I love you dad
Sorry Tim, its always hard to lose a parent. Hope everyone is doing ok.
Love and Prayers, Betty
thinking about you guys
So sorry for the loss of your Dad Tim. Your family is in our prayers.
I love you and I miss you so much, grandpa. I’m sorry I wasn’t there more and maybe it’s better I wasn’t. I don’t think I could have handled seeing you in so much pain. Thank you for always being there for me and making me feel important and loved. I never had my dad around but you were always right there. Thank you for being the dad I never had. I wish I could have given you and grandma the world. I hope I didn’t make life too hard for you. I refuse to say goodbye because I have to believe I will see you again or I can’t survive this. I wish I could hug you just one more time. It kills me that I didn’t get to say what I wanted before you left us. I feel so guilty for not doing more. You deserved so much more than this life gave you but I know God is taking good care of you now and I can at least rest knowing you’re safe in his arms. Until we meet again….I love you so much!
Thing of you. i’ve been there from the begining and now it’s the end
