He is one of the kindest, most caring, most loving men I have ever known. I watched Ernie with his children and saw the love         them. I knew that kindness and caring had to         somewhere. I never heard Erine talk much about his father.
One day I asked him, ‘ I’m really puzzled by something. I know your father was the only one to raise you. What on earth (究竟) did he do to make you become such a special person?’ Ernie sat quietly and smiled for a few         . Then he said, “When I was a child, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘I love you, son.’ ”
Tears came into my        .Al had not left any money       , but he had been a kind, loving father, and he left behind a legacy(遺產(chǎn)) of love.
