How you used to pack goodies for your three kids each time you came back from work. I was so happy when you loved the big belt buckle with a Red Indian and the words Geronimo on it (which you wore proudly). I got it for your birthday from Central Market back in 1987, you made me so happy by simply showing me that you loved it. There are so many things I recall but I guess I will write them out in my own time. Dad, you might not have known it then but you really did make my days brighter.....each and every single day! Even thinking about you nowadays makes me smile...but sometimes I tear, recalling the happiness you gave me and then feeling sad for the fact that you are not here with me. I love you Dad! Happy Father's Day!

A sweet and loving family photo. I have no father nor father-in-law now but they are in our hearts.
what an awesome photograph!
these days, i cant read anything pertaining to father children or watch any movie with father daughter relationships without turning all slobbery and soppy.

My dear, thank you for sharing this about your Dad. Like everyone else, I am tearing up now and thanking God I still have my Dad around still. I want to be a better son and spend more time with Mom & Dad, not just on certain days of the year.
You made me realise that once they are gone, all I will have are memories, and I'm not ready for that yet.
I miss my Grandad so much, and it's over ten years already since he left us. Time takes away so much from us, but it makes it all the more important that we hold on to what we have while we still have it.
I guess I'm rambling now, so I better stop now. But thank you. *big hug*
Kenny : Glad to know this post is doing some good, reminding us all :o)
Dear wmw, as what firehorse, he will always be with you. Me too I miss my dad truely, 2years now since he passed away.
bigboysoven:That's what we all can do, keep their memories alive...
