Dad,
I completed my first of many triathlons today. My goal is to someday compete in Iron Man Kona in your honor.
Love your son,
John
You are on my mind, and I hope you are in a better place. Oh, and you would be very happy that our Seattle Seahawk's won the superbowl. I remember those day's watching football with you when John Elway was playing us in the kingdome.

Thinking of you and the loved ones you are with now.
Dad,
I will miss you more than you could ever imagine. You have ingrained into my soul the love of fishing and the outdoors. Every time I make a cast, shoot at rifle, or pick up a wrench my memories of us working together will never fade. I will miss your loud laugh. I will miss how you joked around with George Gonzales when we were fishing at Steilacoom Lake.
I hope someday to go fishing with you again.
Love your son,
John
While I didn't get to see you often during your time here, every chance we had together created a memory and let me learn a little bit more about you. You were the reason why I wanted to learn more about Psychology and how to understand human behaviors and emotions. I'll be reminded of you whenever I see a bottle of Coca-Cola, watch a child play Patty Cake or hear the theme song to Two and a Half Men.
I miss you Grandpa, and I hope you're in a better place now.
We had many talks about love, life, cars, guns and TV shows you brought a smile to my face with every conversation. I will be forever be in debt to you for bringing your wonderful family into this world. I will miss you my friend please keep an eye on the rest of the family until we get together again! I will always remember.
Thank you George,
John Wacker
We’ll Always Love You, Dad!
Each day you strived to live,
Your body too weak to be.
Your love will live forever,
Since your heart has set you free.
Now you walk so bravely,
You feel the pain no more.
Angel’s have come to guide you
And bring you to Heaven’s door.
Memories we’ll hold so dearly,
Your smile, warmed our hearts.
And through our lives you’ll live,
You’ve touched so many parts.
Hard days maybe before us,
It’s all a part of God’s plan.
Why you left so soon,
We may never understand.
You’ll be alone no longer,
And would tell us, “Don’t be sad”.
Please know you were no burden,
We’ll always love you, dad!
Our lives have changed forever,
since you’ve passed away.
In heaven you’ll be waiting
