Heaven gained an angel when my Poppop left this world. His love, kindness, and strength will live on in our hearts forever. Though we miss him deeply, I find comfort knowing he’s watching over us now. Poppop I miss you so much but I know your no longer in pain. I will forever cherish the memories of you and I’ll keep reminding myself what you have always told me “keep up the good work and never give up” an I will forever do my best for you. You were the best Poppop out there and forever will be. You were an amazing father as well to my dad and my aunt. Most importantly you were an amazing husband to my gramie. Poppop I will love you forever. Now you can be in heaven and drink all the beers you want. Although this is very hard on me an I feel very lost and broken I will continue to push through for you.

Dear Dad,
I’m not sure where to begin. It’s been a week, and I’m still lost for words and numb that you’re gone. But I’m going to do my best to write this tribute to you.
First, you were the best dad a girl could ever ask for. You were always there for me, no matter the situation. Thank you for teaching me how to mow the lawn, how to drive my first stick shift, and for introducing me to your love of “big business,” which led me to work at the bank for almost 13 years. There are so many more memories that I will cherish forever.
You were the best PopPop—not only to my children, but to all of your grandkids. Thank you for always supporting Ryan and Ashley in everything they did. Whether it was a school event or a sporting event, you and Mom were there whenever you could be. Thank you for taking Big John under your wing, loving him like one of your own, and showing him what family truly means.
Your love for your family is something I will always cherish and hold close to my heart. As I promised you, we will take care of Mom. She will be safe.
Dad, I miss you terribly, but I am at peace knowing you are no longer suffering. I hope you’re somewhere enjoying a nice, cold Coors Light.
Love you lots,
Your “Punky Rascal”

Dad, what can a son say to his hero? There's no one in this ENTIRE world I would trade you for. I can't remember a day that has gone by, that you weren't a part of. You made me the man I am and I can't say how much you have and always will mean to me.
Still can't believe you still had the personalized lighter I got for you so many years ago. It now has a home in my pocket every day. It's that little part of you I will have with me all the time.
Thank you, more than I could ever express for being the best dad any son could ever imagine having. I love you bub and will miss you so much more than you would imagine.

From our first Holcomb family Thanksgiving dinner together, where you welcomed me into your home and family, I have felt a part of the Holcomb clan...I will always remember the Sunday afternoons, after the yard work was finished, we would sit in the driveway and checkout the football games that week....We attended many Giants, Eagles games and one time we got invited to LT's, Lawrence Taylor's private club...I later started beekeeping and Gordon was a very enthusiast helper, jumping right into the hives...As we begun to have more time on our hands we would have breakfasts at local restaurants, coffee shops, and diners, everyone created a memorable time...I thank him for his kind heart, our time together was special to me, I never had a friendship like the one we had...RIP my friend my Father in law, my breakfast date...

Dad, I have written this message at least 6 times, and many more in my head. It is very hard to select the right words. You meant so much to us all and you will be missed every day.
You showed me what dedication and hard work meant. You would say, "remember Brenda, you have to be able to take care of yourself before you take care of anyone else." And I have shared those words with my daughter many times.
I have so many memories and fun times, especially when we went to Florida to visit Nana and PopPop. But that is just one of many many memories.
I am so happy you and JT had a great friendship and love for each other. He loved sharing his bees with you and was so proud that you liked spending time with him helping him manage those hives.
Thank you for loving Caitlin. She has many many fond memories spending time with you and mom. Especially every time she hears a fire whistle.
Dad, your life was a blessing and your love was a gift I will cherish forever.
We will miss you bunches!!
Love, Brenda

In his final days, my father-in-law and I were able to talk and express our love and gratitude for God bringing us together. It didn’t seem like simply saying “I love you” and “thank you” was enough, because what I felt was so much more.
He was more than a father-in-law to me—especially after losing my own father over 22 years ago. I made it a point to thank him for giving me the greatest gift I could ever receive: his blessing to marry his daughter. That gift led to my beautiful family and a lifetime of memories.
I truly feel blessed to have been a part of his life for over 33 of his 91 years. His loss is a difficult one for me, as it is for so many others who had the pleasure of knowing him. All I ask now is that he continues to look after his beautiful family… with a Coors Light in his hand.

Dad I don’t know where to begin and I have struggled on how to word and properly express how much you met to me. The memories I have from you teaching me how to ice skate, going to the bowling alley hanging at the bar. The gas station where I took the hose and sprayed you and mom. I remember hanging with you and your buddies in the garage when you were rebuilding a pickup truck. I know I wasn’t the easiest going through my teenage years, and there was a lot of tough love. But I understand more then ever now all the things you said. You have ALWAYS been there for me through the good and the bad. Dad you were and always will be the best DAD a son could ask for. I love you with all my heart and I miss you terribly . Things will never be the same without you.
Love you dad
