I miss you more than anything. I had you for a lot of years but
it just didn't seem long enough. I am a little selfish. I know
you are at peace now with no pain and suffering and flying high
with the angels and looking down on us. I have lots of good
memories of you and I am so glad I got the opportunity to take
care of you I wouldn't change that for anything. Even though you
always said we were a pain in your ass! I thought I had to let
go of you and move on but a good friend told me I didn't have to
that I just have to hold you close to my heart and carry you
with me forever. I miss seeing your smiling face and
your laugh I will see you again someday my dear daddy. I will
always love you forever and a day.
Love Stephanie
Dear Della & Family, Sending you my deepest Sympathy, Frank was one of my favorite uncles . He will be sadly missed Love, Jeanette & Duane Donahue
Dear Aunt Della & Family,
We are so very sorry to hear about Uncle Frank's passing!! Our
hearts go out to you especially during this most difficult time. I
wish we could be there to support you in any way we can just like
you did for us Della when my dad passed away in June of 2001. It was
so nice to see you here...Just wish we could do the same for you!!!
With so many miles between us makes so hard to get away. Mom said
she always liked Frank and that he was a good man!! I remember a
little bit of him from when I was a kid. I spent the day with my Mom
today and she took out some old photo albums and her and I found
your wedding photos in her album. We sat and she reminisced about
the good old days. I can tell Mom misses you guys very much! If she
could be there for you she would. Be strong tomorrow during the
funeral and know that he is in a good place with no more suffering.
Your kids are really gonna need you. Take care Della and when things
become more peaceful you'll have to call my Mom so you two can catch
up!! Take care and may God bless you all and Frank ALWAYS!!!
Love,
Lanette, Bernice, Brenda & family
