My father was a wonderful man. He loved life and he loved his family. He has 7 children and I am the youngest. My Dad was an alcoholic and this is what caused his death. He had liver cancer. He was in the hospital the last month and a half of his life. We could not get him on the telephone so I went to his apartment to check on him. I found his apartment door unlocked, which was odd. I walked in and he was laying on his bed unable to get up. He told me he was freezing. I helped him get into the bed and covered him up. I called my sister and she came down. We got my Dad up out of bed and put warm pajamas on him. He just wanted to sit in his recliner. So we let him. A few hours later we noticed he was dragging his foot when he walked and his left hand was closed tight. I pried open his hand so he could hold onto his walker. My sister and I knew he had a stroke. We called the ambulance and the Dr. told us he had a stroke. My father never got to go back to his home. I went to see him everyday. He went from one hospital to another. I went to see him one day and he thought he had died. I had to convince him he was alive. He talked to people that had passed on and I could not see them. But who's to say they weren't there? He told my sisters and I that he was going home on March 29th. He told me he wanted a tall cold glass of milk and fresh pineapple. Well on the evening on March 28th my sisters and I were there visiting him and he looked so tired. We kept telling him to go to sleep and he shook his head no. His eyes were so bloodshot. We decided to go and maybe he would get some rest. When we were kissing him and telling him we would see him tomorrow he started to cry. He mumbled some things and we didn't know what he was saying. All we understood was him saying I Love You. He was so tired. He was also worried about my oldest brother Eddie. Eddie had cancer all through his body. We never told my father but he knew his son was very ill. I believe our loved ones that had passed away told my dad that Eddie was sick. Somehow he knew. I started to cry when my Dad was crying. I told him I love him and he is in my heart always! The next morning my phone rang and woke me. It was the hospital telling me that my Dad had taken a turn for the worse. I called in my family and when we got to the hospital he was already gone. He knew if he went to sleep he would not wake up. He told us the night before that his mother was there waiting for him. We were not thinking of what day it was. If we would of realized that it was March 28th we would of never left. See my Dad did go home on March 29th just like he said. But he went home to God. I miss him so very much. He was so handsome & funny. Well we buried my dad. Then on August 2nd 2006 my brother Eddie passed away. My dad knew he had to go make a home for Eddie in Heaven. I know they are together and I will see them someday...when God calls me home. I hope this gives you a little comfort in knowing there is an after life and our loved ones are there waiting for us. Rest in Peace Daddy. I love you and miss you with all my heart.

Happy Birthday Daddy
Well it has been such a long lonely hard road to go down..but here I am for the 4th time wishing you Birthday Wishes without you. You know what is going on here and I know you are happy for me. I miss you so much Daddy! My heart is aching so much for you. You knew the exact day you were being called home...you told us. I was hoping and praying that God would hear my pleas and heal you. But God had other plans. He knew you had suffered a major stroke and your life would never be the same. You wouldn't be able to take losing your independance. So he called you home. I am so sorry the hospital called me too late and I wasn't there with you when you passed away. But today you would be 83 years young. Remember the Birthday Party all us kids had for you? You were so surprised. You were always cheated on your Birthday because Christmas is the day before. But we always remembered your Birthday. We all love and miss you so very much.The pain is just so hard to endure. I know one day you will come for me and I will be at peace. Until that day please watch over Murrell and help him see the light and quit drinking..He is walking in your shoes dad. I know you wouldn't want that! Please help him. I love you will all my being!
Your Baby!
4 years gone..
Dad you have been gone 4 years today. The pain in my heart is as strong today as it was that horrible morning! I know you are in Heaven and you are with me alot. I can feel your presence at times and I can smell you. I know you had to go and make a place for Eddie in Heaven. You knew he was going to join you not long after you passed. You knew you were gong to die On March 29th. You told us you were going home on Marh 29th. I only wished it was your apartment instead of heaven. I am so sorry I was not there holding your hand when you passed. I was called too late. But I know you were not alone when you went. I know Gram was there to lead you. I know I will be with you one day and it will be a glorious reunion in heaven. I long for that day! I will live the life GOD chose for me and when he calls me home I know you will be there to lead the way, I love you so much daddy and I miss you more everyday. Brenda, Mom and I talk about you just about every Sunday. We laugh and we cry. Oh the stories we have to share! Rest In Peace Dad!! You are always in my heart!! XOXOX

**********************************************************************
TEARS OF SADNESS FILLS MY EYES
AS I GAZE TOWARDS THE MIDNIGHT SKIES
I WONDER WHAT MY ANGEL IS DOING RIGHT NOW
IN HOPE THAT IT WILL EASE MY PAIN SOMEHOW
**********************************************************************
TO SHOW ME SOME KIND OF SIGN FROM HEAVEN ABOVE
THEN SEND IT DOWN TO ME WITH ALL THIER LOVE
MAYBE A WHITE FEATHER JUST FOR ME
OR A BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW SO THAT ALL CAN SEE
**********************************************************************
YOU COULD BE A STAR SHINING BRIGHTER THAN THE REST
WHEN YOU WENT TO HEAVEN I KNOW THAT THEY TOOK THE BEST
THE BEST THING IN LIFE THAT WAS MINE TO LOVE
WENT AWAY FAR TO SOON TO BE WTH EVERY ANGEL ABOVE......
