I'm proud to call my Father, Dad. He has taught me the way of the world in business, life and love.
Dad is a family man all the way. Family to him is his "best friends". Dad, even though he was always in business showed my sister and I the USA World. I was fortunate to visit all 50 States, and many countries around our beautiful world. I do have to admit I missed a ton of school as Dad felt the best education came from seeing the places in person. I was able to relate to so much more while sitting in church after visiting the Holy Land, gotta say Dad had a vision, even though the teachers thought they could teach geography, history and life in general from a class room better then seeing it in real life. I was able to talk in depth about the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, and Europe as the teachers were text booking the entire world tour to us as students.
Dad and Mom continued the teaching trips with our children starting at the ages of 3 years old. Summer would arrive and off on a two month road trip with all four grand kids. I think about that today with our grand kids and am amazed on the time, effort and money that had to cost Mom & Dad. But to them it was all about education, even though the kids thought it was a vacation. How cool!
Dad, you are the Rock in my World. Your strength, support and Love are out of this World. It's Dad's World!
You are the best, I love you with all my heart, and Thanks for having me, without you I would never be.
Love Me
