My father offered me guidance, wisdom and cherished childhood memories. I remember all the times he cheered for me in sports, all the times we cooked and laughed together. He was one of my greatest inspirations to be a better human being and to always aspire to do better no matter what hardship can occur. He taught me so many different skills to help me through life and I will always remember him and cherish my time I spent with him on this earth. I love you forever Dad, I miss you every single day and wish we had more time together.

I am just aware of Al's passing and have many feelings. Al, as are many members of the family were close at one time or another through the years and still are in heart. We grew up together and in many ways. Al and I played softball, hunted, worked and played on my pool team together in the day. We may have tipped a few beers together in laughter and sadness. Al also helped me out when I needed help and I returned the favor as friends do. I most certainly will miss him.
