Dad was an important part of who I have become. He taught me to be a good person, to not discriminate, to not judge, or hate. He was always about doing what is best for others when I was growing up. I remember him being very passionate about the Golden Sunshine Singers. He would take his personal time and spend it driving us around to nursing homes to entertain.

I had to opportunity last year to thank him for making me into a person who cared about other people and I am eternally grateful to him. I love you and will miss you forever, Dad!
