Dad While the sting fades, The pain never leaves. I miss you so very much. Meadow is getting so big, I am so happy you got to meet her and Love her. She still talks about you all the time. Weather is turning again and the fish are biting, Meadow still has the fishing hat you bought for her and she will not go with out it. April is doing good enjoying staying home and taking care of the family. I will see you soon Dad save me a seat at the card game. love your son Benjamin

Hi Dad, We are missing you today, as we missed you yesterday and the day before. You are never far from our minds. Everytime I walk into the garden I wish you were here to see it. I know you would love our garden and the chickens and especially the turkey birds. I remember how you used to talk to your turkeys. I think you would like the tipi we made for meadow to play in. We planted pole beans on it so she could hide inside. Every night after prayers, Meadow still says, "love you Papa". A few weeks ago Beaudog came to live with you and a day later Auzzi came too. You must've been so suprised to see them both only a day apart. Please take care of eachother. I can still hear your voice in my head calling me twinkle toes. I hope that never goes away. I hear your laugh in Ben's laugh. Ben and Steve both have your eyes and many of your mannerisms and I see you in them so much. I'm sure Scheri does too. We miss you sooooo much. Thanks for all the snow! Love, Benjamin, April and Meadow Raine

Hey grandpa, man two years are coming up quick. I still cannot believe it has been that long since I have seen you and heard your sweet voice. I cannot believe that I have graduated, finished my first year of college, and got engaed all in this past year. I know that you are here right next to me and you are seeing it and living through dad and uncle. Man I miss you so much I am still so angry sometimes I just wish you were still here. I love you so much grandpa and thank you so much for all of your blessings!

Hey gramps well the holidays are just around the corner and I just cant believe once again another year with out you... There are so many things happeneing I wish you could see. Well dad was finally granted the dun buggy, well we hope anyways, thats all he has ever wanted and uncle B and aunt April are doing great in Kansas. Things are looking great in my future and I am praying youll be there every step of the way. I know you will... I love you soooo much gramps and I just wish I could hear your voice and hug you again... Have a great day hey play with that remote again and give Barstow some snow for Christmas. Love you

Hi Dad,just sitting here thinking about you, I laugh I cry,and im still angry.I just realized its been a whole year since iv gotten a hug or a phone call,,at this point in my life id go for either one of those rite now Dad.I set and thought about what happened a year ago today,,and I got to tell you, nothing has changed, that sick feeling in my gut is still there. I dont think theres a day that goes by that I dont have a lengthy conversation with you,sometimes it makes me feel better other days I just wanna crawl back in bed and do nothing. I know thats not what you want but sometimes you cant help it.I think about all the stuff you did with everyone throughout your life and ours,theres times I feel silly when someone says a certain date or year and I think to myself,ya i remember that year I still had my Dad.Im sorry Dad for alot of things that iv done in my life that didnt make you to happy,and im bettering myself now,I know its a little to late but I know your watching and your proud of me,just thought I needed to tell you that and get it off my chest,,, Well Dad I miss you and I know someday ill see you again,,,I love you Dad,,, Dianna

Hey grandpa, wow so its one year today and I just dont know what to think. I just want to get a hug from you so bad and give you a big kiss. I cant believe how fast it has gone this past year. I know you have been with me through everyhting even my graduation. Man I miss you so much gramps. I love you!!

Sorry I didnt get the chance to write a happy fathers day thing for you dad,, but you probably knew I was cussing my computer cause I couldnt get into this site for awhile,,, well anyways Dad happy belated Fathers day I know yu were probably off fishing with the Angels,,,, I love you Dad and I miss you ssssssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooo much,,, Dianna

Hey grandpa I just wanted to stop by and say hi and I miss you sooo much...I really wish I could see you right now and give you a great bug hug and kiss...I love you and know your in a better place. Hahaha now gramps you gotta stop messing with the controllers and give us such bad weather its supposed to be spring not cold and windy. I love you gramps muah!!!

Wow I cannot believe how long it has been grandpa.... I miss you greatly, there is not a day that goes by that I dont think about you. My big 18th birthday just passed and it was a good day, but really lonely knowing I wasnt getting a phone call from you. Now graduation is quickly approaching and to think that you will not be in the stands watching me is hard, but I do know that you will be right beside me walking across the stage. I miss you so much grandpa and I cant believe you are no longer here. There is no pain describing losing you. Im so thankful for my dad and uncle and them being just like you hahaha I dont think life would be the same without some nasty Cunningham comments....I love you and miss you greatly Stephanie

Well Dad its been 7 long months and it still sometimes feels like you just passed yesterday. So many things have happened since you left us some good,some bad.But one thing is for sure I know your still here with us pushing each of us to everyday to be the best person we can strive to be. All the kids are getting so big Steph will graduate soon, and I cant believe it seems like the other day I was babysitting her and feeding her m&ms, Dakotas been working odd jobs and making more money then me, he had a strings concert last night and wore a suit and tie and reminded me so much of you, Tiffanys doing good in school, well she slacks a little but then she is reminded that she did promise you she would try her best and she does, Dylans into girls and I can tell where he gets his thoughts from, Meadow is quite the talker and knows what she wants and im pretty sure that you had a hand in that too dad.They all have a piece of you in them, I know as you sit up there on that platnum cloud and watch over us your proud of them watching them all grow into young men and women,carrying on your legacy.Well anyways I better wrap this up,I miss you sssssssooooo much dad and We all love you ,,,,,,,,,,Dianna

We miss you Dad. It feels like you are here sometimes though. We think that you come to visit and Meadow can see you when you come because we catch her talking to you alone in her room. Every night at bedtime right after Meadow says her prayers, she looks up at the vent in her ceiling and says "love you papa". Still lots of tears at our house as we miss you terribly. We know that you are up there fishing with Jesus but we miss you here. We love you Dad. Love & Light, Benjamin, April & Meadow Raine
