Love you so much dad

It has been 1 year since you left us on this Earth, but you are in my heart always. I love you forever. Till we meet again.

It has been one year since your passing, dad.  I sometimes feel like you're just still vacationing in Arizona and coming home soon. It's difficult to accept the reality that I won't be able to hang out or talk with you anymore.  Despite your lack of physical presence, know that I still carry you in my heart and mind each day.  Love you, dad. <3

Happy 66th birthday, dad!  I hope you're having a big Heavenly celebration today with all the family and friends that are surrounding you up there.  You are loved always and thought about each and every day.  Miss you lots.  <3 Love, your "little girl"

It has been 2 years since we lost you and it has been the most lonely time of my life.  I love you dad.

It's been two years since your passing, but you remain in the hearts and minds of your family every single day.  Aunt Jody, grandma, and I each raised a slice of Rocco's pizza in your honor tonight.  Love you lots, dad!  Love, your little girl

Happy 67th birthday in Heaven, dad! Mom, Brandon, and I are going to have dinner together tomorrow in your honor. Aunt Jody, Aunt Loretta, and Grandma celebrated your birthday over a delicious homemade meal tonight in Black Canyon City, your old snowbird stomping grounds. No coronavirus worries for you up there thankfully! I think of you often and love you always! ? Love, your little girl

Happy heavenly 68th birthday, dad!  I hope you're celebrating with all your heavenly family and friends with great brews, food, sports, music, laughter (and no COVID or masks)!  I just turned 40 this year (I'm catching up with you...lol) and wish you could've been there.  It has been almost 4 years now since you passed and I still miss you dearly each and every day.  Love you always, your baby girl

Today marks 4 years since your passing, dad.  Though my heart still hurts that you're no longer physically around, I find some comfort in happy memories of when you were.  I hope you're looking down on me and smiling.  Love you always, your little girl

Always in my thoughts Dad. Love you.

Happy 69th birthday in Heaven, dad!  I'll have the family raise a glass and say a prayer in memory of you during the McClain's belated St. Patrick Day gathering this afternoon.  Love you always, your little girl

Dad,
It's been 5 years since you entered Heaven and the family and I still miss you so much!  I hope you and the rest of our heavenly family were able to warmly welcome Aunt Loretta on June 23rd when she passed on to Heaven.  Cancer sucks!  I just want you to know that I love you always and think of you often.  Hugs, your baby girl

Happy 70th birthday, dad!  I'm feeling under the weather today, but when I'm all better I'll gather the crew to go to Spaghetti Factory and celebrate your memory!  I hope you're enjoying a cold drink, good food, and awesome company up in Heaven!  Miss you and love you always!  - your baby girl

Happy 70th birthday in heaven, Dad. I wish you were here to celebrate with us, but I know you’re watching over us from above. You taught me so much about life, love, and family, and I’m forever grateful for your wisdom and guidance. I love you and miss you every day.

Today marks 6 years since your passing, dad.  I sure do miss fun times that I spent with you like: having family BBQs, listening to live music, going for breakfast, checking out classic car shows, etc.  I love you a lot and pray that when you look down on me you are always proud.  Hugs, your "little girl"

Happy 71st birthday up in Heaven, dad!  I miss you and will always hold you in my heart.  I am sending a little extra love up to you today, so hope you feel it!  I've been dealing with a bad virus for over a month now.  Thankfully you don't ever have to deal with sickness or pain in Heaven.  I'm glad you're at peace and pain free! Love always, your little girl

As of this morning, it's been 7 years since you entered Heaven.  I miss you and wish we could go to more breakfasts, live music events, camping trips, etc.  You loved food and fun, just like me!  Thank you for watching out for me from above.
Love you always,
Your little girl

Happy 72nd birthday in Heaven, dad!  Today was a rough day, but keeping thoughts of you in my head and love for you in my heart made it more bearable.  I hope you were able to have a wonderful celebration up there with our Heavenly family.  Love you lots, always & forever!  Sincerely, your little girl

It's been 8 years since you entered Heaven, dad. Thinking back...4 of the things I have missed doing most with you in the summer are going to Happy Hours & listening to live music, attending classic car shows, camping/RVing, and enjoying delicious meals (esp. breakfasts and your BBQ). We had lots of great times during our 36 yrs together and for that I am thankful. Love, your little girl

Happy 73rd Birthday in Heaven, dad! I think about you often. It still hurts that you had to depart so soon, but I'm appreciative of the good times we shared. Life has been pretty challenging for me these past 5-6 years. If you are able, will you please watch over me from Heaven? I really need better days ahead. Wishing I could celebrate with you today. Love you always, your little girl

9 years ago (at right about this time) your spirit entered God's Heavenly Kingdom. Mom, Brandon, and I are thankful we were able to be there to comfort you as you crossed over. I'm grateful for the 37 birthdays (my birth + 36 more) I shared with you. You're always in my mind & heart. Love you forever dad! Sincerely, your little girl
