| I devote this tribute to my loving father Steve. He was in the US Army during the Vietnam era. He was a food inspector during his service for the Army.His death is and was a shock to us all. He was a great man with a big smile and many stories to tell to make anyone laugh. He knew no strangers. He lost hi smother Marjorie in 1980 and his father Sam in 1993. He had a strong sense of family, knowing that life is too short to get bent out of shape over the petty differences one many have in one's life. He tried to keep in contact with his aunt and his cousins in California as much as possible. He loved his wife, Kathy deeply. Whenever he would be in the doghouse with her, he would use one of his reserved distraction excuses stashed usually something I, his daughter did wrong. Therefore, he could get back in the good graces with my mother. He was a very wise man. Many people have told me throughout my life that I had the coolest Dad. I knew I did. I loved him so much and I will keep his memories I have of him with me now and forever. |
