Ahren's note to my Dad on my Dad's Birthday February 16th

Dear Papa Stu,

     I know that i've never really had a heart-to-heart talk with you seeing as how i was only 10 when u left. I'd just like to address you for a minute or two though just for a second. I know you're probably enjoying singing with the rat pack and fixing convertibles in that big Cugel in the sky, but i'd like to address this quick letter to you.

     You see i never got to really talk with you  and know a lot about you but i know we had some good times and some not so good times. Oh i wish you saw how much i regret ever pulling for bush in the first place. I just wrote this though to wish you a happy birthday. What a great birthday present it would be if you saw how liberal i've become. You would've thought i never even gave an itch for Bush.

      As i said, i never really got to know you so i'm learning bits and bits from mom. If only i had the time to talk i know we wouldve been great friends. But, i guess this is a little long for a birthday note. So with all that said i'm happy i had the pleasure to have you as a grandfather in my life.

Happy Birthday Papa Stu

                                                                                    Sincerely,

                                                                                       Ahren Karess Troutman
