“Aint no thing but a chicken wing.” That was my father’s favorite saying. For me, it meant not to worry about what’s going on in your life because, in the end, it will all work itself out. It was about staying calm and relaxing, not stressing about the small stuff. For those of you who knew my father, Donald Metcalf Jr., you knew how much of a loving, caring, and sometimes frustrating person he could be. But at the end of the day, he was always there when you needed him. It didn’t matter how drunk he was; he would show up for you in a heartbeat.
There is so much to say about my father, and so many stories to be told from family and friends. I’m hoping with this, we can raise the money to give him a proper send-off, one that he deserves and that we can all feel good about.
Thank you all for your love and donations in advance. Every dollar will help, but if you can contribute $100, I would be especially grateful. Once again, thank you all, and please share this with family and friends.
