  Didn't think today would mean much when I got up this morning but it turned 
  out that
  it has.  Today I lost one of my best friends and I wish I had him back.  
  That friend was my
  father.  After 29 years of caring for him as a quadriplegic, he finally 
  bridged the final gap in
  his life.  As I sit here and type this small tribute, I can only think of 
  things I wish I had said
  and did for him.  I fell short with some things and I'm sure he appreciated 
  those things
  that I was able to do.

  Tonight, I wish I still had him here to guide me through a few more years.  
  I always felt cheated
  in that we couldn't do the things normal father and son do especially 
  restoring and showing
  tractors.

  I hope I'll see him again some day to tell him what this day meant to me and 
  what
  he meant to me.  Hopefully, I did make some difference in his life..

  Sorry for the spam,

  LeRoy
