Dear Dom,
 
Today is Memorial Day, the unofficial start of summer.  Our summers will no longer be the same without you. We've planned all our family activities around you.  Mummy and I wanted you to have the best and experience different places.  We've been to Hawaii, Orlando, Puerto Rico, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, Phoenix and you and mummy went to England in 2009.  We don't have anything planned this year as we are still grieving from losing you.  Even a trip to our house in the desert seems sad as we bought the house for you so you can enjoy swimming in our pool and playing around our big back yard.
 
It's been 36 weeks from last Saturday since we saw you.  All we have now are wonderful and great memories of you.  Yet, it's still painful that you are not with us.  We've never imagined that you would go before mummy and I.  We wish we could've known and maybe we could have done something different.  I know I can't go back to the past but if I could I would like to re-live our summer last year and maybe do things differently before you went to school; or maybe take you to Children's LA. 
 
We brought you Old Glory today and put it next to your stone by Good Shepherd.  You always loved Old Glory and you always talk about it when you see it in school or wherever we are.  We also brought you some cones and hope we can bring a smile to your face.
 
We also noticed today that the light in our master bedroom was turned on. I can only hope you did that as we asked you to give us a sign when we visited you today.
 
We miss you so much Dom and we love you so much.  We can't wait to be with you when we go to the eternal life.  We hope you're with family and friends who also passed away and we hope that someone or some people are taking care of you.
 
I love you Dom,
Dad
