I've rewritten what I want to say at least a dozen times. It's hard to sum up 15 years of feelings and thoughts into a single paragraph.
What I can say is you are my father and a piece of my being and even though you are gone, that will never change. I've thought of you often and will continue to do so. I still cant believe that you're gone, but with time, things will get easier. I hope you've found peace and that you watch over your new grandson, Orion, and I. We love you.
