Dad,

It was a sad but a beautiful day for you. I got to say bye to you, we all did. The music was beautiful and so was the slide show. We kept it together for the most part. I cried and cried sad and happy tears but more so I’m gonna miss you tears. Papa Lolie and I both went up and did your eulogy. I read a piece from Miguelito who is gonna really miss you over. I did get emotional talking about Z and the beach and how I’m passing that along to him just the way you showed me. I did good and was happy that I wasn’t crying up there because I know you would have talked some shit about being a communications major and not being able to do a speech. I also helped Alice with some flowers that she wanted you to have. She’s gonna miss you over. When we put the flowers down Miguelito and I did it together as we walked away you can hear a train horn in the background. I didn’t notice it until Gabby showed me on video. You are with us and I am so thankful for it. You give us signs all the time and I love you for that over.

Gigi and Z,

Thank you for being my medicine during the last month. It’s been so hard for your daddy but the kisses,hugs and smiles help me. Gabby I thanked you yesterday and will continue to thank you for being my rock. I would be lost without you and that’s the truth. You’ve been with me for every accomplishment and sad moment in my adult life and I love you for that.

Life is good!
