THEODORE W BOTTOM

  I was named after my dad, and for most of my life I tried to prove I was nothing like him.  I have come to realize that it could not be further from the truth.  now that I am married and have kids of my own I find myself professing to them the same sort of ideals and values that were passed to me by a man I should have appreciated more.  He was no saint, but I wish I could go fishing with him again.  I miss you Dad
