There are those in your life that no matter how hard you try you could never repay them for what they have done for you. Here I have a format whereby I can say thanks to those who have made me who I am.
My wife Lynn. I love her so very much. Without her this life would be miserable. She is my soul mate. She may not realize it, but by all accounts she is NUMBER 1 in my life. LOTS AND LOTS
There is my Dad. He is far and away the greatest man that I have even known or ever hope to know. What I have learned about life has come direclty from him. He has taught me respect for that which came before me, love for those around me and compasion for those who need me. I can only hope to be half as great a person as he. Thanks dad for taking me with you fishing and hunting. However, I am still traumatized by the fact that you never put a hook on the end of my line until I was 7. No wonder I never caught any fish. LOL
Then there is Mom. Mom has always been my emotional side of things. Not only has she taught me how to love, but to express that love in so many ways. Without moms like her to pave the way this world would be a cold and unemotional place. Thank for the personallity mom.
Then there is MA. My grandmother. I am not sure where to start. She has made such the difference in my life. I love this woman with all my heart. She helped teach me sooooo much. This is the most wonderful woman in the world. Ask anyone.
I would also like to thank my many friends and family for their support thoughout my life. Sonja for teaching me when others thought I was unteachable and other motherly advise, Karen R. and Tish S. for being the big sisters I never had, Uncle Homer - the gentlest man that ever lived (I miss you so much), Aunt Arlene for showing me life always has a silver lining no matter how dark the clouds, Scot G. for being a life long friend and his wife Jody for being a good friend also, However, I do still blame you for that miserable night I spent in the trach can. I guess it was paybacks for making you walk in the grass to school huh, (will this story ever die?)
Danny C. and Paul B. who along with Scot G. are the greatest brothers a person could have, Cathy C. and Carolyn C. for being my second moms while Wes C. and William C. were my second dads. Thanks for your help and guidence as well. Dean M. Thanks for the legal advise over the years, but I sure wish you would delete those E-mail. LOL I have many friends and family that are not mentioned, but they are none the less loved and cherished.
Papa, may the apples be sweet where you are.
To these people I say thanks. I can never repay you for all that you have done in my life. On this page is my small token. I love you all with all my heart. Thanks for making me who I am today.
