Happy birthday, daddy! We all miss you and shall see you when it is our time to meet again! I love you!
Bill I can remember when we 1st meant 1sr starting dating in December of 1984.
I didn't have much of a Christmas for the children .
I had just gone through a lot of trauma in my life.
You offered your help.
Though we hadn't been seeing each other long.
You went and got the children all new coats ,shoes and an Atari for them.
This is when I started having feelings for you.
You were a gentleman and great man.
J will miss you dearly Honey.
I will always remember how you would call me from work or even Japan and tell me you just called to say you love 💘 me.
And the children.
I will always remember that the song by Stevie Wonder came out.
And that became our song.
I love and miss you now and always.
Has I have told the Children though they are adults now.
They remember the things you gave up.
So they could have new clothes tk start school. New shoes.
And most of all the love yiu gVe me and them.
