The Day My Life Changed Forever...
The Day My Life Changed Forever...
THIS IS MY DAD...
"I loved your father...I'll never forget the impact he had on my life...and your Dad had the greatest laugh."
Terry Bradshaw
In 1983 I was born and I made my dad...a dad!
My dad was drafted Falcons as a tight end and signed a two year contract but never got on the field because of an in injury sustained during training camp.
My dad's quarterback, roommate, and best friend at Louisiana Tech was Terry Bradshaw.
My dad and two other teammates - Terry Bradshaw and Tommy Spinks - were invited to meet with President Nixon in the Oval Office.
I have so many great memories with my dad during my developing years. We wrestled, we laughed, we prayed together each night, we played chess, we camped, we fished, we did it all!
In 2001, during my senior year of high school, a year before my father drowned, my parents took me to New Orleans to watch my favorite team play.
LATER THAT DAY...
...back in the condo my family was in total shock. What just happened to our dad?
Then, as the eldest son, I was tasked with making the phone calls.
First caIl...my grandparents. They were devastated to learn the news of their son's passing.
I then called our church, the hospital where my dad worked, and other friends and family.
Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be making this phone call.
With each call I missed my dad
more and more.
Meet My Dad...

Game days were a family affair!

In 2001, during my senior year of high school, a year before my father drowned, my parents took me to New Orleans to watch my favorite team play.
Later That Day...
MY DAD, MY HERO
I was in the backroom talking to God..."What just happened?" "Where were you God?" and asking "How can life even go on after this?"
My mom appeared in the doorway and said "I have something for you and it's from your dad. I found it in his briefcase."
I had no idea what she was talking about.
My mom walked across the room and handed me a letter. At the top it said "Dear Blake, Natalie, and Marcus"
It's hard to describe how I felt in that moment but one word is...LOVED. My dad, not knowing he was about to die, spent the last couple months of his life writing us a letter...Wow.
I began weeping.
Even after his death my dad was still there for me.
MY DAD, MY HERO
The power of ONE man writing ONE letter leaving ONE legacy changed everything in my life!
That day I dedicated my life to living for what really mattered...God and people.
In 2010 I married the girl of my dreams and by 2015 we had started our family when my little girl was born.
The moment she was born everything changed! It was time to write her a letter the same way my dad did for me...And I quickly realized how hard it was. I couldn't get my thoughts organized and it seemed as if I was always "too busy".
That's when it hit me...every dad wants to write this letter but most dads don't...why? For the same reason I kept getting stuck.
After a couple times of God clearly saying,
"GO HELP DADS WRITE THIS LETTER!" I got it.
The Legacy Letter Challenge was born. It was time to help dads like you.
