He was a special man who always seemed to be a good father. He kindly welcomed this weird white girl into his home whenever Misty would bring me over. My heart goes out to you all. There is never a good time to say goodbye. May your good memories and the support of others help you live with your grief.
To the Woodley our sincere condolences and prayers for you all. May God grant you peace during this time. Love you Harry and Regina Dalton ๐๐
