This song was my dad's favorite song. My mom and dad threw some awesome parties. I remember Frank Sinatra was played when the party was coming to an end. My dad would sing this song with such passion and truth. My dad DID do it his way!! He lived life on his terms and it was his way or the highway. He expected respect and he got it. He made his mark. He came from nothing and made something of himself. He was a remarkable man. I am proud to be his daughter. I miss you daddy. I should have told you that you were and are my hero. I thank God for giving me the 10 years I had with you. I got to know you and we made our memories...You, Boogie, and me. The Three Amigos! We love you forever. Boogie and I will see you again someday. Until then, we will keep you in our hearts. You will never be forgotten. You are loved.
