Harmony Longneck says
Even though I didn’t really remember him, I wish he could’ve lived till the age of 50 or so.
Aloysius Longneck says
Man, as much words that I could say could never compare to the sadness I had over the last 3 years after loosing my father was hard, even though I barely knew him, he was still my father, I didn’t know him, I didn’t even know the slightest thing about him that a child should know about their parents and yet I loved him as if I knew him my whole life and I still have many questions that can never be answered now, but in a way without teaching me, he shown me how to be better man and I will be for my father. The last memories I had with him in Arizona were the times I could’ve asked so much questions but instead I took the time having a blast with him and my sister and I was happy with just that. I just wish I had more time with my dad now that I’m turning 17 in 2 months. I hope he knew I loved him with all my heart.
