    “We’ll always remember
    that special smile,
    that caring heart,
    that warm embrace,
    you always gave us.
    You being there
    for Mom and us
    through good and bad times,
    no matter what.
    We’ll always remember
    you Dad because
    they’ll never be another one
    to replace you in our hearts,
    and the love we will always
    have for you.”

    Words from Addison and his great granddaughter

    “I will always remember your voice and heart.” “Loving, and caring finally at peace, remember my name when I see you again.” “I love your laughter, remember our names.”

    “Tell me what is it like up there in heaven?” “Are you happy and peaceful?” Are you more alive?” “So many questions I have what will be the first I ask when I see you again?” “You were a blessing to the family.”

    “I love you.”

    Yours truly Addison Norman
