    To my loving father and best friend. I would just like to Thank you for all the great times and memories that we shared together. Looking back I remember the time you took me camping in Bear Mountain and on the way back Woodstock was going on and I will never forget you calling them a bunch of long haired hippy freaks and me wanting to jump out of the car and join them figuring John would have definitely been there. I will never forget all the fishing trips we took to Montauk Point. All the times you took me and my friends fishing on your boat in Freeport. As I got older you were always there for me to be helping me and teaching me. Our love and friendship only got stronger as the years went by. I will always cherish these memories and so many more. Thanks for being my Dad.
