Dad, simply put: you were a GREAT Dad. You adored your family. You were our biggest fan. You thought we hung the moon. Thank you for teaching me unconditional love, hard work, devotion, and most importantly, faith in and trust in the Lord. Your encouragement to me in every single endeavor spoke truth and success into all parts of my life. I will forever cherish our relationship, and be forever grateful for your belief in me. Save me some sausage and peppers, and yes, one fine Cuban cigar. We will indulge together in the Kingdom …. I love you Dad. So grateful ….

I am sorry for your loss. I worked at the WalMart pharmacy and looked forward to Mr. & Mrs. Tanella coming in. He always made me smile.
