Editor’s note
Dear Colleagues,
As June rolls around, let us keep in mind the important date it brings: Father’s Day. Isn’t it a perfect coincidence that Father’s Day also falls in the same month as Men’s Health Month? We may conclude that June is a perfect month to celebrate and appreciate the fathers, future fathers, and father figures in our lives.
This year, Father’s Day is on Sunday, June 19, 2022; a day to honor fatherhood and paternal bonds, as well as the influence of fathers in society.
For all the times we may have left it unsaid, thank you for being there, for showing the way, for being patient, for your encouragement, and for being an inspiring presence for those who look up to you.
Happy Father’s Day from the Newsline team!
