"I can take it in but I can also dish it out"

Remembering your heart-full laugh...under the hot sun...having a great time...many memories we made...you always saying I can take it in but I can also dish it out...then one day something was dished out at you and you were able to take it in but this you can't beat it...only a couple months to live...seeing you grow thinner and thinner...weaker and weaker...but even so you haven't lost your humor nor that heart-full laugh...you have been so strong and I admire that...you have such courage...its amazing...we still have such wonderful memories still play a round of cribbage...I have always loved you as a father and I will miss you...we all will...we'll miss your smile, your humor, your jokes, your love, and your wisdom. But your advice I will take and remember forever..I promise..
