A Candle will always burn in my heart and memory of my Step-Father. Although there were times where we didn't get along but I and happy to say that I am Proud of you for everything you had done, for me, for my sisters, and especially my mother. I miss him so much. He will always live in his glory of the refugee belly, the rusted truck and always tinkering, and of course: asking me to make you coffee and pull out your clothes for work while you were sleep walking. Even through the bad times and the good, you were always a great father. May you be happy and well over the bridge.
