"I love you pop!"

"I love YOU boomer!"

"Peace."

Thursday, November 13th 2025, my father passed away.

My father wasn't always in my from the beginning and that's something I had struggled with for a long while. However, during my senior year of highschool I decided I myself was old enough to change that. My uncle helped us to reconnect and ever since then I have been BLESSED. As far as I'm concerned, my father always did his absolute best I was loved and cared for. I LOVED spending time with him and seeing just eerily similar we were naturally compared to how vastly different life had made us. My father LOVED SO DEEPLY whenever his heart was involved and rarely was it not! He has so many "children, nieces and nephews" because everyone he loved became his family. My father, the people's "UNC." I had so many dreams and visions of the future I want to share with my Father as he never had anything but support for myself and those he loved. Im devastated to think of how much life we'll truly miss out on spending with each other but I am beyond grateful for the times spent together. My father lived a lot of life. Some of it was good and honestly, some bad as well. I cherish the memory of my father and will absolutely make it my mission to carry the torch and build a legacy for our family name. Love and respect were his ultimate priorities and I swear to honor that!

I live in Colorado while my father remained in our hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Getting back home has always been difficult but I simply NEED to say goodbye to my father. The support and assistance to make it possible for me to be with my father one last time would mean more to me than I can quantify. If possible, please, help me say peace to my pops one last time.

Thank you.
