It takes a special person to give most of thier life to helping people and making sure we, your family and the rest of the people living here in the great USA keep our freedoms. I am also greatful for everything you tought my brother and I along the way, all the things we got to experience, and everything you did for us. You will always be LOVED and MISSED and NEVER forgotten. You were my best friend, a true hero, and most of all my dad.
