I'm grateful for the man who raised me, teaching me about integrity, honor, and respect. He showed me the importance of family and how to be a loving, faithful husband for 46 years. My childhood was amazing, filled with incredible experiences. We traveled across the country six times, attended countless races, and met famous drag racers like Kenny Bernstein and Edie Hill. I even pursued racing as a kid, inspired by him. His impact on my life is immeasurable, always encouraging me to seek knowledge in books. I owe who I am today to him, as he raised me to be a solid, honorable man. Only now, as a father myself, do I truly understand the impact a father has. I took our first 30 years together for granted, but I feel blessed. He was an extraordinary human being, involved in community work and writing books and scripts. Our family had the privilege of traveling to Europe, South America, and Mexico. Despite his struggles with PTSD, he was always a good father and loving husband, teaching me what true love means. He operated on a heartfelt level, showering us with love. I miss you, Pop, but I know you're at peace now. 👼
