They say there is a reason They say time will heal
But neither time nor reason will change the way we feel
For no one knows the heartache that lies behind our smile.
No one knows how many times we have broken down and cried.
We want to tell you something, so there won’t be any doubt; You’re so wonderful to think of but so hard to be without.
We cannot bring the days back, when we were all together, the family chain is broken now, but memories live forever.
Love You Pop! Derrick and Natalie

My Pop
Pop, I wish we could sit and talk once agaib like we used to. I miss you so much, the loss of you is so painful.
Pop, I will miss our talk we have every morning on the way to work.
The ride will not be the same without hearing your voice.
Pop, you taught me a meaning of a dollar. You were a hardworker, you love to paint, cut yards and repairing anything needed to be fixed.
Pop, even if you wasn’t feeling your best you still manage to still work sick and all.
Love You Pop, Derrick
Pop, I will always love you. I will never forget all the memories we shared together.
Love You, Deonte
