Dad, I hated to say goodbye, but God said it was time for you to come home. We have ran a good race for many years even when no one else had a clue what was going on. I knew that this day would come but not so soon. Tears come an go every time you come across my mind.You taught me to always be strong even when I was weak. I ask myself why did you leave me? Why? Not a day went by without me making sure that you were good. We laughed, and put a smile on each face every morning. You never lost Faith......most humble man I ever knew. We prepared for your final goodbye 6 months ago when there was nothing else that could be done. I promise you that I would take care of you, to not worry. Get your rest, forever in my heart. Keep smiling until we meet again. I Love youπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ

To Dad, from Jerry β€” thank you for every lesson you placed in my hands and every bit of strength you planted in my heart. You taught me how to stand tall, how to work with purpose, and how to carry myself like a man who honors God, family, and responsibility. People depended on us, and you showed me why we rise each morning β€” not for ourselves, but for the ones we love.

Your journey here is complete now. The pain is gone, the weight is lifted, and you can finally rest in the peace you deserve. Well done, Dad. Rest in the arms of the Lord.

Mr Willie has been a fixture in my life longer than I can even remember. He'll live on forever in a special corner of my heart with my own daddy; together, they are most certainly wreaking havoc up in Heaven by now. His hardworking hands have been put to rest here on earth & now he gets to enjoy the fruits of his lifetime of labor. I have no doubt that his crown in Glory is quite heavy, laden with many jewels.
