Michelle A Cooper says:
Dad I don’t know what life is going to be like without you in it, and I’m scared because you were everything to me and kids everyday, but I know I have to trust in God and I will see you again.. there are no words to describe how wonderful you are and if there is anyone that can prove life isn’t about how long your here, but what you leave behind when your gone it’s you! There is no one that comes close to you.. I thank God for everyday we did get with you.. I want to be selfish and have you back but looks like your needed elsewhere right now and I must trust that.. thank you for being everything to us and thank you Lord for blessing us with one of the truly amazing beyond amazing people I will ever love and be loved by.. God bless you Dad.. I refuse to say goodbye so ta-ta for now mate!!. I love you so so much.. XOXO
