Letter to Dad

Dear Dad;

It has been 15 years since the day you died.  It is hard to believe that the time had passed.  I still think about the times that we shared.  It is hard that you have missed on a lot of things.

It would have been nice if you were at graduation when I went to Independence University. I also got a Master’s degree at Full Sail so that I can become a writer.  I was 37 when you passed away.  Dad, I no longer work for the newspapers as an inserter.  In fact, I am doing something that you would have done if you were alive.

Rachel passed away in 2020.  I have your ashes because most of the family did not want you laid to rest with her.  I really think that this was shitty after they made a promise to fulfill your end of the will.  The only thing that I can do is to put your ashes at rest, somehow. I am working for a way to lay your ashes when I can find some property. 

I am very determined to grant your one wish but dad, it will not be with Rachel.  I have no idea on where they buried Rachel.  I am suspecting that she is at rest near Allen but it is almost 5,000-8,000 miles away.  In order to make this happen, I am working on making some money to buy some land. I have no idea on how or where this is going to happen but I want to invest in a car and a home.  I will lay you to rest on that piece of land.

Dad, people will say that this is impossible, but I am going to find away to do it.   It is my plan to get something going just so I can lay your ashes in the ground.  I do not care if it is in this state or another state.  I am planning on buying a large truck that is new just so that I can pack up and go.

I am going to stop moving from state to state.  I am going to move and this will be a permanent place of residence.  My back and arm will not let me travel anymore.  I am planning to make one final trip and that trip will be my final resting place.  I plan on retiring and taking the money that I get with my new life and get a home for myself.  This will be my final voyage because pretty soon you will see me in heaven in a few years. 

Dad, I am going to be 53 in February.  They have diagnosed me with a disease.  Many of my YouTubers are just finding out something that they did not know.  I have been dealing with a lot of coughing fits.  My health is deteriorating.  The doctor said that it is because of an advanced version of lung disease. I am going to fight the illness.  However, I know that it will catch up with me sooner or later.  That is why I am planning on moving into a home and die at the property. I love you and can’t wait to see you in heaven.

Your son,

Kenny
