Daddy: I miss you very much. You taught me so many things. How to hammer a nail into a piece of wood, the bible and its teachings, love and patience, but most of all..never to judge others. You lived your life to the fullest. I remember one of our last conversations when Ash was home. You said..you had a dream. You called the nurse in, and she asked you if she could help you, and you got up and walked out. You told us that you knew somehow you could do it. Just get up and walk out. I knew at that point medically you couldn't, but your faith always lead me to believe that there may be a glimmer of hope. I think that is what I take with me everyday. You taught me that there is always...a glimmer of hope. It has been a long time since I saw you. I miss you dearly. xoxo P.S. One day, I will see you again, and thank you for being you. You were a kind and gentle man and I am thankful that I was chosen to be your daughter.
