Don,
I met you for the first time when I made an appointment with you to ask permission to marry your daughter. You were very nice and told me you thought I would make a good husband and father. Thank you for making me a part of your family and always being a great and enthusiastic husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend.
