I love you dad, and I love how while lashaia was in Bali and asked me to look after Nanny, you double checked i had looked after Nanny every day, made sure I fed her and she was ok, she was always ok dad but I love that you always questioned me knowing Ted was no longer around, so you looked after her too, im sad and happy you have both gone together, and sad and happy that you will help nanny, and I know she will help you too, sadly you will both help me 💖

Butch, you and Jan were a constant from my childhood. 50% of my youth was spent in your home raiding fruit trees, trying to learn how to play the spoons and laughing or scheming with Teressa about our next grand adventure. You will be missed dearly. Rest easy, from that little bitch Melissa xox
