To my Hero,

I will never forget the times we shared together as a family and all of the things you have taught me. I promise to raise your grandchildren with the same love and respect that you gave to both Robert and I growing up. Also, I promise to make you proud... I love you Pop and I miss you so much. I know you are in a better place now and you are not suffering anymore. Save us a nice spot up there where there are lots of lilies and roses around next to a lake to water ski on!!! By the way, try not to drink all of the rum before we get there! Because I know now you are finally having a real drink that is not with just rum flavoring! LOL! Don't get mad at me! That was Mom's idea!! Ha Ha! Also, try to go easy on everybody up there with your golf game too! Don't beat Grampy, Grandpa Randall, and Skip too many times! Tell everyone up there I love them and miss them so much!

I love you Daddy! Semper Fi, forever! Ooh Rah!

Your loving daughter,
Andrea (Sis)
