Dear Dad,


It is official...I have followed in the foot steps of you and mom. I have "done Europe". Well, have gotten my feet wet anyways. You would be proud. Germany (Berlin, Frankfurt), France (like the locals), Switzerland (Geneva) and a bit of London. Mom loaned me her passport holder, remember the one? On the flight back I wanted so desperately to come home and share all my adventures with you only to realize that you would not be there. Then it occured to me...you were with me...right there in the sky next to me...we were flying high side by side. I closed my eyes and shared all my thoughts with you. I felt you smile. We made our plans to go back one day soon.

Lots of love,
Erica

He officially sets off on his camping journey...


On March 31, 2010 my father passed away with my mom and I by his side and the words of my daughter's day as the last melody to his ear. Those words brought what holds the eternal smile to his face.

I love you dad. I will think of you often and always. You are the wings with which I fly high every day of my life.
