Thank you pop for being a huge part of my life. Thank you for having a big heart even while being tuff. Thank you for the good times, all the fishing trips, the laughs and smiles. Rideing in your car listening to that ridiculous cassette tape you always played. The circus peanuts you would surprise us with I remember they were your favorite. The handshakes with the weird finger rubbing thing lol. Its the little stuff you did and showed me that made me love you so much. Thank you for everything I'll never forget you. I'll see you again.
