    My grandkids lost their dad to cancer 3 days after Christmas in 2009. These are their "Daddy" quilts. They are made partly with his PJs. There are blocks representing the Red Sox, and the Masons. There are blocks of black labs and golf. These are all parts of his life. There is also a pocket from his business shirts with the logo. Inside the pocket are butterflies "Butterfly kisses from heaven" They all have the special nicknames that their dad had given them
