No one can even know how much this has rocked my foundation. My dad has always been there, not interfering but a constant knowledge that he would catch me when I fell and let me find my own way. Never once did he express his upset over me being in trouble. Coming to see me in side must have been so hard for him but he sat and visited and I was so happy. Even when he came for Thanksgiving and my dysfunctional life got in the way the man quietly sat through the drama watching the floor show and never uttered a word.

Dad was the best hero I had in life , he gave me away in his backyard in San Bernardino and let me have the best reception imaginable. For all you have given me Dad I am glad I was able to share my degree with you before you got so ill.

I Will Always Love You RIP  my hero  June 23, 2017
