Be Thou At Peace

Happy 91st Birthday dad! This year marks 44 years since we lost you, I was also 44 when mom passed. I'm happy you and mom are together again though I miss you both terribly. I've always wondered where I would be had you not left me when you did. My love for you and mom with influence from my grandpa and grandma has allowed me to understand the importance of family. I thank you for that. All but 1 of my children are adults and I'm proud to continue the values you & mom instilled in me. I have & always will owe you both to be able to pass on to my children.
Your loving son,
Doug
