Mr. Hardy my 2nd daddy I got to know everything there is to no about you. While being your care giver 24/7 for 3 1/2 years I stood by you like I promised you to the end. And it was an honor and a blessing to be your daughter for 10 years, you always called me your angel and now your mine....i will never forget you, and every morning I wake up and your not here torments my soul, my time and days revolved around caring for you, now I'm lost and don't no what to do anymore. But I honored you in every way possible....i gave all my love and devotion to you, it's started as you were my friend to my dad then my patient to my child....and my heart aches bad. You left so soon but I understand you had too, you were tired of holding on to nothing while you grew weaker and weaker. It hurt me so bad to hear you say I'm ready to go home now I'm tired, but Im also happy you no longer have to suffer anymore...you can now walk again with a brand new heart....i have no regrets about what I done for you almost 4 years. I'd do it all over again if I had too but you rest those weary bone and Rock those golden wings you earned them..no man alive can take your place or rank that high THE LEGEND THE ONLY ( THE WARRIOR )....REST IN HEAVEN DAD ZACH AND I WILL BE FINE JUST WATCH OVER US... CAUSE NOW I GOT BOTH DADDYS AS MY ANGELS....
