Fathers Day

Facing my dad, who stood by mom’s side Attentively. They were the definition of love. Took care of us. We’d have dinner at 5:00, imagine! He left the loving and conversation up to mom Except for now — it’s amazing the stories he tells. Relying on his memory, hoping for his Soul to find love and peace in God. Dad with unrelenting tears, now knows how much All his kids love him. Just like him, we’re not going anywhere. You can bet we’ll surround him on his bittersweet day. 5/13/2021 A TRIBUTE TO FATHERS Sponsor : L Milton Hankins

This describes so many fathers "He left the loving and conversation up to mom" But I bet he will step up to the plate and knock the conversation ball out of the park now.
