Not sure what to say?

Dear Beebow, As I reflect on the man your father was, I think of the joy and comfort you provided by visiting me after the death of Malia, my only sibling. This gesture showed just how you were raised and stands as yet another tribute to your father. Thank you for your love and I thank God for people like your father. Best wishes to you in this new year of 2024 as I now join the club with you of living without immediate family. God bless you and keep you is my prayer. Chip

Your dad always made time for all us, no matter if was at school or on tennis court, Mr. Springer taught us how to pay it forward.
