in

45-year-old
son
has
revealed
that
he
no

grieves
for
his
dad
and
is
thankful
to
him
instead.
"Something
very
sad
happened
many
years
ago
on
this
date
but
I
don't
live
and
breathe
this
date
the
way
many
of
you
do," Contactmusic
quoted
him
as
having
written
on
his
official
webpage.
"I
appreciate
your
intentions
and
prayers
but
I
refuse
to
be
saddened
this
day
or
by
any
other
memorial
day.
"I
glimpse
back
over
my
shoulder,
only
to
thank
those
that
have
gone
before,"
he
had
added.
