June 7th,  the day my daddy went to heaven.  I think about him all the time.  We had a lot of good times.   We laughed a lot and talk a lot about sports, politics, religion, our children, and he was always there to help me out and answer questions.  I miss being able to just pick up the phone to ask him stuff I don't know.  I know he's happy on the other side.  I know I will see him again in a little while.
                 
Now that I am gone,
Remember me with smiles and laughter.
When you need to cry,
Cry with you mother and sisters who walk in grief beside you.
When you need me,
Put your arms around someone and give to them what you need
give to me.
Look for me in the people I've known or helped in some special
way.
You love me most by letting your love reach out to our loved ones.
Love does not die--people do.
So when all that is left is love....
Give me away as best you can.
