Oh, how I loved this article about your Dad, Maurine. I felt like I was taking a walk down Memory Lane. Your mom and dad were so sweet. I will always remember him handing me my graduation diploma. He was larger than life.

Thank you, Maurine, for writing this beautiful tribute to your father. No wonder you are the outstanding person that you are today. Reading this lifted my soul. My own father was the exact opposite of yours, so I love learning about such good, fine, righteous fathers and knowing that they do exist!

I was robbed to have not known him in this life. Hank you for sharing your stories with me and all of us. You are incredible like he was. Love you mom.
