“Do one thing at a time” my dad would always say. He was a strong advocate for not worrying about anything! Constantly reminding my sister and I that things will come in due time,but he also promoted hard work. From waking up early, cooking us breakfast and gathering his tools and keys; he left to do what he loved most. Helping others.
