He Left His Legacy In All Of Us
When we talk of daddy's legacy, We think of all the great things he did.
I feel daddy's legacy lives on today, It lives through the eyes of his children. When we do things as daddy taught us, or when we speak kind, and caring words to everyone, as he always did.
I think of Danny, and how he loved daddy, and all the things daddy taught him, I think of Teresa, Joy, Bill, Myself (Sherry), Benji, and Danny. How he loved us as his own, and the wonderful traits he taught us, How he taught us, You don't have to be the real father. As long as you are a real daddy, and he was.
Then he was blessed with Hollie and Kristie. And again, He was daddy. Even though we knew he was so proud of those 2 girls. He never left us out.
I think his legacy was shown by all the people that came to pay thier last respects to daddy. And when we were all in line to carry him to the grave that day. Cars were lined up as far as you could see. And I was so honored to have this wonderful person for my daddy.
I still see him, When I walk into the house, I see him in Diane, as she talks of thier times together, and how they loved each other for 30 years. I see him, in each of us. When we share funny stories of him. Or the times he showed his unconditional love for us, in some special way. Or when he talked of his family members with so much love, and was so proud of even our smallest accomplishments.
I think daddy's legacy will live on forever, through his family, and friends.
Daddy, what a wonderful legacy you have left behind for us to learn from, and most of all. We can cherish it forever. We are so proud to be your children. And we will carry your legacy with us forever.

My Talk with God...
I said,'God, I hurt'
And God said,'I know'
I said,'God, I cry a lot'
And God said,'That is why I gave you tears'
I said,'God I am so depressed'
And God said,'That is why I gave you sunshine'
I said,'God, life is so hard'
And God said,'That is why I gave you loved ones'
I said,'God my loved one died'
And God said,'So did mine'
I said,'God, it is such a loss'
And God said,'I saw mine nailed to a cross'
I said,'But your loved one lives'
And God said,'So does yours'
I said,'God where is he now?'
And God said,'Mine is on the right
and yours is in the light'
I said,'God, it hurts'
And God said,'I know'

DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP
DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP
I AM NOT THERE, I DO NOT SLEEP.
I AM A THOUSAND WINDS THAT BLOW;
I AM THE DIAMOND GLINTS ON SNOW.
I AM SUNLIGHT ON RIPENED GRAIN;
I AM THE GENTLE AUTUMN'S RAIN.
WHEN YOU AWAKEN IN THE MORNINGS HUSH
I AM THE SWIFT UPLIFTING RUSH
OF QUIET BIRDS IN CIRCLED FLIGHT.
I AM THE SOFT STAR THAT SHINES AT NIGHT.
DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND CRY.
I AM NOT THERE,
I DID NOT DIE.
