Music has always been the heartbeat of my dad’s life. Ever since I can remember, he’s had a melody in his head and a song in his heart. In 2003, he released his first album, Internal Affairs, a project that came straight from his soul. It was a beautiful reflection of who he is — genuine, creative, and deeply passionate. Since then, he’s dreamed of recording a second album, one that captures the stories, wisdom, and emotions he’s gathered over the years.

Now that he’s retired, he finally has the time — but not the comfort — to invest in himself. My dad has never been one to ask for anything. He’s the kind of person who shows up for everyone else — family, friends, anyone who needs a helping hand or a listening ear. What he doesn’t realize is just how many people have been touched by his kindness, his humor, and his music. He doesn’t think anyone would care enough to support him in this dream, but I want to prove him wrong.

This GoFundMe is more than just about making an album — it’s about giving back to someone who has given so much of himself to others. Every donation, big or small, will help him bring his lifelong dream to life and remind him that his music — and he himself — truly matter. Thank you for helping me show him how loved and appreciated he really is.
