I'm very sad to hear of my father's passing. He adopted me when I was six years old but pretty much raised me from when I can remember. He took time to teach me to love and respect nature and to try to leave a good impression on everyone you come on contact with. It broke my heart when he stopped talking to me when I was grown. I guess he might not have even told anyone that i existed but I did and I do. I wish I would have been notified of his passing but I guess I won't be recognized as his daughter even in his death. As much as it hurts me I still feel a debt of gratitude because of how he treated me when I was still a child. He did step up and serve as the only father I'd ever known until I turned 18. I am sad we will not have a reunion and even more sad that my relationship with my siblings had to end as well. Much love to you Dad. Thank you for being in my life and being a good example for me to follow. I'll never forget that time I got in trouble at school for hypnotizing my friends at school after you taught me how to do it. Maybe now I can be at peace with it all and I truly hope the same for you my father. Rest well.
