    Father's Day will never be the same until I am united with you again. I love you with all of my everyday ♥. You were the greatest father to me daddy. I am old enough now to know better but regardless of my age, you were my GO TO. A man so smart and so realistic. A man so strong and so loving and energetic. I hope I make you proud in life so when I see you in the next life -you will smile as always. I miss you dad beyond belief, see you when it is my turn. Love you forever and beyond eternity!!!
