Ethel,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Another star has been added to the
heavens as a light has been taken
from our lives. May Jerry rest in
eternal peace.

Dad,
I miss you so much already. You were my rock when I needed advice or help with something. I could always depend on you to be there for me. You were the most wonderful, caring, hardworking father I know and always had my best interest at heart even if I didn't think so at the time. Jacob and Sarah really miss you already. I know you tried hard to get better for them so you could see them again and I told them you said you were sorry and that you loved them. It's just not going to be the same without you. I know you are with all our loved ones in heaven and spoiling my little boy right now. Love you always.
