So sorry Elaine for your loss.
I love you Dad and I will miss you so much. Thank you for everything you taught me and helped me with thru out my life. When I think of you I think of strength, wisdom, laughter, caring and knowledge that you passed onto Alan, Rich and myself as tools to use in our own lives. I missed your call this Sunday at 10 am. In my mind I was still talking with you. You lived a good life with a great family, many friends and wonderful neighbors. We where all very blessed to have you in our lives. Rest in peace Dad.
All my love, Debbie
Dad it’s not the same, I miss your call at 11:00 o’clock in the morning, and when you would call me again at 4:30 in the afternoon. And you would tell me, what they said on MLB Network Radio, about what was going on the night before in Major League Baseball. And you will tell me, how come they don’t talk about are Chicago White Sox. I always looked forward to your phone call’s. I will miss going to Buona Beef with you on Friday’s . Then going down to the dugout as you called it.And watch are Chicago White Sox. I will miss watching all the Christmas movies, are favorite’ Christmas Vacation and The Christmas Story. And Saturday after 5 o’clock Mass, we would watch, Svengoolie. You always said, we had fun together, no matter what we did. I loved when we would just talk. Love you Dad, My life will never be the same.
I will think of you when the wind blows and the sun shines on my face. When the rain falls and snow flakes find their place. I see you in everything but your not here. I feel your presence with no fear. I know your watching. I know your missed. I know your loved. I know all this.
I will treasure the time I / we spent together. Elizabeth wilson
