Dear Dad,I've been thinking about what to do for father's day so I deiced to write you this letter. I miss you and love so much. I miss your warm hugs you used to give me. Then there was that great laugh of yours, a tremendous love for your horses, love of food, cooking and cooking shows, your great smile, watching old westerns on TNT, barbecues in the front yard. I can still see you in your recliner with Reggie on your lap, both of you still sound a sleep. How can I forget the jokes you would tell that would make me laugh so hard just to here you laughing at your own joke. Remember all your project cars in the driveway? All your food "creations", worn out construction pants with drywall mud all over them, the way you looked after getting a load of sawdust. It's in your hair, on the top of your nose and cheeks. Then there was the strong moral man that you were. With an incredible talent for getting any horse to jump on a lunge line, while at the same time being the best Grandpa; a man devoted to his family. Thank you for all the wonderful memories that you have given me and the amazing family to share them with...
Your loving daughter,
Ann
