Not sure what to say?

My father taught me that there comes a time in life when you walk away from all the pointless drama and people who create it, and surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus on the good. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Love you my precious Father!

Dear Mr Roy, I was so sad to hear of your passing. Though we haven't seen each other in many years, your son John always talks about you. May you rest in peace and know that your son's family is thinking of you.
