I just wanted to thank everybody for signing my Daddy's Guest book. You have no idea how much it means to me.
The loss of my father was very tragic for me, because there will never be another man out there like my Daddy. He was one of a kind, a rare gem. I think what keeps me going is the fact that I will see him again someday I just wish he didn't have to die so young and so soon. I was just getting used to the fact that he was really sick and then he died and my world shattered. Anyway thank you so much for signing the guestbook I hope to hear from you all soon.

We wish to thank everyone that takes the time to sign this guest book. We are deeply saddened by Michael's loss and the timing was quite a shock. He had been in the MICU at Hershey for over three months with metastatic lung cancer from Agent Orange exposure in Vietnam, as well as bone, bladder and liver cancer. He fought courageously but after two rounds of chemo his kidneys started to fail and the pain became unbearable. He was transferred from Hershey on the 25th at 1 pm and passed a few hours after his arrival at the VA Hospice Unit. Thanks again and God bless you all. Sheree & Amanda Thomas, 308 East Weidman Street, Lebanon, PA 17046. 717-274-5925
