Fathers Day

FATHERS DAY Father of nine children, three girls and six boys, who called him Papa. Attentive and very caring grandfather of twenty four, who called him Lolo. Talented musician, played multiple instruments and sang excellently. Hospitable and treated every guest with smile and enthusiasm. Entertained our family and the Lions Club with his tango, mambo, hula. Reliable father, grandfather, officer and member of the Lions Club. Sincere in helping out, feeding the homeless and raising money for charity. Devout person, dedicated in church activities like singing in the choir. Admirable in dancing the hula with grass skirt and bra made of coconut shells. Yes, he had been gone for seven years; but he is and will always be on my mind. 5/20/21 A Tribute To Fathers Poetry L Milton Hankins Used: PS Grammar Checker
