This a tribute my my late Father-in-law.

The Pit of Self-control He was the epitome of self-control. He showed willpower that originated from the bottom of his soul. He could orchestrate any set of circumstances with great composure, using unbelievable restraint. He could organize things to run smoothly and still find time to handle any complaint. If things broke down he could quickly perform needed renovation. Almost before a problem exists he can bring about the restoration. That is why he has earned the name and proudly so. They call him the Pit of Self-control, a name that you know.
