    Wow so sweet. Start showing kindness to these boys instead of meanness to these boys...that's someone's son. Or daughter. They have feelings.

    Your father built something money cant buy. He is a lot like my own papa, he sold the family name and his good word with each sale, you inherited the love of your community back. You will make your pa proud.

    Wipe your tears. You have a legacy. Love the community has for your Dad was shown to you through handwritten notes. Nothing changed, you think he won’t be there when you open, or when you turn the key at night?
