You taught me right from wrong, showed me what it was to be strong when I thought it was hopeless, your strength is something that still amazes me to this day. You were and still are my hero, you left a void that will be never filled but I am grateful to be able to call you father and no one can take that or the memories away. The memories will remain in your heart even if you are gone and that is just as painful as the day you slipped away.
