Description
Last year, I lost both of my parents. My father passed away after several years of long struggle with energy, breathing, and various heart issues. A few months later, my mother passed when she was involved in a nasty car crash. Losing your parents is never easy. Losing both in less than six months is ridiculously hard. Even with the greatest of faith, learning to live in light of their passing is something that will take many months to process. Though both of my parents deserve this kind of attention, this small book is focused on my father. I am my father's son. In the most Biblical of ways, I am proud of that fact. What I hope to accomplish here is three fold: I hope to tell lots of folks about my father's amazing life. I want to celebrate what he passed on to me. I want to honor Sam and encourage others to honor their father. I didn't wake up this morning with this plan, but as I sat and drank my coffee, it just seemed like the proper task to undertake. Thanks for undertaking it with me.
