My father touched more lives than I ever knew, and I am continuously honored to find this out again and again. I always knew him as one to shy away from thanks. Though whether this has been to spare himself and the ones for whom he did countless favors the embarrassment of feeling "in need of help," or if it simply made it easier for him to escape before being paid, I'll likely not know 'til I ask him. To the men, and the admiration for, embodying a virtue so thoughtlessly that we can only be left with the notion "well, that's just the way we ought to act," and to the women who have always done the same, albeit in silent resolve: May your hearts know the fullness in gratitude that the righteous know in generosity, and there, may we all know together. Love Always.
