Terry Stillwell
Dad,
As hard as it is to say good-bye, I guess we all know that the time comes eventually. For us, it was way too soon 🙁
I will never forget all the times we had, good or bad – and all the great memories that came along with them.
I will never forget the energy you brought to any room or any situation. Even if you had worked a 12-14 hour day, you always came home in good spirits ready to be loud and obnoxious because you knew you would always make everyone smile. I like to think I take after you in that sense, Dad.
You were always there for me at the drop of a dime, no matter what time of day or night… You taught me some valuable life lessons that I am understanding more and more as I grow. We didn’t always see eye-to-eye, but who does? We are family and that’s all that ever mattered. That, and the unbreakable bond of father and son.
Thank you for being such a great dad and grandfather. I really wish you could have stuck around to see my kids grow. We really miss you.
I’ll see you on the other side one day, dad. I love you.
Love Fishy.
David McMullan
