"Dad, I already miss you like crazy. I know you are with God and will be watching over us everyday. It is hard to believe you are gone and I will never be able to see you face again. I love and miss you so much and you will be in my heart forever. I couldn't have asked for a better dad and I was blessed to have you. I was daddy's little girl and that will never change. My heart is breaking but I know you are at peace now. Love and miss you every second of everyday."
