In the short time you were here on this earth, you touched many peoples lives. You changed mine in ways you couldn’t possibly imagine. I will cherish everything you ever taught me and hold it dearly to my heart. I will pass on the morals, the ethics and the will to have the courage and strength to push forward in life no matter what comes at you. You taught me to be the man that I am without me knowing and in turn teaching your grandsons as well. Your legacy will live on. Although I was not your blood, you still took on the role of being my Dad. I’m proud to be your son. I will never forget the wise words you spoke at times and the eloquent way you spoke when times called for it. Your softer side was seldom seen, but i’m honored to have seen it all the same. I know I was not the model son, but our relationship flourished never the less. You’ll always be in my heart, my mind and my soul. This is not a goodbye. It’s merely a pause. Until we see each other again and pick up where we left off. I’ll take care of her as you requested. You needn’t worry about that, but I know you will anyway. Until we meet again! Your devoted son.
