Uncle Dave,
As I read these sweet tributes to you, I can't help but wish I had lived closer to you to enjoy your sense of humor, wisdom, & love that everyone shares memories of. We only saw each other a few times over the years & yet you touched me deeply. The 1st time I met you I was a young girl. You told me as I walked towards you, that you could see my mother when you

Grandpa you were always strong and always remember you saying 'Ain't nobody going to do anything for you, except you.' So we all have to be strong in tribute to grandpa. I will think about you everyday, see you everywhere i go, and never forget you in my life.
Love your dawg,

Grandpa,
You are loved by many, especially your family. I know we all miss you and you will be in my heart forever. I will always remember the jokester in you. Sometimes you had a mean streak but I didn’t mind because that made you the man we all loved. You were always helping family out with whatever they needed. Anytime I needed to talk you would be there to listen and give me advice.
Love,
Clayton

Dad,
You’ve never damned a man for what he believes and even though I’ve had a hard time losing you, you will always be in my heart and I will live by the advice you’ve given me in life. I will be strong for you and hope you can forgive me for being an a** to the brother I really love.
Love,
Your grouchy son Bob
