Wednesday, 26 Aug 2009
Every day I miss you, and wish you were here seeing me and Syd grow up.
I wish you could have met Emily, and seen how beautiful she is.
I miss your friendly how-do!
I miss our competitions on how many waffles we could eat.
I miss long walks with Baz.
I miss going on bike rides at the trailer or going swimming.
I miss the blue house and Sun Valley Park.
But mostly I just miss you.
I will struggle with wondering why out of all people, you were chosen to leave us.
However, I know your out of pain and your probably the best angel there is.
I love you Papa! - Love Carly -
We all love & miss you every day! FONDEST LOVE YOUR FAMILY
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
