Well daddy, you been heavy on my mind and heart! I miss you so much! I greatly appreciate the life, knowledge and wisdom you bestowed upon us! The survival skills for a daddy's girl have really come in handy. I seem to find myself saying "What would my daddy do?"! I must say you taught me how to rig up some repairs, lol! Like you would say, "It will last until you can get it fixed!" So many times I wish you were still sitting in your favorite chair, but at least now you have a new suffer free chair! I will always love you and think of you, you played a very important part in my life and my son Tre'Jon (your pride and joy)! You did your BEST! Until we meet again! Love and miss you daddy!
