Dad.

  You chased away the monsters. You cradled me to try & stop the tears. You prayed over me countless times & still do. You held my tiny hand as we crossed the street & you taught me the value of working for your money. You’ve stood beside Momma & raised five children & now you’re reaping the rewards of grandchildren.

  Bernard, Miss Rosie & Joey will always be my childhood. You brought imagination to a whole new level when it came to your children & making sure our younger years were remembered. You brought stories to life.

  You’ve held the same hand for 33 years & still look at her like it’s the 1st year of marriage. With that same hand, you’ve prayed over our spouses & allowed us to be patient & hold out for the very best. You’ve set the bar high, Daddy.

  Thank you for allowing your children to work beside you & for every early Saturday morning breakfast at Krystal’s as we headed off to work. Thank you for the time spent investing in your children’s lives, instead of just investing in your job.

  Thank you for being here.


.Your youngest.
