Heaven just got a great golfer, an amazing swimmer, an all-around athlete (to see him throw a football in an effortless, perfect spiral was a thing of beauty), a huge sports fan (especially Syracuse University -- Go Orange!), a deeply faithful and religious man, and the best father in the world. Thank you for being such a great role model, a constant supporter of my career, and for letting me share your name. This is one of my favorite pictures of my father, taken on the dock of our family's cabin on Cache Lake in Canada. If there are canoes and lakes up in heaven, he's teaching someone the J-stroke right about now. Love you, Dad.
