Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. My father passed on Saturday, January 16, 2010.
Throughout his life, my dad accomplished some amazing feats. Growing up, my friends and I would marvel at his strength, athletic ability, strong will, etc. I was so proud to have "that" dad of the neighborhood. The one who spends time playing quarterback for the neighborhood kids, or the one there to be that extra man to play basketball. The one that everyone wants on their team. My dad.
My dad's biggest display of strength was shown during the last month of his life. As his physical ability declined, his spirit was strengthened to a point that far exceeded his worldly achievements. Dad, I am so proud of you!
Now it is time that I pick up the torch and make him proud. Getting back on track has been challenging, but with prayer and perseverance, I will make it. Stay tuned, 2010 is going to be packed full of some good stuff.
Respect & Honor
My prayers go out to you and your family! Press forward Mike, lean always on Jesus and He will see you through..
