One year ago today, our family had to say goodbye to an amazing man, our Papa Egg. We love you and miss you SO much, Papa! Although you are not with us here on earth, we have faith and take comfort knowing you are in Heaven watching over all of us, especially mom (aka Grandma Good). Instead of being sad, we want to remember all the cherished moments we were privileged to share with Papa.
We remember with great fondness your smile, your infectious laugh, your crazy jokes & humor, your matter-of-fact attitude, your tasty meals and baked goods, your knowledge of trivia, your love of farming and the countryside, your love of reading, your impressive dancing skills, your amazing memory, your knowledge of politics and point-blank honesty about those "less informed and oblivious to reality" (aka Obama, liberals), your patience and respect for door-to-door salespeople :), and most importantly, your boundless love of your family and of God.
You were a father who really cared and took interest in our lives and showed us all the true meaning of hard work, honesty, integrity and the importance of developing and maintaining solid values and principles to guide our life.
We look forward to the day we are all reunited in Heaven; no health problems, no worries, no sadness - only overwhelming joy and peace. Until then, rest in peace and save a place for us. Lindsey, Taylor and Dylan are convinced you and Shaq are together waiting anxiously for our arrival :) The Best is yet to come, indeed!
