Dad, how do I say goodbye? You have been my rock and strength keeping me steady when I feel shaken. You and Mom taught me as a child but molded me into the strong independent woman I am. You and Mom taught me to be honest, hardworking, and trusting in the goodness of others. You and Mom taught me that family supported each other during the hard times and that family stayed together no matter what. Well Dad in honor of you and Mom's teachings I will stay by all of my family even though not all of them have stood by your children. Until we meet again Dad, I will keep You and Mom in my heart.
