I am a drive-thru cashier at Long John Silvers in Welch, WV.  On that note, I would like to thank my boss, Cristy Christian, for all she has done for me and allowed me to do while working.  Cristy, without you I could not have fulfilled many of my goals that I have met and overcome.  It has been my pleasure to work with you for these past two years, like all employers we've had our ups and downs but through it all you have been the best to me and maybe I was the one who would somtimes act immature.  I know I will never find another boss who can come close to been as great as you.  Thanks for everything and I will never forget all you have done for me.  I would also like to thank Bobbi Pruitt for all the advice and help she has given me and also for all the encouragement that I have received from her.  Bobbi, you are like my second mom and I don't know what I would do without you and I will really miss you this fall.  I don't know what I will do when you're not their for me to run to with my problems.  To all my other co-workers, James Swain, Brett Roberts, Daniel Addair, Tracy Lockhart, Diane Daniels, Tessa Lane, Angie Church, Kita Williams, and Mark England, thanks for putting up with me for so long. 

 

I have a special friend who I met in December on a trip to Harrisburg, PA.  On March 11, 2004, we got together for which I hope will last forever.  Tiffany Leann Daugherty, where do I begin?  Without you baby, I don't know where I would be today.  You have brought such a smile to my face and have shown me that I can achieve any and all goals that are in store for me in life.  You have shown me how to overcome all obstacles.  You are truly beautiful in my eyes and I love you with all my heart.  Thank you baby for all you have done for me and for everything you are.  God couldn't have answered my prayers in a better way than when he sent me you.  Our time together is limited but precious at that.  I cherish every moment we share with each other, whether it is just taking a walk up the road or when you hold me in your arms so tight.  You have brought such a sense of comfortablity and security to my life.  No one can ever come between us baby even though a few may try, they will not succeed.  You know I look at you for who you are on the inside and I could not ask for someone with a better personality or sense of humor and I love you for who you are, not for what you have or what you look like.  Tiffany, also thank you for accepting the good and the bad things about me, everything I have done in the past and all our differences which we accept.  I have forgiven you for all you have done and I hope it is now the past and does not cross your mind as I have put aside my past and begin to build my future with you, my only one.  I love you Tiffany with every breath I breathe, with every tick of the clock and I will till the end of time...
