I can't begin to tell you how much I miss you. Mom and I went to the cemetery today and brought you new flowers and little trinkets {mom's doing, not mine :) }. While we were there we looked at pictures of you, reminicsed, and wrote you little notes.
I can't help but think what our lives would be like if you were still here with us. So much has happened over the past 2 and half years but there isn't a day that goes by that I dont feel you. You are a part of who I am... I know that I couldn't have made it to where I am in life without your help.
I know that the boys are so grateful for you're example. You were the best missionary and lived your entire life serving others as Christ would want us to do. They speak of you often and feel you're presence with them every day as they fulfil their callings as missionaries.
Mom misses you. It's just me and her in the house now and we have become closer than ever. She is the most compassionate, strong, and devoted mother. I see why you were crazy in love with her. She's pretty amazing! I'm so glad that you brought the gospel into her life and made our family eternal. How beautiful the day will be... I look forward to it.
Happy Father's Day Dad... I miss and love you so much.
Love,
your little girl.

Wow Ash 2 and 1/2 years already? That blows my mind. We're going on 5 this month, not sure how I feel about it....5 years sounds like such a long time to me, it doesn't seem like it's been that long. I loved this letter you are such a good daughter to both of those dads you have watching over you up above! I know they are so proud of you and so am I! love you, keep always being you!
Ash, I think your dad was so lucky to have you as his little girl. Really. you are such a sweet and amazing person. I'm sure he's so proud of you! And I'm with Hil, thank heavens for the gospel and families being together forever! Love ya!
