My father passed away July 10th, and I miss him so very much. I'm the baby of the family. I have leaned on my Dad for as long as I can remember. I have my brother to lean on now. I never knew how much we love each other until my father got sick.

A Man is Known By His...
Character-What he is
Conversation-What he says
Conduct-What he does
Contribution-What he gives

Befitting of two wonderful men, both
who I can always lean on.

This song makes me break down in tears. I remember when I was little, my big brother would always play this song on the car ride home from church. We would sing it together every night, and then he carried me upstairs to my bed when I fell asleep in the car. In 2018 he was diagnosed with cancer. I walked into his hospital room and he was singing it with a radio. I quickly joined in. That's when I heard a beep sound. His last words were "Call on me, brother." My favorite and saddest song in existence.
