In Memory of a Great Man

Today I lost the first man I fell in love with, the first man I wished to marry, the man who taught me the value of integrity in the workplace, in the home, in life, and in my heart. A compassionate man whose capacity for love soared above all else. He taught me to fish, camp, drive a car, shoot a gun, value education, work ethically, have compassion for my fellow man, build strong relationships, honor marriage, love my children above all else and fight for what I believe in. He was always there for me in times of need and his strength in life will now be mine. I will honor his memory forever and the memory of my mother and brother who all sit at the hand of God, in peace. Thank you God for the gift of such parents, I am proud to be who I am today because of them and look forward to joining them when my time comes to pass. Today, my heart is broken.........................   Rest in Peace Dad
