Thank you for giving me the strength, the heart, the empathy, the courage, the sense of humor, the manners, my wild ways, my tenacity.
You are us. My everlasting love. I hope you finally know how loved you were here. Thank you for trying so hard with us. And if we didn’t tell you every day, thank you,” he mentioned.
