    Uncle Gary, Do me a couple of favors please...find my dad,your brother,and give him a big hug and kiss for me and then tell him a good joke. Tell my sister, Bridget, that I love and miss her and last but not least find my first born grandson,Grayson. On bended knee/eye level tell him I'm proud of him and that I can't wait to put my arms around him. I know the sight of God must be overwhelming. I'm picturing you as I write this sitting with your dad, whom you last saw at 9 yrs old,your mom and my dad. I know your heart is full and ours is too. We just have to adjust to you being gone. Your girls have rallied around melissa. They will be fine. Loving you always, Kelly
