Daddy was what I called you.
Your love was an indication and part of my overall marital happiness.
There was once a man I loved.
A man who cared.
A man who shared.
A man who knew life.
This man was a father/grandfather, a professor of professors and a complete example of a gentleman.
He commanded respect but still a power house of humility.
People listened when he spoke.
A great intellect and a reservoir of knowledge.
You always took me as your real son,
You filled a space that no one will ever replace.
I miss your jokes and everything about you.
You could never keep a frown
Seems like yesterday that we were together.
Then I opened my eyes to realize you were gone forever.
It slices our hearts away to know you’re not here with us for the rest of our lives.
As the tears roll down and as I seek PEACE to stop the PAIN.
I know you are guided by the heavenly angels.
My family will love you for the rest of our lives.
Your last words to me, were to pray for you...
Today, I pray to God to grant you peace as well.
Time’s precious, it’s ever changing and waits for no one.
Rest well my beloved DADDY, rest well my pride, and rest well my PROF.
