    This man I dearly loved. This man was always "there" for me and my children. This man never complained. This man was a hard worker. This man loved his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. This man gave all and expected nothing in return. This man tried his best to help others in time of their need and many times was taken advantage of because of his kindness. Had it not been for this man, I know my life would have had a huge void in it. I called him "Dad" - loved him all the days I knew him and he was a part of my life and the lives of my children - I will love him still. Rest in the loving arms of Jesus, Dad. Till we meet again.
