This is for Bianca and Alan. Dad could not say enough about you and loved you both so much. He was so proud the day Alan graduated and was just as proud when Bianca brought his only grandchildren into this world. You both were there with him during the most turbulent times in his life and for that you always held an even more special place in his heart. He loved all of his children equally, but was always aware of the diverse circumstances under which we existed. You both make me so proud as you have embraced his vitality and determination and have overcome the odds. I have no doubt that you will both be very successful in you endeavors. Please know that I will always be your cheerleader. Love always, your big sis, Shelby
