Dear Sweet Memories

Why is death so hard? 

Although you know it is a part of life

and you are so grateful for the time you do have

with your loved ones

It is still so very painful to let go

I will forever cherish

the dear sweet memories

of

My Sister, my very best friend

My NanNan, whom I dearly loved & respected

My Dad, I so wish that I could have told you Goodbye

and now,

My Father-in-law, who I am eternally grateful for accepting our ready made family as his own.

 

My Father-in-law raised 4 amazing children, 3 girls and 1 boy

He was married to their Mother for 55 years

 

I admired him so much for his commitment to marriage, 

not one of his children have ever been divorced

No one ever heard him curse, 

not once

He always wanted to make you feel special, 

like telling me I was his Favorite Daughter-in-law 

when we both knew that I was his only Daughter-in-law

 

My Husband & now my Children are strong men, 

loving & kind to their Mother, 

and devoted to their family

because of this Great Man

I wish that I could tell him one hundred million times 

Thank you 

Thank you for raising my Husband to be a great Dad

Thank you for never making a difference

Thank you for loving your wife

Thank you for loving me
