You’ve always been like a baby sister to me…we basically grew up together since you were 2 years old. Your dad was like my second father. He was kind….good hearted…full of life…a true go getter with an awesome sense of humour!!! Loved him and your mom so much. I pray that he’s in a much better place now with your mom and all his relatives and friends. My sincere heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family…
