To my Father
I lost my dear father Robert today after a short bout with cancer. Words cannot express the grief I and my family are going thru but I'll do my best.
He was simply the model parent: loving, protective, moral, intelligent and unendingly witty. I never met anyone in my life who lived The Golden Rule as steadfastly as he. He was an enormous influence in my lifelong appreciation for reading, movies and especially collecting. My continuing passion for coins and collectibles can be directly attributed to him and I'll happily continue to do it in his honor, until the day we meet again...
R.I.P. dear, dear Father
Your loving son
Dave

I know it's not enough, but I'm sorry.
