Letter to Daddy from Emily:

Poem written by sisters, Becky and Brenda
Our Brother, Our Friend
We are so sad you're gone,
things will not be the same,
This just does not seem real,
And who is there to blame?
Do not question God, that's what they say,
But who can explain why they took our little brother away?
We will miss you so much, the memories will live in our hearts.
Such a good person, a caring man, a son, a little brother, and a great friend.
You are in a much better place now, all your illness has gone away,
But remember we will meet again in Heaven some day.
