I just wanted to send out a message to a very important person in my life. He’s the Block I was chipped from, he’s the tree this nut  didn’t fall to far from, he’s the man who made me such a crazy Michigan fan that Istill can’t sleep the night nbefore the annual Michigan Ohio State game. He taught me how to catch a football and after figuring out I was a lefty and just maybe the next Ted Williams, he taught me how to play baseball. He’s the guy who took our family on so many wondeful trips and adventures not to mention the fact that I got to practically grow up in the Big House,Michigan Stadium thanks to him!

He taught me what it takes to battle through some of lifes biggest challenges,he battled cancer and HE BEAT IT! Most of all though he taught me how to be a man and that was probably his toughest challenge. Knowing what I was like growing up has just made me love and respect him  more each year. I know i couldn’t have put up with me if I was you, let alone turn me into well…ME!

Dad I know I haven’t always acted like I was listening and I know I made you flat out crazy somedays,but I want you to know I couldn’t do what I do and I couldn’t have become the dad I am for my daughter without you and everything you’ve taught me. So Happy Fathers day from one dad to another .And thanks for never giving up on me,it’s what mattered the most. I love you! You old son of a bitch! and I mean that  as a compliment!
