Dad, you’ve always been my biggest inspiration. You’ve taught me so much about life—about hard work, integrity, and treating people with respect. You have this quiet strength about you that I’ve always admired. I hope you know how much I look up to you and how much I strive to live up to the example you’ve set.
You’ve been there for every major moment in my life, guiding me with patience and wisdom. I still remember the time we spent in the garage, working on projects together. Those moments were more than just father-and-son bonding; they were life lessons I carry with me to this day.
The way you handle challenges, the way you love our family, and the way you approach life with such humility—it all leaves a lasting impression on me. I feel lucky every day to have you as my dad. I don’t always say it, but I appreciate you more than you know.
You’ve given me more than I could ever repay, but I want you to know how much I care that you are here. I hope to make you proud and continue living by the values you’ve instilled in me.
