Dad, It has been a few years now that you passed. I think of you often. I wish I had spent more time with you while you were here. I appreciate all you taught me, and how you conducted your life. You took on all challenges as you went through the years. You provided for us well. You were a person of calm amidst the challenges that face us all, be it personal or professional. I tend to be a bit more animated in my style than you, but I do try to remember your work ethic, and taking care of the family is always the most important objective. We are doing well - and wish you could have seen Texas with us. Natalie asks about you, and hopes that Nutmeg is at the Rainbow bridge waiting with you. I'm sure she is. All our love, Steve |
