Cindo, thank you for being in my life since I was 5 years old. I remember you used to help me with my math homework and would end up doing it for me lol. You were the only Dad I knew throughout my life. Thank you for everything you did for my kids and I. Now you're with my brother in Paradise. We love you and will always miss you.
