That is a fantastic story and it is clear that there was a great deal of love and respect.

I must also admit to a bit of the green eyed monster. My equivalent story would be “13 reasons why I wish I knew my OWN father”.

A long story and for the most part one that stays firmly in the back of my mind. Suffice it to say that I did know and spend a lot of time with my father until we (my brother and I ) were in our mid twenties. For no other reason than his remarriage, or so far as we can tell, we have not seen him since.

Well not to speak of, and that was 10 year ago.

Hold on to your memories while you can !

We gain recognition as good parents by the way our children speak and treat us. Reading this post, you’re father is an admirable man, a person who had so much love to give.

I love the pics of him with that car, and your sons.
I miss my dad too.
Actually he was my Saturday Photohunt this week.
