You have been amazing example of a father Love I never had growing up!! Alway there to give me a big hug and a smile. Racing up the Hills behind your house. I still remember the look on your face when you were shocked that I didn't have to stop for air after our run. The love of going to Baseball games with you to watch Travis play.
