay together so our children had what we didn't have and that was parents who loved them unconditionally. I know you still look upon them now and then and you still come to me in my dreams. I love you still and will never love another the way I loved you. I miss you so much and you are forever in my heart. - Posted by: Chrissy (Spouse) on: Sep 17, 2018

It's been 4 years, we don't miss you or love you any less dad. Growing up has been hard without you. Everyone says I look like you. Wish you were around to see where I have come. The man I'm becoming. Wish you were here to protect us. I love you and miss you everyday dad. - Posted by: Matthew (Son) on: Sep 17, 2012
