Dad, Its been 5 1/2 years since you were called to heaven. Since then, I got married to my soul mate. Im so glad you got to meet her before you left us. Im only 7 classes from graduating from college. You have been my motivation through her. She brings up the time when you and her were on the porch at your house and you told her to make sure I finished. Im almost there! Your other son got married and has a son with your middle name as his. Your daughter got married last month. Mom has been great. She is so strong, but misses you so much. I can see it in her when I look at her. Your daughter is now safe and protected. We still have season tickets to Tech Football. Every game I feel like I see you in someone there. For a split second I see your face on other fans faces as they walk through the tunnel into the stadium seats. I look skyward often when Im at the games. That is where I feel closest to you for some reason. We spent many Saturdays there cheering for the Jackets together. The last year or so was the best. Meeting for lunch at the sushi place or chilis. I felt like I was finally really getting to know you as a man as well as my dad. I think about you each and every day. Everyting seems to remind me of you: A U2 song on the radio, a yellow VW vanagon, when I play golf, I feel you there with me. You left us a 55. Too Young from a Heart Attack. I pray that Me and my brother will live to see our sons sons. We will speak of you at every occasion. Watching football, watching TV, "eating like kings". Althought I dont think I ever said "I Love you" in those words, Im sure you knew. My last memory of you here was at the Atlanta fish market eating with the family and Van. We had so much fun eating out together. I really miss you and will see you when my time here is done. I want to teach you how to play golf so one day we can beat Paulie! Love Na AMF!

I Miss My Dad
