It took me a while to write this, but I want to thank you for all you did for me growing up. You worked hard and raised me with good values and for that I am grateful. You touched more peoples' lives than you ever realized here on Earth and you will be greatly missed. I love and miss you dearly, but because you raised us to be strong and find strength in God, I will be fine.
