Thanks mom, Double D, Phil, George, Amy, Pat, Piper, Andy, Louie, Rick, Bill and all the others.

    Being around children all day is a constant reminder of the power of influence. It’s enough to keep you running to the Father for wisdom, strength, and forgiveness.

    Love you Kyle….

    P.S. I had a good time reading the names of those who influenced you and filling in the last names … Dr. Phil, Andy Capp, Louie Armstrong….
    You know my sense of humor.
