Birthday of My Wife's Father

R-eminiscing the day he was born
I-nduces joyfulness to his heart; 
C-elebrating eleventh January morn
A-dds bliss to his emotional part.
R-eunion of each family member 
D-elights them as they gather together;
O-ne cheerful occasion is held on the birthday of my wife's father.

Right on, Bernard. : ) My father-in-law was named Charles, after his father, Carlo, a first generation immigrant to the U.S. from Italy. He did not have it easy, and was not always a good father to his children, including my wife. Yet he is really missed.
