Dad, there will never be enough words to express the emptiness my heart is feeling. I am so truly blessed to have had you as my dad, my first love,my mentor and my best friend. I was blessed to have all these relationships with one remarkable man. Although we carried the same stubborn trait we always ended with I love you. I feel there was the one thing you knew for sure was how much I loved you, as well as how much you loved me!!!! I will truly miss our Friday football games watching Garrett perform, our daddy daughter lunch date at Lubys eating our liver and onions. There was so much more I wanted to share with you, but so blessed to have been able to have had the wonderful relationship and time we had. I love you today and forever!!! Look over me and my family and give me your guidance that I fulfill all your wishes . Until we meet again forever your baby girl.
To the friends and family of Tracy Sharp…I came across a scripture found in God’s word the Bible in the book of Acts 24:15 which reads: And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous. I hope this scripture brings you comfort and know that this is a promise that God gives us for the future. My condolences go out to your family and friends. Mrs. Aguirre
