Daddy, I miss my Superman. I picked up the phone and dialed your number the other day. Oh how I wished to hear your voice on the other end. Everyday is hard without you here. Not one passes that something doesn't remind me of you. Hope Mommy is happy to have her dance partner with her. I miss you both terribly. That's what happens when you have the best parents God can gift you with. Until we meet again,
I'm back quiet.

I remember when I met you. You didn't even know me, you weren't too fond of me. But you helped me. I think that is why I respect you so much. You didn't have to help me but you did. Even though it was just some old tubes for a cb radio to you at that time it was the world to me. Thank you Mudd. RD. Devil. 2095 and too many other aliases to list. Thank you and tell my son Lil Dj I love him. RIH
