You loved me like a father You cared for me like a mother You showed me love like no other.   You took me in like a son Adopted me to your own Even when I felt abandoned You never left me alone.

Years of your physical presence
Nothing means more to me than my life, Nothing means more to me than my family, Nothing means more to me than my sister, Nothing means more to me than my parents, Nothing means more to me than my father,
November 26, 2006 was the last day I got to see my father alive. How does a son suppose to cope not seeing his father around? Reality punched me in my face when I saw your casket put underground. I can feel that inevitable lump in my throat.
