To my daddy from tanya i miss you every day I truely love you thankyou for being my father . You were very strong, macho,cool,funny man . Very giving man too always helping people out, what there needs are and most giving money to your relative most of the time. Im gald you showed me to be tough and independent person, kind and caring person, im always smiling, with no reasons. I'll keep that up. I wish all those times you have tryed to give me money i always refuse, and i shouldn't have, because i always told you, you need it, you earned it. so im sorry. i just wanted your pride me showing you i can make it on my own, and i am doing that.
