Dad, I already greatly miss all of the wonderful times we shared especially when you lived in Shillington and Largo. Our flea market adventures, bike rides, swimming pool times, and long talks at the kitchen table will always remain special to me.
Thank you for always being there for me not only as my Dad, but a best friend as well. You were the best I could ask for and more, and you will always hold a special place in my heart and Linny's.
Love you always and forever!
