I have been listening to this song. Yesterday day when I was young. It's a song from the 60s and 70s. I found a newer version that hit home. The lyrics the same as before but it was delivered with a different meaning. I can remember living on Institute St when you gave me a life long lesson. Being 6 or 7 years old I had flat tires on my bicycle you showed me how to fix the flats tires what tools to use got a bucket of water. With a cigarette in your mouth saying it's so easy to fix a flat on a bicycle don't ask me to fix it again. Dad you had your own book on teaching your children 1 chapter only and Nike didn't coin the phrase JUST DO IT (DAMMIT). Yesterday day when I was young. Thinking back now it's funny how l would always talk back but in a respectful way. Why do l have too do that how come Terry can't do it? You would say because I'm telling you to do it you, would let me say my piece and l would get mad about it. When you heard enough you would say I'll knock the fire out you. I can say l aways got it done. Dad the one thing about Yesterday when I was young you talked very little about your childhood. I'm sure so many stories locked in your mind and your heart didn't want to let go. I witness the time when you reconnect with Aunt Lillian in El Paso running across the parking lot crying out her name. The long hug which seems like you never let go of her.The words I'm so sorry l never came down here to this day brings me back to Yesterday when I was young. The best times in my life with you wasn't my childhood it started when l turned 27. Everyone was pretty much grown and your grandchildren were the sparkle in your eyes. Taking road trips with you l do miss so much fun when we finally got to see Wynnewood, OK. The storybook of your life your chapter of your Yesterday when you was young had a knew meaning. You always told me on those trips if you don't ask me about my life you will never know. YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS YOUNG. My time is now lost in time without you.

Daddy not a day goes by that you are not thought of and missed.
I know that you would get a kick out of your great grandchildren. I can hear you laughing at them. We tell them about you and they will know and love you always. Rest easy pops, gone but never ever forgotten. Love you

I listened to some of your favorite songs yesterday. I laughed and I cried. My oldest grandson looks so much like you at times, he has your big toothy grin. I know when he is flashing it, he is thinking of something mischievous. I love and miss you dearly pops. RIP

Leonard has been on my mind.The last time I saw Leonard was at my Dad, Mervin Knight´s, funeral. He was telling tales about their times together. He had such a great smile and was a good friend to him. We were glad he and Mervin were there with us. RIP
