To Our Father Freddie A. Wentworth Jr.
Our father was a very giving man always there ready and willing to give a helping hand.
He never asked from anyone anything in return, because giving in life is how you learn.
All he ever wanted was to be loved and liked, and loved for who and as he is because that should’ve been more than alright.
He had the most loveable affectionate laugh filled with such pure joy, the type of laugh that one could never be annoyed.
He taught his sons to always work hard for what you want, and don’t ever look to get anything in life for free because taking care if your family is your responsibility.
And in his final moments as I held him close and watched the tears pool up in his beautiful blue eyes, I knew that he knew, the love all his family and friends had for him was no lie.
Your loving sons, Jasen, Freddie and Josh.
