Thinking of You
What does it mean to know, that someone is always there. To nourish you as you grow. Someone who will always care!
It means you grow confident in the things you do. Living life to it's fullest with a positive view.
Thank you Uncle Richard for being the one giving so willingly! It helped me grow into the person you always hoped I would be. I love you so much!
You were not just an Uncle to me, but the father I never had! I will always cherish the times we had together and never forget them! You will be missed, but NEVER forgotten!
Love Always,
Regina
