4Dear Photograph: Deployed Dad
“Every little girl needs her daddy, funny thing is, I need you more than ever now that I’m a teenager. I’ll be ok while you’re deployed, but it’s still the hardest thing ever to watch you go … you are my hero. Love, Dana”
5Dear Photograph: Pink Pride
“Dear Photograph, My daughter’s soccer team rallied around Team Mom Karla, in a circle of love. I hope one day wearing pink will mean they’ve found a cure. Sadly, this year wasn’t Karla’s winning season. Missing you, Betty”
6Dear Photograph: The Journey
“Dear Photograph, Blowing Rock was our stop off but not the destination. We never got to where we were headed and regretfully Daddy didn’t get to travel that way … ever again. Larry”
7Dear Photograph: Angels
“Dear Photograph, Can you please tell my aunt Sue to turn the other way and whisper to Aunt D? I need her to tell aunt D all the little secrets on how to beat her breast cancer because she once climbed that mountain too. Maybe then I can keep the tears from falling because I know she will be there for her. Just like we will. Love, Krystal”
8Dear Photograph: Falling
“Dear Photograph, I fell in love with a woman. I’m not ready to let go … but she is.”

12Dear Photograph: A Real Cowboy
“Dear Photograph, He was a real cowboy right down to the wallet he carried in his boots. Riding horses and roping cattle throughout his battle with cancer. How we wish he didn’t have to ride off into the sunset. Missing him forever. Love, your family”
13Dear Photograph: Grandpas
“Dear Photograph, I wish I could feel that cozy, snuggly place again I once had in your arms. I miss you Pop Pop. Love, Jenna”
