Please forgive typos on previous version...it was written on an iphone...please post this version instead. What I say here I say in honor of the father that was torn from his children's lives when they were at a very young age. As a child I was taught to hate my biological father, I was shamed because I looked like him, our Kelly last name was shamed and we were taught to believe people with the last name Kelly were stupid. As a man I look around at my family, the family raised by my mother and stepfather, and it is broken in every sense of the word. Having removed myself from this broken and abusive family is one of the best decisions I have made. Looking in from the outside on my family knowing what I know now about my biological father and of myself I say "If I am anything like him I know we would have a strong close family built of love, honor, loyalty, respect, good values, and strong sound morals today if we were raised by our father instead of our mother and stepfather. If I am anything like my father I am grateful and am especially grateful I am nothing like my mother and stepfather". My only regret is not giving my biological father a chance. May he rest in peace and may my bearing his last name proudly put a smile on his face. My condolences go out to his wife and children. May the Lord smile upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.
May our hearts connect somewhere
We will mise you very much Norman it is hard to say good by, but i know we will meet one day. God Bless Pastor Guillermo Vasquez Sr
