Dear Casey,
My name is Kristin. I listen to you on 100.3 Detroit. I'm writing to you about my dad. He's always there for me when I need him, and he's there when I need help if I have a problem. My dad will always be in my heart forever & I love him very much. I'm very proud to have him in my life & to have him as my dad. He's a wonderful person. I just want to say "Happy Father's Day" & I'll love you as long as I live. Could you play "Leader of the Band" for my dad? The song makes me think of him. That's all Casey.
