My father was taken awsy from hiz family longbefore heshould have beem. All 5 of the children he left behind remember him with lots of love. Even myself who was just a yr old miss him mote than i can put into words. I bever had a chance to make memories of myown with my dad. All i have from him is what i have been told about him. I was lucky enough to be able to get yo lnow my aunt his sister who gave me my girst picture of him and reassured me that i had many qualities that i had inherited from him. Such as my sense of family and how i want my family to be united and to always be there for each other. All od my sisters and my brother have their own memories of him butl i never got that chance which is why i am always left feelibg so alone even with people around me. If i could ask God to grant me jyst one wish it would be that i could spend even a few hours with him zo that i could hVe my owm memory of him to treasure with all my heart. Here we are 52 yeats later and i am still missing him and i crave tgat daddy figure in my life.

Dad another year has passed by and I still miss you more than ever. I long to have memories of my own that have not been handed down to me through other people. But in my heart I know that this will be er be because you were taken away so very soon. You too lost out on watching me your youngest grow up and missed out on being able to meet all your grandchildren and great grandchildren. Just with my you have 6 grandkids and 5 great grandkids. I would love to be able to share memories with my kids about you. But I can only tell them stories that your sister shared with me. But she too has been called back home so she is with you now as are all of your brothers. Once again I love you dad so very much.

Daddy, you were taken from us way too soon and even though I had a hard life not even having one memory of you until I was a mother myself. I can now see where I got my strong sense of family from. My Tia has given me many beautiful memories of you along with my sister so now I can honestly feel as though I know who my father was. I love and miss you with all my heart but know that one day we will see each other once again. Then i will be able to hug you and shower you with all the attention that i feel you missed out on.
