Condolence: My beloved husband, the holidays are nearing and the hurt is so strong. Life will never be the same without you. I will try to stay strong for the family. I keep telling myself that you are in a better place free of pain. I hope you are looking down on us and enjoying your holidays with your brother and sister. Loved you yesterday, love you today, will forever love you.

Condolence: As I sit here typing this message to you with tears flowing from my eyes and heart I want all to know you are the best dad a son could ever have! It still feels like a bad dream that I'm waiting to wake up from. As much as it hurts not be able to see you again, talk to you, ask your opinion on things or just calling you on a Sunday afternoon after the Jets played to talk about the game, I know you're in a better place now. All the pain you've gone through for so many years has stopped. As you once told me, "You miss your brother so much," now you and uncle Sonny are together again, pain free and happy again. Dad, I'm sorry I wasn't always able to be as strong as you wanted me to be; especially when things didn't go as I wanted them to go with my health, but it was the only way I know to deal with things. Thank you for being you; I miss you so much and cant wait to be with you again... I wont say goodbye, but I will say see you later!
