I lived with a passion for life, a lot of people probably say that, but I lived it right on! I lived for the relationships I forged. I nurtured and cared for each and every one, they were my life's prize. I adored and learned so much from all of you. I had the best life for what you all added to it. I put all I could into my relationships because it defined me. I would have it no other way.
To my wife, I will always love you with all my heart. We did good. We stuck it out through all the tough times and relished in all the oh so many good times. I am most proud of the job we did with our kids. They shine!
About those kids, I can't thank you enough for all you do. Boys, I love you. Have all the fun you can with your time, but no grab assing in the house! Wendy my little girl, I know this is the hardest on you. For this I am sorry. Just know that you are the rock of this family. You do your daddy proud. All my love sweet heart keep those boys in line.
To my family, know that I love you deeply and your love means the world to me. Kids, Bopum is so very proud of you both. River and Danth, it has been such a treat watching you grow up. You both have added so much to me. Don't be in a hurry, and know Bopum is always by your side holding your hand.
To my friends, not to toot my own horn, but this is where I shined. I poured everything I had into all my relationships. I learned so much passion, love, and understanding from each of you and tried like hell to return it all ten-fold. Know that you were all so special to me. I did my best to always be generous with time and attention to my friends. I always wanted you to feel like you had a dear friend for life, because you did. You made me a better man for what you added to me, and I love each of you.
Well, I got my hat on now so it must be time to go. I am not good with particulars so I will hand it off to someone who is. It is what it is they say. One last kiss and I love you all. Tony, aye out, got a run. Oh, I see some squirrels.
