Thank you dad. I'm gonna miss our talks. I'm gonna miss the advice. I'm gonna miss the way that you always settle me. I'm thankful for every moment that we shared and I'm looking forward to the moments we will share in the future when my time comes. So until we meet again ..save me a seat where you are . Love you ..Jeffrey Alan
