Dad, it’s now 2018. Been awhile, even though I got you here with me.....I still miss you very much. It hasn’t gotten any easier, in fact the absence has made missing you even harder to deal with. I do my best though.

You were the best, as a father the absolute greatest. As a friend, a person could never ask for a better one. Funniest man that ever existed, a walking encyclopedia too. In a time these days where it seems nobody knows anything anymore, I carry all that you taught me against the wind.....just as you know I would.

Not many know you the way I did, they only saw one side of “Pie”.....for that, I’m honored to have gotten to know the strong and patient Soul that you are.

I know we’ll meet again, it’s all circular. Be safe wherever you are, I love you.
