My dad was from Texas there were five boys in his family. Howard,Theadore, David gene, Raymond and my dad. He was a very hard working man. He grew up on a farm with his brothers and worked hard everyday. He also use to work for central Hudson. He would always get on the floor and play with his granddaughter danielle which he loved with all his heart. She was his pride and joy. When his great granddaughter Emma was born he did the same thing. He never got to meet his great grandson but I know he would of loved him a lot. Well it's now almost five years that you've been gone but your always with me dad in my heart. Love your daughter lisa
