Tricia Tiede

And his spirit has never left me.

Any time I need my dad, he's there.

He comes in some of the most unique and special times.

I very much still feel that my father is there.

I have two beautiful little girls, and when I look into their eyes, I see both my mother and my father and everything that's loving and pure.

I have an awesome life.

I love my life now.

I wouldn't say that the incident in 1990 defines me, but I would say it's helped make me who I am today.

what we experienced together, that created a bond that obviously I couldn't have with anybody else.

And I'm glad that we were there together.

And I couldn't ask for more.
