Dear Papa,

When I watch wrestling...I will think of you,
When I eat a Reese cup...I will think of you,
When I pour a giant bowl of cereal...I will think of you,
When I sit at the head of the dinner table...I will think of you,
When I see a Michigan State Sparty...I will think of you,
When I watch a scary movie...I will think of you,
When I eat circus peanuts...I will think of you,
When I play Rummy...I will think of you,
When I am at a Bowling Alley...I will think of you,
When I turn on my TV...I will think of you,
When I put my house shoes on...I will think of you,
When I put coleslaw on top of my chili dogs...I will think of you,
When I see a cowboy...I will think of you,
When I pass a camper on the freeway (I knew how proud you were to own one)...I will think of you,
When I look into my rear view mirror as I back out of a driveway...I will think of you,
When I get a promotion at work (because every time I received one you told me how proud you were of me)...I will think of you,
When I make my kids rice, milk, sugar, and cinnamon...I will think of you,
When I pass by the Golden Gallon in Romulus...I will think of you,
When I tell my wife, "Has anyone told you how purdy you are today?"...I will think of you,

I can go on...

I will always remember how strong you were...because each time you asked me to feel you muscles, you said, "How does it feel to touch steel?" You will always be B.A. Double D...BAD!

I will always remember the admiration I had for you for stepping up to plate and working so hard to earn a paycheck to support my grandma (your Sugar Bear) and her 7 kids when they needed a father.

And when the time comes...
I will be ready to hold your hand again...at a Flea Market in heaven.

I love you and will forever miss you.

From, Your Boy

xoxo
