Mel Gibson, my hero!

I live in north Louisiana, and not too much goes on here, but in today's Shreveport Times, there is a story that Kenny Wayne Shepherd being engaged to Hannah Gibson, which is Mel Gibson's daughter. Now, if you haven't been keeping up with Mel Gibson, he was on Jay leno the other night, and mentioned that his daughter is engaged to be married to Kenny. I want Mel Gibson to know that I have been friends with Kenny's father for more than thirty years, and I was at the hospital when Kenny was born. I remember when Kenny's father, and I would take Kenny remote control cars. A year and a half a ago, my daughter died, and I was feeling so lousy, and Mel Gibson was being interviewed by Diane Sawyer about his movie, "The Passion", and several things that Mel Gibson said, made me feel like living again. I went to "The Passion", and must say that Mel was right-on the mark with the story of Christ. Mel, you need not worry, if your daughter does wind up marrying Kenny, she'll be just fine! I can tell you some really good stories about Kenny's dad. Thank you Mel Gibson for making me feel a little better with some of the things you said about life with your interview with Diane Sawyer. I'm Catholic, and if Kenny is taking classes to become a Catholic, God bless him.
