Dear Dad,

I missed you in my life. I was only 11 years old when you died, but I have felt the loss in my heart ever since. I think of you so often. I find myself talking to you when I need help.

I have a son now, Dustin James Furr, he is 14 years old now. I have a picture of you and me hanging on my wall. Dustin knows all about you. John and Bill miss you so very much also. We are all grown up now, but we still feel the loss.

As soon as I can I will bring a picture of all of us to the Wall in Washington. We have been to the traveling Wall, and it was so touching for us. You have another grandson, Jeffrey Furr.

I am trying to find people who knew you, so maybe they can help me know you. I put off putting this memorial for you because I didn't know what to say. I will be back with more. I just wanted you and everyone else to know how much you are loved and missed by

your daughter, Kim;
your two sons, John and Bill;
and your two grandsons, Dustin and Jeffrey.

All our love to you forever, see you in Heaven.

Dear brother,

How proud I am of you, I miss you so much, I think of you often, I wish life could have been different for you. I know how much you loved your three children. It's a shame that you missed seeing them grow up. Now you have two grandsons and I know that you would be proud of them.

I have been trying to contact your children for years with no luck.
