Dad,
I have so many memories, times we shared bowling together in the league at Gable House. Trips to Las Vegas, sitting together as you taught me your strategy. These last 7 years sharing your home and watching Sister Act, August Rush, Walker Texas Ranger and Macgyver. I can think of hundreds of one word phases you said every day "It is another beautiful Sunny Day", We are "Just Newlyweds", "Take the Car" and "I may be hopeless but I'm not Helpless".
I was truly blessed to have...
