My father was a wonderful person, he raised my brother and I to be respectful trustworthy people. I know that I made my daddy proud and I will continue to make him proud with every milestone and goal that Ive completed and those that I will complete. Words can not express what he mean to me, he will always have a special place in my heart and I know that he will always be watching over me, my brother, and my mom. Im going to miss your smile, your humor and everything about you. I will always love you daddy
