Happy Father's Day to Forum Fathers
My own thoughts... | 06/19/2005 | DoughtyOne

Posted on 06/19/2005 9:13:29 AM PDT by DoughtyOne

I didn't want to be guilty of letting this day pass without a special salute to the fathers on this forum.

All too often Dad's are the invisible champions in our society. If they are portrayed in the media, they are most generally used as the butt of jokes or a prop to make someone else look superior.

This is your day Dads. Thanks for stepping up and taking on the challenge.

I'd like to see this thread used by folks to champion their fathers, spouses, brothers or other special dads that have made a difference in your life, the lives of other family members or even friends.

I'll be back in a few hours to place my thoughts about my own dad here. By then I hope to see many heartwarming stories about other great dads.

Right now I'm off to see my wife's dad. This afternoon I'll be seeing my own. In-between, I'll place some comments here about my own dad.

Happy Father's Day!

Sorry things started our rough Don-O. I am very glad that both of you had closure. That is something. Many don't have that. Take care bud. I'll bet you're a great dad.

I'm jealous! Where's mine?

I'm going to have to scold the young'ns.

Happy Father's Day to you, and Grandparents Day as well.
