View all 12 ReflectionsThank you all for your kind messages. Dad, I was only two when you passed and I hope I made you proud. I retired from the military after 25yrs of service & was also a deputy sheriff for few years myself.
I think of you often and stop by to say hi to you & Mom anytime I drive by Steinhatchee. I miss you both and wish you could have met your 3 grandchildren. 31 & twins are 23 now.
Love Always,
