Sometimes it’s difficult to express your thoughts, so a jar of short reminders in mini envelopes will help do just that. Moms, these would be fun if they were sent on behalf of your little kids!

The day you died
Our hearts split into
One side was filled
with memories
the other died with you.
We often lay wake at night
When the world
is fast asleep,
And take a walk down
Memory Lane
With tears upon
our Cheeks.
Remembering you is easy,
we do it everyday
But missing you is a
Heartache
That never goes away.
We hold you tightly within ,
our hearts
And there you will remain
Life has gone on without you
But it will never
be the same!
In memory of “My Dad” George King-he passed September 11th, 2006
Beautifully composed. Your Father must be proud of his daughters right now. Thank you for sharing it.
A Dad is a best friend God gave you.
A Daddy is the first man a little girl falls in love with.
I always feel safe with Daddy’s arms around me.
Father is another word for hero.
A Father’s Love is Forever.
Dad, when I feel a breeze, it reminds me of the wings you gave me.
I appreciate your bravery in serving our country.
What a handyman you are.
Anyone can be a father, you are a dad.
Thanks for helping me believe in myself!
Because of you, I am a kinder and gentler person.
In the music of my life, you are a symphony.
Thanks for so many happy memories.
Cindi
Enjoy your special day, no one deserves it more…I love you! Happy Father’s Day!
Dad, I am me, not because you said I love you–because you showed it.
Anyone can say I love you, but your time is the biggest gift of all.
Time with you, dad, is time well spent on learning to be just like you!
Dad, your patience, persistence and dedication demonstrate what it takes to be a loving father.
Dad, I love and miss you always…you will always be a part of me.
You’re a dad to me, and I am so thankful you are in my life.
Dear Dad, our family is never complete without you!
