It is so hard to believe I said goodbye 3 years ago. I miss you as much today. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't miss you. I know you are still with me....I see the signs. I pray you, Karen and Mom are having a wonderful reunion. I love you my cranky pants!

Hello my cranky pants,
I haven't written in a while but I have a good reason :). I am moving HOME in five weeks. Scott has been busy doing a lot of remodeling and improvements inside. I think you would be happy with what I am doing (at least I hope you will be). I wish you were here to see the house and to spend time with me! I miss you still so very much. I don't know who said time heals - but they lied. I would give anything to hear your voice one more time! There are so many changes that have happened but they are all good. I know you are watching over me to make sure everything goes the way it should. I have the best guardian angel ever. I miss you!
Love you so very much,
Deb

Its hard to believe that two years ago today we went to Key West and had the time of our lives. I will always cherish the memories of your week with us during Christmas, 2013. We love you and miss you.

Hello my sweet friend....
Well, I am praying that you were at the gates to greet your mom this morning. Unfortunately we lost one amazing lady. I know she is no longer suffering and with you and Karen. It will be strange not going to visit her...I regret not seeing her more. I will be coming home for the weekend with your brothers to say good-bye to your mom.
I miss you so much. I think of you every day and more so today. I miss our talks and our laughs. You were such a big part of my life and I wish it could have been longer.
I love you,
Debby

Happy Birthday my sweet man. I miss you so very much. As I sit here this morning I think about a couple years ago when I brought your birthday balloon to you. You thought I had brought you a menorah. I took the same balloon to you last year with the boys. They all said you would come back to haunt me...I knew you wouldn't. Scott, Jerry and Richard are to take the same balloon to you today. They miss you as much as I do.
Things here are going great. I love my new job but miss being able to see you as much as I used to be able. I plan to go visit soon for a weekend.
Know there is not a day that passes that I don't think about you and miss you. I still feel like a part of my heart is missing. I know you and Karen will celebrate with Key Lime pie and Cream soda. Have one for me.
I love you my cranky pants and miss you dearly!!

One year ago this morning I received a phone call from Debby saying that you had passed away. In a way it seems like yesterday. I was at the Ramada Inn in Cordele, GA (Room 201). It was one of those moments in time that you'll never forget where you were when something tragic happened. We all miss you and think of you almost everyday. Its comforting to know that you are in a happier place. We love you very much and will continue to think of you often.

Hello my cranky pants,
I have to do this tonight because I know I can't tomorrow. It is hard to believe it has been one year since I had to say goodbye. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. So much has changed and oh I wish you were here. I was the luckiest person to be able to spend that time with you. Every day was an adventure. I think all the time about the hours we would spend just being together. The boys are doing okay as am I. I talked to Jeff today...we shared memories and laughs. But now as I sit here the tears flow for my friend that I miss so much. My heart knows you are with your beloved Karen and for that I am thankful but how I miss you. I keep wishing for one more day with you ... just to laugh or smile. I promise not to cry too much but know the tears are going to be there. I love you my cranky pants. I miss you more than words can say. Thank you for being one of the best friends and best part of my life.
I love you and miss you,
Deb

Hello my cranky pants,
It is hard to believe we are approaching 11 months since we said good bye. I miss you as much now as I did then. I miss seeing your face and our discussions...I think about you everyday even though I don't write all the time. I love my new job and am happy in Florida. You should be here but I know in your way you are.
I love and miss you....

Hello my cranky pants,
Happy New Year - although you aren't here. Christmas was strange this year without you being here but I survived. I spent a lot of time thinking about you. Thinking about last Christmas...how mad you got when I had you put on your Santa hat. <3 I was going to write Christmas Day but it was just too hard to think I had to tell you I love you this way. Things here are going really great and I am happy to an extent - you being here would make it perfect. I know you are at peace and with Karen so that helps. Just know how much I still miss you and love you! I am going to see Jeff and Cindy next week. I am sure there will be laughs and tears as we think of you.
I love you my cranky pants and miss you more than words can say!

Hello there my sweet friend,
I know it has been a while since I have written you but there is not a day that goes by that I don't think or talk about you! I am currently training in Florida for a new job I accepted but don't worry - the house is being taken care of. Jerry is doing an amazing job but oh, how he misses you. It is hard to believe it has been 9 months and 14 days - since I said good bye to my friend. I miss you - I miss our talks and teasing. I think about our trip to Florida since it was this time last year we had just gotten home. Knowing Christmas is in a couple days is so hard. I know you wouldn't want me to be sad but I am!! Oh how I wish I had one more day with you - just to tell you how much I love you!! I pray you and Karen are enjoying being reunited even though we miss you dearly. I love you MY cranky pants and MISS you!!

