Dad,
I love you so much. I knew this was coming yet I'm still so shocked and sad that it's here. I will always carry you with me everywhere. You have made me who I am and I will always remember your lessons. I really hope you have found peace up above and that you're with Johnnie right now. I hope it's everything you wished for.
Love,
Smoke
