    Not many people got to know the real you and the wonderful man you were. Not many new you’re wonderful sense of humor. You were an avid collector of many things including lapel pins, autographs, match books and coins. You’re not only the best dad in the world but you are also my friend. You were there when I just needed someone to talk to. You were also my friend. I got to know the real you as an adult and see how amazing you truly were. I’ll never forget going on those random road trips Or the hiking trails we used to take together. Not many new year love a photography in the fact that you are quite talented. Not a lot of people know that you served in the Canadian military in the tank core. I will miss you forever, daddy until we meet again. I won’t say goodbye I’ll say so long.
