Dear Dad. I never was very good at saying goodbye but this is probably one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. I miss you a lot already and I'm sure it is only going to get harder as time passes. I always tried to spend as much time with you as possible and I will miss our golf outings at Silver Lake and our long interesting conversations. You always knew a lot about a lot of things and we could talk for hours. It is really hard for me to look at all these pictures and see your smiling face. I am happy you had a good life and rest knowing that you have many people that loved you. I always knew that one day I would lose my Dad, my golf buddy and my friend I just didn't think it would be so soon. I am not sure why you were taken so soon and I probably never will. I hope you are in a better place now and you don't have to suffer anymore. I miss you and love you and I hope to see you again someday. Love, Paul
