Hey Gramps, I head back to Colorado tomorrow to spend some time with the family. I'm excited to be home but saddened that another year has passed without you here. I fly into Denver so that Dad and I can stop by your grave. It's so hard. The feeling of missing you never goes away. I used to love coming home unannounced just to surprise you and Grandma. You both acted so shocked that I was home. You would always tell me how crazy I am to be traveling so much but you always asked about the details. I know you loved hearing about my shenanigans. I'm so excited to see all the babies (some not so little anymore), I will surely hug and kiss each one for you. Until tomorrow... no monkey shine.

Its raining here in Salt Lake City and it sounds so beautiful. It reminds me of you Gramps. I loved when you'd bundle me up in a sleeping bag with a fresh cucumber/tomato salad from our garden and give me a push on the porch swing so I could enjoy the rain. You'd say, "perfect weather for a nap" but we never napped just sat quietly and listened... Like I'm doing now. I love and miss you to the extent there are no words. Thanks for helping to raise me, I'm a lucky girl.

Gramps, I sat at Sea World TX yesterday looking at the Christmas lights and sobbed. I loved the white wooden star you put up every year at the Dale st. house. Now every big christmas bulb i see feminds me of you. The cold air on my cheeks made my tears feel like ice. I thought about many of our adventures and seriously laughed out loud when I thought about our fishing trips. Remember the one to Skagway Reservoir with only Twinkies in our cooler for lunch. No picnic will ever compare. I miss you more today then I did 2 years ago which seems totally impossible. I'm headed to see your Son later today. I'll give him a big ol' hug for you! Love, "Jandy"

Hey Dad just wanted to say we(Eric,Deb,Murl,Brenda,Jay) made a Memorial Run on your behalf this year and to say Belated Happy Fathers Day. This was a very hard day to not have you here with us all. I miss you so much think of you all the time. I love you so much miss you even more. Happy Aniversary on the 20th Dad. I remember when you would take Mom to the store give her a card to read and she would you, then you both put them back. You were always so funny, we never knew what to expect. I miss those days so much. BBQ and family get togethers are not the same without you. Dad we have a new baby in the family Bently was born today Heather's baby. I LOVE YOU and MISS YOU VERY BADLY. Lot of questions still not answered on what happened. Maybe when we see you again you can explain. Take care MY LOVE TO YOU FOREVER.

I really miss you grandpa. I have been putting this off because it is hard and I still can't believe your not here. I find comfort knowing that you are happy, healthy and at piece with the Lord. You will greatly be missed and I will hold you close in my heart until we meet again. I am so thankful that I was blessed with such an amazing and loving grandpa. Shine in Heaven as you did here on earth. Watch over each and everyone of us and help guide us on our journey to Heaven. Love you, Sharron (granddaughter)

You will always be with me, when I see a Flag flying and the times you replaced mine and taught me how to fold it the correct way. The many times you fixed my tangled line on my fishing pole as the lure was caught on moss or sticks and you just shook your head like not again, I'll never back my truck up without thinking of you as you always told me to watch backing out and don't hit something, I'd rub your head tell you I loved you and went on home. Dad you will always be in my Heart and on my Mind. I am very grateful to be your Daughter, Dixie

Lavada and Family There isn't any words to tell you how much love I had for Jim. He was a second father to me growing up. I do not have many memories as a child growing up with out him and you Lavada in them. One of the biggest is him walking me down the Ile when I got married to Tom at the age of 16, for my dad would not step foot in a church. And holding me and told me it's ok to cry and not to be strong when my Dad passed away. Again on mine and Bobs wedding day when he told me that I had finally found the love of my life.And again being there for my Mom until she left this world. He always seamed to be there for me when all of us kids was growing up. Jim was one of my familys greatest friends. You all have been. I know he is in haven sitting there with my Mom and Dad tell even more fishing stories. My love and prayers are with you all. Lots of Love

Papa, this past week has been a ruff one as will so many more weeks to come. Thank you for always being there for me, thank you for seeing me off to school and welcoming me home with your arms open wide. Thank you for always making sure I was taken care of. I am truly one lucky girl to have such a kind, loving, and smart man in my life, thank you for being the best papa a girl could have. Thank you for stepping up and giving me the male role model I needed as a little girl. Whenever I needed you, you were always there and no matter what I did, you never stopped loving me. All the days, weeks, months, and years have been wonderful because you always showed me you cared. I know you are watching over me and guiding me through, but it just doesnt help because papa I miss you and love you so much. This is not good bye but see you later. Love Always Snowlynn Stelter

Lavada & family, I was only 8 or 9 when Jim first joined the Army and left home so I really didn't get to know him very well except for when he came home on leave. After you settled in Co. and came home every summer, I became better acquainted with him. I'll always remember his wry humor and his laid back look at life. He will always be missed by all of us. Love, Ed & Idabell

When I think of my Uncle Jim I always get a smile on my face. I hear him calling - actually singing my name when he saw me, "Maarrryyyy" knowing full well I was Terri. I remember him telling us crazy stories like how he got that scar on his chin from a rattle snake bite while he was in a mummy sleeping bag and couldn't protect himself. What a wonderful, loving man. He will truly be missed! My love to you Aunt Lavada and the family. I'll keep you in my prayers.

I learned so much from you and you were a huge inspiration in my life. I will always have a void in my life with out you but I will always have a huge part of you in my heart. I love you Dad and I will miss our time we had I would never change that for a moment..Until our rainbows meet again behave your self and always remember I love you!XOXOXOXO Heaven sure got a AWESOME Hero! my HERO
