Dearest Father, You and I had a very unique relationship of much, LOVE. As your first born I have taken through my life the honor you have given to me to share with others your Legacy and testaments. You were a kind and Loving human being to all. Your zest for life, I will carry with much pride. Your quiet sense of humor has also been ingrained. I smile from ear to ear as I think of you and hear your voice. I will miss eating with you those delicious fried claims we had devoured together. Your athleticism with figure skating was amazing. I from you have been gifted with your genes the ability to be athletic in my own ways. I can smell the boiled dinners you use to make for the family and the fudge. Great job Dad! Yummy. I praise the Lord for breaking your chains and setting you free. You were a prisoner in your own body from that dreadful disease of Dementia for way to long. You now are in the house of our Lord Jesus Christ and have been renewed. Dad, you will always be in our minds and forever in our hearts. Hugs and Kisses. Amore', Dawna Marie and Kent O'Donal
