Dad, we didn't always agree with things but we always made up. You weren't perfect and neither am I. Through the years, our relationship became better. I want to thank you for always being there when I needed you. I'll never forget how you took your gloves off when I was in isolation at the ICU despite the recommendations of doctors and nurses because I told you how I felt like an object when I was on a ventilator. My feelings mattered more to you than the possiblity of you getting sick too. I will never forget the drives that we had with mom on PCH and how you drove me around Balboa Island to look at the houses when I felt overwhelmed. I will remember our dinner at IHOP and Norms together, and, most of all, I will remember your smiling face the last time I saw you before you died. I told you that I was a lot like you and you seemed happy to hear me say that. I will never forget you. I love you, dad.

I will always cherish the time we had together. Unfortunately our time was cut short . You have left me with many happy memories. The laughter that we shared and our adventures together. I will love forever. I will hold you in my heart. Thank you  for being the wonderful man you are. Until me meet again. Toni
