Dad, I can hardly believe you are gone. You were the best Dad, I could have ever had. You taught me so very much. You taught me how to paint, electrical , plumbing & carpentry. I followed you around like a puppy dog. I´m so grateful for you & mom
For teaching me about how to be a good person. So often, I´ve grabbed my phone to call & check- in.
Then I realize I can´t all I have now, are so many wonderful memories. I hope I made you proud. When I started at Armco, you and mom said " we got your foot in the door, the rest is up to you." Those words have stayed with me.
I believe that whatever we do in life. , it is a reflection on your parents.
Take care, dad. Rest easy & enjoy spending time with mom
I love you, Dad
