Dad, I'm sure you know I didn't make it to the funeral..Michael was having a time with his chemo, I know you understand. We weren't that close ever and we had our LOUD moments but I think we concluded pretty well don't you? Going back to Hawaii soon, one of our favorite topics, right!? When I get to the beach and sit and watch the ocean waves I will hopefully feel your presence and remember all the stories you told me when you stationed....
Godspeed dad time to rest
