I talked at great length with my youngest daughter the other night. It felt so good to recall so many different memories of you. Of course, you never met Alexandria but somehow she seems to know you so well. I just know you would be so proud of her,of all your wonderful Grandchildren. I'm trying to make you proud too Dad. I have been fighting cancer now for quite a few months. I remember how cruel, debilitating and agonizing it was for you when cancer struck you down. You though always maintained your dignity, demonstrated remarkable courage and your strength was unyielding. You faced pain,trauma and ultimately death with such bravery, grace and love in your heart. You are my inspiration.I love you so very much Dad.xx
