I was born on August 24, 1988 in Hershey, PA. I've lived in Palmyra for most of my life until I graduated then my dad and I moved to Mechanicsburg. Since I can remember my life has revolved around sports. My family are all a bunch of sport fanatics and they have all been very talented at the sports they have played... I've gotten that instinct and ability too. I started out playing baseball, football and wrestling when i was 5. I excelled greatly in all 3 of those sports and as of today still excell greatly in football. I was a 2 time all state linebacker which was the greatest sports accomplishment i have had.
I have experienced a lot of death in my lifetime... I have lost a lot of family members i will just tell you of the closest ones to heart for me:
Uncle Lanny Musser:
He died when I was 11 years old from Hotchkins disease. He was the funniest person i have ever met and always could make you laugh no matter what the case was. He loved life his family and just wanted the best for them. Including me. I used to spend a lot of my younger years with my cuz at my uncle's house. He always took me and my cuz out fishin and sometimes hunting but always loved to spend time with us and take us out to just have fun. I was the last kid to get to see my uncle lanny before he died.....R.I.P. Lanny, I love you!
Grandma Bonnie Musser:
Oh what to say...Gram took care of me every single day up until i was out of kindergarden. Every single day she would take me out to the store and buy me a present... not because i asked for it but because she loved me and i was that special to her. She was a very hard working woman. And raised a family of 5 children that all loved her. She was an amazing caring woman that always thought of her family first. She died when i was 8 of a massive heart attack. I'll never forget her and how she always stood up for me and protected me.... I never got a chance to say goodbye....I miss her
Grandpa Alfred Musser:
My Best Friend, Role Model, Bunk Buddy, Fishin & Huntin Buddy, Biggest Fan. There is not enough i could say about this guy. Pap was my best bud. We did everything together i always enjoyed being around him. He loved to fish and took me out all the time just to go fishing and we had some of the greatest times just takin a day and fishing. After grandma died me and him bunked in my bedroom. For 7 years he bunked with me and i never once was tired of him. I just loved being around him. He never missed a single one of my sporting events while he was living. He loved to watch me play and always said i had the most talent of anyone in the family. While he was deathly ill and on the hospital bed he even wanted to come see me play...he told the nurses to take him in the ambulance to come see me play...He died of 3 major vital organs failing...i was the last person he talked to and acknowledged.....I miss him dearly and will always strive to be like him....love ya pap
Mom.....Lorri Ann Fackler:
Ugh.....what to say where to begin.... mom was amazing not just as a mother but as a wife, a worker, a boss, a christian, just everything. My mom was the sweetest person ever. All my friends called her mom and loved her deeply to. This was the hardest thing i have ever went through in my life. She got diagnosed with colon cancer during my freshman year of high school. She was a strong amazing woman that loved life and didnt once complain or whine about cancer or ask why her. She just accepted it and tried to fight through it. She was only given 2 months to live but instead gave us 2 years of her strong presence before the cancer finally took over her whole body. This was the hardest for me especially more than anyone cause i was a momma's boy... I did everything with her and always hung out with my momma. She always made me feel loved, always helped me through my problems, was my shoulder to cry on, the hand to help me up, and just sooo much more. Even my friends loved hangin out with her and wouldnt mind her being around. She died of colon cancer. I was the last one she talked to......I still remember seeing her take her last breath...I would have done anything....ANYTHING to take her pain away and i would rather of had it been me that wouldve had the cancer.... I just wish i could grow up to be even just the slightest bit like her...
But even with all this mishap in my life i still find the good in life and live it to the best i can with what im given. I am a fun loving guy that just enjoys every day that i have here on this earth. I can handle a lot and have a strong will. I wear my emotions on my sleeve along with being very emotional and passionate about everything i do. I am easy going and very easy to get along with. If you ever need a hand, help, advice, or just someone to talk to i will always listen.....
if you ever need me or just want to talk my screen name is Dfacks29
