I miss you, Dad. I miss your strength and your wisdom, your passion and your generosity; but most of all, I miss your laugh, Dad...your uproarious laughter that filled rooms and echoed throughout, that contagious laughter that stopped the clock and altered everything it reached. It dwells inside me and never ceases to make me smile.
