There is such great comfort in the assurance that we are not alone. God’s assurance is made manifest by the many warm and sincere expressions of care and concern you have shown us. Most of all, thank you for the prayers whispered on our behalf. Each kind deed makes real the promise of our Savior, who said: “Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.” Matthew 5:4

I can ’ t tell you Daddy, How many times I cried Since the day I was told, My precious Daddy died. It seems so impossible, Even though I know it ’ s true As everything I see around, Reminds me of you. I can still hear your laughter, And see your smiling face I would have lost my sanity, If not, for Gods Saving Grace. I have to close this letter now, But this is not goodbye For you will forever be, In my heart and mind. I Love you Daddy, Tina

Although I smile and seem carefree There is no one who will miss you More Than Me I love You Daddy

Although you cannot be here with us, we ’ re truly not a part. Until the final breath we take, you will forever be in our hearts. May the winds of heaven blow softly and whisper in your ear, how much we really miss you and wish that you were here. Love Darius Sr, Thaddius, Darius Jr and Jeremiah
