Dear Dad, I am so sorry we didn't get to say goodbye in person.  We were thinking about you, sending good thoughts and praying for you too. You would probably laugh at all the tears I shed because you always laughed when you were touched or uncomfortable. I hope you met your good friends and family and loved ones who passed before to help you on your journey.

Dear Walt,

You have moved to a different place, resting in the great hereafter.  You left us far too soon, but I am sure that wherever you are, you are you are surrounded by friends, family, and your beloved animals

Dear Uncle Walt -

Growing up, you were my earliest memory of genuine humor. I didn’t always understand the jokes but I always understood the joy I received in your stories and tones and I believe that some of my own humor I grew into was colored by you! Thank you for the laughter! Rest...

Dear beloved friend.  So many fun memories of all the camping trips, pool parties, and just great times, sometimes just the 4 of us, mostly with all the kids.
I hope you and Mack are up there fishing again, laughing and telling stupid jokes.  
I'll truly miss our occasional phone visits.  Rest in Peace.

This is a tribute to my Dad
I will miss our time together, wether it was bowling our Thursday dinners or just sitting out in the back yard having a cigar.
You were my dad and my friend.
I love and miss you.

Thanks Dad for everything you taught me growing up as well as all of the conversations we've shared over the years after I became an adult.  My grandchildren accuse me of telling "Dad" jokes all the time.  
I was taught by the master.  I love & miss you

I posted one of my favorite stories in the "Stories" section  

I've been thinking of you so much and can't believe you are not sitting in your favorite chair in your home in Idaho. Every time I make cookies I wish I could give you some--remember how you loved your milk and cookies? Miss you big guy.
