Family

A man and a woman, both in glasses, cheek to cheek; her arms are wrapped around his shoulders. — My dad and me

For my dad, my mom, and my brother—

You are the love at the heart of my life, and the inspiration behind the good I hope to do.

Dad, I miss you beyond words.

May the way I live honour all three of you. May my actions say what words cannot: thank you, and I love you.
