The highlight of the day
The first time I walked through you door.
I didnt know what to do.
I was scared and happy at the same time.
Isabel walked me down to the barn and showed me your baby.
You came down shortly and always and a smile on your face and a beer at hand.
Then you walked me out to the pasture and there he was.
Apollo the horse you were letting me ride.
After about a year of knowing you, you had the surgery.
Ended up giving you a stroke and putting you in a wheel chair for a while.
it was hard on me to see you like that.
You were like a dad to me.
I loved that about you.
You started getting better and was able to walk alone.
When you first showed me that put a smile on my face.
Not to long after that I got bussy and wasnt able to make it over there as much.
It was hard for me because I loved being over there.
It was like another home for me.
I felt so bad.
Last summer I went over there and saw you and Izzy and I never have seen you happier.
It almost brought tears to my eyes when I saw the look on your face.
I didnt realize how much I missed it over there.
It was sad when I had to leave.
Its been a long time since I went over there.
I feel really bad.
I was at a friends tonight and had a good night.
then I come home and my mom tells me the news.
You, Rick, died on Thursday.
I am in tears but I want you to know I am happy that you are ina better place.
I am Happy that you dont have to go through the pain anymore.
I am Happy that you will always be with me.
this is in LOving memory of my third dad Rick!
I loved you with all my heart!
