It's so hard to believe your gone Dad. I was driving down the beach and the water was slick and the mullet were jumping. Oh how I wish we were on your boat watching you throw that perfect silver dollar filling it up with those big pop eye mullet. I love you and miss you so much. Rest In Peace old man. Rest In Peace. Say hello to momma for me.
