As I have posted before about him, he was a man’s man. Served in WW2 and Korea and was a POW. Played professional baseball and billiards and was a friend to all. He was best at being my father though. He would work 14 hours a day as a building contractor but always paused to take time with me and make me a home cooked meal. He was my best friend. Probably why I fail to keep/need or want close friends

All that to say, I miss you dad and sorry I have failed to live up to your example. Thanks for teaching me that no matter what you do in life……..DONT BE A GAMECOCK!!! Love ya dad

My Dad/Best Friend died Oct 8, 2013 and his birthday is Dec 2nd . . . I’m always grateful and a bit sad on those dates and I always warn my bride the day before so she’ll know if I’m a bit off.

We were both blessed with men who cared and knew how to love!!!

Best to you my friend!!!

Days like the day your father passed will always seem like yesterday. I'm glad your relationship was solid!
