Dear Dad, Thinking of you on your 83rd birthday. We love and miss you. You are always with us. Love, Diana

Bill,

I can tell you that the man that you speak of before he had children, was the same man years later we called daddy. Our family really appreciates your thoughtful and much needed note. I hope you and your family have a new year full of blessings! Best regards, Chrissy Young
