Bill,
We first met when you were 18 and I was 14. When I saw those blue eyes and dimples, it was all over for me. I knew you were the one. When we hugged you said we fit perfect together and I said, I know, we do. We always shared the greatest times filled with laughter and fun with all of our friends. The day you asked me to marry you and I said yes, it was the happiest day of my life. Oh god, Yes! The one I truly love was mine. We were a whole.
You were in the National Guards and a Yacht Captain, one of the best! I was always so proud of you and couldn’t wait till you got home from a fishing tournament.
We were blessed with two beautiful daughters, Susie and Marion. We were a family now. You have been the best husband and father and so supportive of our every needs.
All the neighborhood children couldn’t wait for you to get home from work everyday to come play sports with them. Our home was the gathering spot.
Years later we became proud grandparents of six adorable little ones; Michael, Christy, Heather (In loving memory),Susie Q, Stacey and Savannah. Each one was the most beautiful gift from god.
Family is and always will be our lives. There is no greater gift. The times shared; Christmas, Our family vacations, The beach, Cookouts, Hiking, Activities, Amusement parks, ATV riding, Camping were the best (Although I am not a camper).
Our family expanded and we became the proud great-grandparents of seven beautiful grandchildren; Katelin, Kendall, Carter, Tommy, Chase, Delilah and Lincoln.
We could never picture our lives without all of our family, as they are our lives.
We shared, 52 years, 4 months, 2 weeks and 2 days together, which I will cherish the rest of my life.
The day you left us, it broke all of our hearts and left us so devastated and empty. You left us your love, your heart, treasured memories and a life of love. The man who is my husband, the father of our two daughters, a grandfather and father figure to all six of our grandchildren, and, great-grandfather of seven.
Our lives will never be the same without you. Part of all of us went with you.
Our only peace is knowing god took you home and Heather was waiting for you. You have a celebration of a new life. You will always be free of pain, have peace, and stay as handsome as ever, and live a beautiful new life.
One day we will all be together again. When my time comes, I know you will be waiting for me. As our song goes, “Take my hand, Take my whole life too, For I can’t help falling in love with you”.
God bless you my love. We will always be together in our hearts and souls and a lifetime of memories!
I love you with all my heart.
Your loving wife,
Karen 💋
Daddy,
You gave us such an amazing life! We will keep those memories in our hearts forever. I think about all the fun times we’ve had together like playing baseball (remember Sue would hit the ball all the way down the street) and I could only hit the ball if you pitched it to me, playing soccer,fishing(remember when you put the fish eye in moms drink? That definitely wasn’t a good plan),going to the beach(lugging half the house to the sand), ATV riding (by the way, I agree with you, that Ranger was Ridiculous!),going to parties (we were the first ones to get there and the last ones to leave..lol) Our vacations were the best! You and mom took us everywhere..Skiing (I still can’t believe you got on the ski lift), White water rafting (I think you were the only one rowing) Snow mobiling(how much fun was that), Lake Tahoe (telling mom..SLOW DOWN)! So many laughs...Now you have grand children and great grandchildren. They have awesome memories too! The Keys, Dollywood, Tennessee, ATV riding in the mountains, camping and just being together. We know you are still having fun hanging out at the beach with Heather and Hunter(give me my shoe),Grandma’s homemade fudge (shh- don’t tell mom), and we know it’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere!Thank you for everything you have given me in my life. I miss and love you so much...
Karen. I am so sorry for your loss.. I know your heart is so heavy and I hope you know you and your family is in our thoughts and prayers... I know Heather was waiting on her papaw... for sure... sending hugs to you..
