I will miss my dad so very much! He was my everything & I�m lost without him! He will never see Samantha grow up or Buddy! That breaks my heart! Samantha loved giving her papa kisses on his cheek! She�ll wonder where he is & it�s going to be hard to explain to a 3 year old that papa is in Heaven & we�ll never see him again! Atleast not here! Can�t wait until we see each other again one day dad! I know you�re with Grandma,Papa and Aunt Wanda and Uncle Scott! You�ll never be forgotten! I promise you that!
