Happy Birthday

If Dad were alive, he would be 78 today.

He didn't make much of birthdays, but he stated his date of birth enough times that the senile ranch hand seems to always remember it: July 25, 1932.

Dad was remarkable in many ways. He was physically the strongest person I ever knew, he was the "wildest" person in the world to the outside, but the most loving person to his family, and he had the funniest sense of humor one could ever imagine.

Dad, I miss you more than you could ever know. I feel that you talk to me, so please know I hear you.

I strive each day to be a person that deserves being your son.

Happy birthday Dad.... I miss you so much.
