“Hey, Dad. We’re all so excited to be back in Boston this week, and I thought it would be fun to look back on all those amazing years as a Patriot,” Vivian began the sweet video.
As pictures from throughout their dad’s 23 seasons in the NFL flash across the screen, the siblings continue to share their favorite corresponding memories from this time.

“Same here Benny!” said Jack. “But I know the rest of the family was there screaming at the top of their lungs during the first three.”
“So from Papa, Grandma, all your sisters, nieces, nephews, and us, congratulations on your induction to the Patriot’s Hall of Fame.” Benjamin continued.
