Whoever said it gets easier with time lied. We still feel the same way we did in December 2015.

You left way too soon dad. The smile you always had and your faith in our Lord encourages us daily. As much as we miss you we are encouraged to keep serving our faithful God.

Dad, we always think about you even though it pains. We would give anything to relive those precious memories again. Gone but never forgotten. May the Lord continue resting you in eternal peace.
