I found myself really unfulfilled by the answers that are traditionally offered to questions of why some people suffer and why others suffer so little.
birthday loves party wrapped
We had a party, a Father's Day party, going-away party and daughter's birthday party all wrapped up in one, ... He was great; the thing of it is he loves kids.
