Life As We Know It!: 2011

My Dad

Today my dad would have been 75 years old. I have celebrated his birthday in my heart all day. I have very special memories of being his little girl.

One of our special moments at Campbell Lake

I love you so much dad and you will always be in my heart. I look forward to the day that we are together again!

The last week I spent with my dad was extra special to me. He made me laugh, and I enjoyed every precious moment. He was such an amazing example to me in so many ways. He was a hard worker and true friend to those around him. He had an unconditional love for me and my family. He was so gentle and loving and made me feel like I was the most important person in the world to him. He had so much patience and never complained throughout his illness. He had a true love for my mom that I really appreciated. I will always treasure the sweet moments as we would sit and talk or even when we sat in silence together because even then I felt his love.

It was hard to say goodbye....

He left a wonderful legacy!

A huge family that loves him very much!

Until we meet again....

Family is a Little World Created by Love!

Time has quickly slipped away....but the times spent together as family have been so precious. I want to share a few highlights from the last few months that have meant so much to me.
