| MY ETERNAL GRATITUDE TO GOD AND TO THOSE WHO HELPED ME ALONG THE WAY |
| "MY DEDICATION" I HAVE TRAVELED FAR AND WIDE IN MY LIFE, BEEN IN WAR AND PEACE, HAD A FAMILY AND LOST IT. KNOWN BOTH RICHES AND POVERTY. LIVED IN THE BEST HOMES MONEY COULD BUY AND HOMELESS ON THE STREETS OF VIETNAM. IT WAS THERE, I LEARNED THE VALUE OF LIFE. ALONG MY JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE, I HAD MY UP'S AND DOWN'S. BUT, AS I ENTER THE REMAINING PHASE OF HUMAN LIFE, I WISH TO SHARE MY GRATITUDE WITH THOSE WHO HELPED ME ALONG MY WAY. FIRST, MY ETERNAL GRATITUDE IS TO MY GOD. THEN, TO MY MOM AND STEP DAD, NOW DECEASED, WHO RAISED ME. ALSO, TO A WONDERFUL LADY AND A GOOD FRIEND CALLED LILA DEVI AND MR. BAO, AN OLD FRIEND WHO ALWAYS HAD A FRIENDLY EAR TO LEND ME. A GOOD FRIEND, MS PHOUNG HANH, WHO STOOD AT MY SIDE WHEN OTHERS LEFT ME. MY NEW WIFE LOAN AND OUR DAUGHTER, SARA, WHO BOTH LOVE ME AND NOT TO FORGET MR. SAU, WHO WAS THERE WHEN I NEEDED HIM. A SPECIAL WARM THANK YOU GOES OUT TO..... MY SON'S, ROBERT AND KENNETH MY BROTHER'S, RICHARD AND KEVIN WHO BROUGHT LOVE AND JOINED ME IN THE EARLIER TIMES AND TO MY SISTER, FELECIA ANN, WHO WAS THERE DURING THE GOOD TIMES. RECENTLY, DREAM COME TRUE, MY LITTLE DAUGHTER SARA MARIA THERE ARE NO WORDS TO BE FOUND THAT CAN BE SAID, SO I JUST SAY "AN ETERNAL THANK YOU" "Something New in our family, a child, a daughter which ARRIVED on 08-08-2008." "A Miracle"- "Gift of God" has come to our home, a beautiful child we call Sara Maria" We are Grateful and Thankful to You our "Lord God" for all we have and what we are. "May God Bless My Household" "amen" |
