He was a wonderful man. His every thought was of his family. He worked his heart out for us, but he was always there for us. No one could ask for a more loving father. He and mother were a joy to grow up with. They loved each other so much even when they had their little spats the love shown through.
In some ways I do miss him but in others I don't because he is still here with me each and every moment of the day. I only regret that the younger ones in the family really didn't get a chance to know his love while they grow up. They are missing out on a wonderful experience, THE LOVE OF A WONDERFUL MAN!
