my dearest darling i still can't believe that you're gone. i'm so angry with god for taking you away from the people that love you the most. but at least i can say that i know you're not in pain anymore and that you're up there dancing around with your parents and brothers, and your sister. i cry everyday for you i just lie here with the shirt you had on that day that you left.. i love you so much and i will love you till the day that i draw my last breath

daddy i will never forget you. you did what most men would never do. you took a little girl and called her "my daughter". you were always there when i needed you and taught me right from wrong, made me laugh when i wanted to cry, i pray that you can see now how much love i have for you. you told me once that you thought you had failed me as a father well i told you before and i'll tell you again no one could of asked for a more wonderful father. my heart aches for you to be here a part of my life, but i know that you won't be suffering any more and that god is taking good care of you. please watch over me and guide me in my decisions like you always have. you never told me what i wanted to hear, you told me what i needed to hear. any man can conceive a baby, but it takes a real man to be a father to it, especially when you didn't have to be. you will always be my father. my "pop" loving you and missing you till the last breath i take in this life. your daughter
