A Tribute
One of my dad’s very best friends passed away last week. I haven’t mentioned or said anything until now and I am not even really sure as to why. I have known this man since I was Aiden’s age and maybe even younger. I wowed him with my smarts at Aiden’s age because I could sing the entirety of the alphabet song and he thought I was a young genius. My sister and I used to play with his kids while he and my dad hung out. I even remember him making noodles and potstickers from scratch. He was a man who was full of life and friendly to everyone he’d meet. My dad said that he was the favorite teacher of many, many students over the years who I have no doubt will want to make a tribute to him as well. Thanks Mark for being such a good friend to my dad and for spending a little time getting to know his two precocious daughters. Enjoy Heaven and when you have a moment or two once in awhile please keep my dad out of trouble (oh and shake up his life a little sometimes too). :p
