| I remember my time as a child and my
| |
| | don't know how but everyone survived
|
| efforts to please and emulate the actions
| |
| | these encounters.While moving my mother
|
| of my dad. Although we were not the
| |
| | from one house to another I encountered
|
| same, every effort was made on my part to
| |
| | an old gentleman who had known dad all of
|
| copy his every action. My dad was a
| |
| | his life. In answer to his inquiries I
|
| tough act to follow. He was beloved by

| all the members of the family. He had a
| |
| | man had told me of his respect and
|
| true sense of honesty and seemed to know
| |
| | admiration for my dad and offered his
|
| instinctively the right path in life to
| |
| | condolences concerning his death. He then
|

| | added that he believed dad to be the most
|
| short in my efforts to copy his very
| |
| | honest person he had ever met during his
|
| essence. He seemed to never falter when
| |
| | long life. Dad was a hard act to follow.
|
| everything around him was falling to
| |
| | I believe that dad came from an era that
|
| pieces. He was a good man in the
| |
| | appreciated and put much faith in the
|
| strictest sense. I always wondered at
| |
| | attributes that he exhibited during his
|
| the fact that while dad was a moral and
| |
| | life. The only sure thing in life is
|
| upright man he could be an immoveable
| |
| | change.I married a fine woman and we had
|
| object who refused to give ground to
| |
| | children. I had tried to be a role model
|
| anyone when he knew he was right. My
| |
| | like my dad had been for me. I had sons.
|
| feeling when I was growing up was that my
| |
| | Distractions became a major factor in
|
| dad, uncles and almost every male figure
| |
| | our relationships. I gave time and
|
| in the family lived by a code that I had
| |
| | effort into my childrens upbringing. I
|
| trouble understanding. Dad could be the

|
| kindest man on the face of the earth
| |
| | same connection as my father and I had
|
| while still being the most stubborn man
| |
| | enjoyed. Many factors lead to this
|
| that I had ever faced.At his funeral most
| |
| | distraction. Bad television, peer
|
| of the family was torn to bits
| |
| | pressure, alcohol and drugs condoned for
|
| emotionally. My mother showed her strong

| | use and consumption by our children by
|

| weakness. The men in the family were

| Several of dad's grandsons broke down
| |

|
| emotionally and some went into hiding for

| | always weakness forced them into bad
|
| do to even function at minimal
| |
| | behavior. Viewing the television news and
|
| capacities. There were people crying and
| |
| | accepting reports of sons killing their
|
| wailing during the service. The preacher
| |
| | families and other hideous acts
|
| offered his take on dad. I remember the
| |
| | perpetrated by these kids made me feel

| dad behaved like a rock.He was
| |
| | degradation in our society. Role models
|
| unshakeable. That was true but I knew
| |
| | are few. Kids sometimes rebel against
|
| that dad had another side to his

| | them and will act accordingly. We can
|
| into words. I knew that if anyone made
