HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!!!
YOU ARE SOOOO MISSED
Walk a little slower Daddy" said a child so small,
"I'm following in your footsteps and I don't want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.
And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true,
So walk a little slower, Daddy,
For I must follow you."
He was a loving husband, father of 3 and the best papa in the world to his 9 grandchildren, who were his life. Life is so different without you now, you brought so much excitement to all of our lifes, and now it has been replaced with silence. Life goes on, and we all lose of our heart when you left.
If tears could build a stairway
If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say "goodbye"
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness,
And secret tears still flow,
What it meant to love you-
No one will ever know.
But now I know you want me
To morn for you no more;
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much more in store.
Since you will never be forgotten,
I pledge to you today-
A hollowed place in our hearts,
Is where you will always stay.
Across the years
I will walk with you
in deep, green forest;
and when our time
on earth is through
in heaven, too,
you will have
my hand.
DADDY'S LITTLE GIRLS
If I had my life to do over,
I'd have chosen you to be my dad once more.
Even if it meant losing you again,
It's worth all the tears in the word.
You were my sunshine when skies were gray.
I loved you and honored you;
You took all my tears away.
I was happy to be with you,
Proud to be your little girl.