Hello my cranky pants,
5 months today and it seems like yesterday. I miss you as much as then. I try to laugh and think about all the fun we had but there are times it is just plain hard.
Things are going okay. I just wish you were here to talk too. I could use your advice. Casey is coming to see me today - she knows I still have trouble with the date. I am going back to Florida in a few weeks and will get to see Cindy and Jeff. Jeff still calls to check on me - and it like having part of you here.
I am going to visit you today after work but just wanted to write and say I MISS YOU so very much my cranky pants.
I love you,

Hello my cranky pants,
It has been a little over 4 months and oh, how I still miss you. I went to Florida for a few weeks and spent an evening with Jeff and Cindy. It was bittersweet because you were not there with us. I stop by and visit you as much as I can - but it still doesn't get easier. I love you so very much and miss you as much now as I have since you left. Smile down on me and let me know you are still with me.
I LOVE YOU MY CRANKY PANTS...

Hello my cranky pants....Oh how I miss you. I still can't believe you are gone. Things here are the usual - crazy. I am trying to finish up everything for you but I am almost afraid too. I wish things were different. There are times I just want to run away. I know - I know - I can't do that. I am planning to go to Florida the first part of August. I am going to see Jeff and Cindy while I am there but I think I just need a break from everyone and everything for a while. I just really wish you were here for one of our talks. You always put things in perspective for me. I try to go visit and talk to you as often as I can. It just isn't the same without you here. Casey comes to see me once a week and it helps but I still have trouble trying to explain how I feel. I can't express how I felt about you. I know you would want me to be happy and continue living - but I think part of me died that day. You were such a big part of my life. I know people didn't get it. I love you!

Hi my cranky pants,
Well tomorrow is 2 months since I was able to tell you I love you. Two months since I was able to hold your hand and talk to you. You know - they keep telling me it will get easier but when? My daily thoughts are of you and what we would be doing. I look around the house and there is always a memory that comes to mind. It still hurts so much that you aren't here with us. I know you are in a better place and with your beloved Karen but I am selfish and wanted so much more time with you. I know you will always be with me. You gave me so much love and so many memories in the year we spent together - not to mention the time we shared before that. I was so blessed you chose me to spend the last year with. I loved every second we had together...I just wish I had gotten more time with you. I miss you so much - I know you wouldn't want me to be sad and I do try not to be but I just miss you. Thank you for all the memories and everything you did for me. I did what I did for you because I loved you and I wanted you to be happy - and for NO other reason. I know I have my own guardian angel. I love you my cranky pants...and I miss you so much.... <3 <3 <3

Try as I might - I just could not make myself write to you on your birthday last week. I tried but I just couldn't. We took you balloons on Thursday and cried because we miss you so much. Everyday I look around the house and think how you should be there. My heart remains broken. I know you are happy and in a better place but I just wish I had gotten more time with you. There is not a time that you are not in my mind. The boys are doing okay - they miss you as much as I do - but they say "He is with Karen and healthy." I know that is true - but I miss my "cranky pants." I love you my dear Rick....and cherish every memory we made. I will write again soon...and please understand why I had to take a couple days before I could tell you "Happy 55th Birthday my sweet friend." I love you!! I miss you!!

Hi my cranky pants,
Well it has been six weeks and a day since I had to say good-bye to you. It hasn't gotten any easier but yet you still watch out for me and are taking care of me. You are my guardian angel...and I miss you so much. I have been and cleaned your headstone and we cleaned up the stray grass. I put some red, white and blue flowers (I couldn't find black for you :) )....I will keep looking. I was thinking about your birthday and I want to find the same balloon from last year. I was reading all your texts and you gave me so much heck for it....I want to find the same one. I love you my cranky pants and miss you more each day. Give Karen a hug for me and tell her to take care of you..... I LOVE YOU.

Hi there my cranky pants,
Well, it has been 8 days and I still am at a loss as to what to do with myself. Everyone keeps telling me that I have my life back - but I don't know how to do that yet. It is so strange coming home or leaving in the morning and you not being there with my smile. Your service was what I think you would have liked - and I followed your wishes and had the toast in your honor. I know you were there - I could feel your hand on my shoulder - and I know you laughed with my "pink drinks." I miss you my dear friend. Not a day goes by that I am not thinking about you. I hope you and Karen had a beautiful reunion and are having the dance of your life!! I love you my sweet friend and miss you more than I can say!!
