I love you Dad. I miss you so much. I was so, so blessed to have
a great Dad. I hope that I can be like you. You helped so many people. From our family, to all the people you have fed at the SIM Food Pantry. I remember a Reds Game where there was standing
room only tickets. It was bat day. (signed by Pete Rose) You bought two tickets, you put me on your shoulder, and went in to get me a bat. What a great Dad you always were & are in my heart. You also coached a baseball team. Not a good team, but a team of kids that no one would take. So many great things you did for us. I know you are free from the body that did not work the last year.
God was there, and held your hand to take you to heaven.
I miss you so much & I hurt so much.
Thank you for the great life you gave me. I will see you again sometime.
I love you so much DAD.
Love, Tom
