Dear father,
I have so many happy memories of our relationship over the years .Reviewing all the photos and memories of our family has brought back such beautiful memories. On balance in my view way more good than bad. I always respected you as my father. You and mom so young like all of us when you married, starting a young family and making good and bad decisions like everyone else starting out. In the end I say you and mom have done a wonderful job of staying committed and married in the midst of outside forces pressing our family. I love you, respect you and admire you. Regardless of areas where none of us measure up. Rest in peace Father. I will forever love and miss you.
William James Spearson
SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS, HE WILL BE MISSED,
Dad,
It’s hard to say goodbye, that’s why I didn’t at first. Our relationship was always kind of formal. I know you always did your best, and so did I.
Happy birthday in heaven Dad.
Say hello to Mom, Vickie, and everyone give them my love.
Love you Dad.
