Dearest Dad, thank you for everything! You were the best Dad, you taught me special things like changing the oil and tires on my car, taught me how to fix things, road navigation, repair electronics, you were a great teacher! I’m so glad that I could be with you when you transitioned to heaven, holding you hand and singing to you, wouldn’t have had it any other way. Saturday’s will never be the same, it was always sharing lunch with you visiting and day trip adventures, I fondly cherish all the time I was able to spend with you and remember you always! Love and miss you, your daughter Kim.
