Dad. I miss you. I want a hug from you. Its hard not to be able to speak to you in person. To hear your inflections and perspectives. You always had a different way to see things, a separate vantage point out of my view. You helped with guidance and humblement in times of trouble. You listened when I needed you too and you spoke when I needed you to. Our bond was one of father and son and was on a special level of compassion and adoration. I only know this love with Taylor. So special, so warm and fulfilling. I pray for a special residence for your afterlife and everlasting love and closeness for your relationship with God. You are my special friend Pop, my Dad. I love you and miss you.

My precious love and life companion. For Snoopy, Abby and I, words can not express our tremendous sorrow and loneliness, without you with us each day. In our time of deepest sorrow, through the grace of God, we find comfort in knowing that in heaven we will meet again some wonderful day. It was your desire that we celebrate your departure from physical pain and your entry into eternal life of peace with your savior Jesus. Although we miss the sound of your laughter and your silly antics, we rejoice for you that you are now at peace and enjoy walking hand in hand with Jesus. I will forever love you and cherish our many happy memories. Your "Punkin" Angie Babin.
