Your dad was a great man and I am fortunate to have known him and your family. My prayers are with you all; losing a parent is never easy but know that he is in a better place now; he is resting and looking over all of you. There won't be a day that you won't think of him or feel his presence; but be consoled knowing that he left a legacy behind; his family.
