Robert Patrick Hassett, Sr.

September 11, 1925 - September 15, 1999

Daddy, It feels like I just watched you slip away, yesterday.  You were such a wonderful Dad.  The places you took us, the things you taught, will be forever in my memory...You were so spirited, and loved by everyone that happened to have been fortunate enough to have known you. What are we ever to do without that happy smile you would shine on us. You made me who I am, for that I am truly blessed.  They say when someone great dies, it rains.  Well, Daddy when you died, we expected a hurricane...I guess that says a lot. Thank you for all you have given me. Did I ever tell you you're my hero, you were the wind beneath my wings...Our Silent Strength...I miss you dearly, Janie passed fifteen days after you, I know you're hugging her lovingly in your arms...

Love, your surviving daughter,
Tracy
