Father Knows Best

My father is a very good memory in my mind, He was very handsome and tall. Always very kind and understanding, He mentored our love of God and the church. Educated my brother Tom and I to become teachers, My brother is a secondary school teacher . I am an elementary school teacher, Received my twenty-five year award. My youngest son Erik was my escort for the dinner, My oldest son Kirk was at university. Father married my beautiful mother Dr. Erika, He became Dr. Wolf at the University of Toronto at Mississauga. When Walter and my son, Kirk married the beautiful Jenn at a Muskoka Resort, Father placed the sacred scarf on Kirk and Jenn. What an exquisite wedding that was and they are blessed with two beautiful children Maya and Merrick. I wish Kirk a very Happy Father's Day with his children Maya and Merrick and his wife jenn, Good wishes to my divorced husband Walter, The good years living with our sons Kirk and Erik. We wish my brother Tom a Happy Father's Day with his children Patrick and Frieda and his wife Gail, Happy Father's Day to Michael, Esme, Evan and his beautiful wife Antje. We remember the beautiful years with father, The years at the cottage in the summer. Swims at the fitness institute, Living in the big house with my relatives. Good of father to make room for us, We remember the children's father, Walter. The responsibilities of father are usually many, We thank him with love and gratitude. The good years at the cottage with our parents, These are God's kind many blessings. Author: Gwen von Erlach Schutz.
