A WONDERFUL TRIBUTE THAT REMINDS ME OF MY DAD. HE HAS BEEN GONE FOR YEARS. BUT FOREVER...I WILL HOLD DEAR A MAN WHO WAS A STRONG POSITIVE INFLUENCE IN MY LIFE...WHEN THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE. THERE ONCE LIVED A FINE SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN...WHOM I WAS PRIVILEDGED TO CALL...DADDY. ENJOYED, MY FRIEND, THANKS. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS
