Page 68 - MY BOY CHAZ

EARLE FRANKLIN STEVENS

Looking back at all my sins growing up, I THE REAL HERO IN MY LIFE

realize now how wonderful I had it. This
man I called and knew as Dad kept the

family secret and did his best to treat me
as his own. I don't know many who would

have the courage or strength to do that in
light of all the problems I created. Now in
my late hours of life realize that he did in

fact love me as his own in spite of all the
trouble I caused, all the shame all the

sorrow. He would always do his best to
bail me out. I will always see and
remember him as my Dad. I will always

love him no matter how distant our
blood. I know I will someday meet with

him again, and I pray that I can share my MY DAD
love, my appreciation for all the pain and MY
suffering I put him through in this life.
