Although I was heart-broken at my father’s funeral, the words spoken by those who knew and loved him were very comforting. I had no idea that my father was so well known and respected by friends and business associates alike. I always just thought of him as my dad. The several eulogies given at his huge funeral convinced me otherwise. My dad was a generous, giving man who touched the lives of so many others with his quiet thoughtfulness. He helped many people out of their financial distress without ever drawing attention to himself. He was an amazing man, and he was my wonderful father.
