I am truly thankful to have my father in my life... For the wonderful example he sets each and everyday...For being such a hard and dedicated worker...For always putting others in front of himself...For never turning his back on his children when they've disobeyed or gone astray...For being such a wonderful grandpa...for being my hero. I love you Dad.
