Happy Birthday Dad

Today would have been my Father's 73rd birthday. In a few weeks it will be six years since he went home to be with Jesus. But my Mom, David and I celebrated his life today.

I wonder sometimes why he died so young. How would our lives be different if he had lived? Would Jay have made some of the decsions he has? Would David have developed his writing skills?

We would not have gone to Alaska - Dad hated being cold. Perhaps we would have made it to Hawaii. We would have had more family times to hold close to our hearts.

Now, we have the pictures and the memories of an incredible Dad and an amazing Grandpa.

Happy Birthday Dad. I love you.
