Happy Father's Day!

Dear Dad, I never had the chance to tell you, "happy Father's Day!" You left Mom and I when I was born. I regret that I never had my biological father in my life. I've blamed and resented you for everything bad that's happened to me.

A few years ago, I came into contact with relatives that I never knew, a brother and family I never knew existed. I have had the pleasure to communicate with them by mail and the internet. For this I'm very grateful.

In April 2010, I heard that you passed away, at the age of 58, due to cancer. You were cremated in West Palm Beach, Florida. (R.I.P.).

I just want to forgive you and say good-bye...
