This video hits home for me in so many ways. I was raised by an amazing stepfather (Jon) and its impossible to put into words how much of an impact he’s had on my life. He’s had a profound influence on me both personally and professionally. He’s shown me unconditional love and support throughout my entire life.  I can’t imagine what life would be like without him. My only regret is I didn’t take his last name. If I could right one wrong, it would be that. There’s a song by Brad Paisley that tells our story perfectly, its called “He Didn’t Have To Be.”

Jon, I’ll never be able to find the right words to thank you for all you’ve done for me over the years. I love you with all my heart and wish you the best Father’s Day this year.
