He got a rather large chest tattoo with his son's portrait on it and the dates of his life. He says it is a constant reminder to live his life to his fullest and appreciate everyday for his lost son. This is a very powerful tattoo and one that helps him to continue on past in the face of the tragedy that so effected his life.
