    Pops, where do I begin? You have been on my mind a lot lately. I look at all the pictures I have of you and reread all the comments people are saying about you. God I miss you like crazy. It's still unreal to me that you are gone. I hear songs that you used to sing on Karaoke and shed a few tears. God what I would do to hold your hand and kiss your cheek again. Just know I'm doing my best to keep mom and myself happy , but it's so hard to be happy when you're not here with us. It's like we feel guilty being happy, but we know you are no longer suffering and in pain. Rest now Pops, I got it from here . All I ask is you help guide me to the right paths along the way. I Love you & Miss you like crazy ! It hurts my heart ! Love your babygirl Jeanette (Jean-ette) the way you would say it to me.

    Junior my Dear Brother in law. I am saddened that you are no longer with us; however I know you are no long suffering. You are at peace. We lost Robert a little before you. I hope you are together with my Dad and all your Family that left us previously. You will be missed. That smile I will never forget. Watch over all of us, and when we are at the Casino... bless us and bring us luck. Forever in our hearts. We will never forget you. Your FAVORITE Sister in law..... Tina

    Pops, how do I summarize a lifetime of memories ? I can't. So I will say this; we will continue to live for you and you will continue to live on through us. We will remember you in everything we accomplish and do. You will be with us forever in our hearts. Love and miss you everyday. Love one of your girls, Monica (51/49)
