My father went to heaven this past week on July 26th. At his memorial service, I was asked what one thing I remember most about him. My answer…he was a simple man who worked hard without complaint, who loved his family and put the needs of those around him he came in contact above his own. To me that is the true measure of greatness. Love, family, friends, our co-workers, the person in front of you in line…treating each other as we ourselves we liked to be treated. That’s the legacy that my father left me…and for that I am blessed. So take time to spend with your loved ones, respond to a snarl with a kind word or smile and be grateful you are alive and have the ability to make a difference in someone’s life everyday. I'll always miss you, Pops. You made a difference in all our lives. Love, Rick##imported-begin##RIchard "Eli" Ball##imported-end##
