2017 Fathers Day

All these pictures help tell this great story.

I took the picture on the front in Mexico fifteen years ago. I remember taking it and thinking about you, thinking about your hands and how strong I remember them as a child. All the times I remember being led and glad you were my leader.

I remember meeting you in Montana. I love that you followed God through your life, that you built churches both figuratively and actually., I love that you have taught the word of God. I love that you took care of my mother with such tenderness, care and love for such a long time.

I love that you are and adventurer. You have set the pace for my life helping me see a world full of possibilities. You taught me not to be afraid, to stretch to go into the unknown. I am deeply grateful.

You have a military side, but you have a quiet tender side. I love that you told me that you loved me, that you hugged me, and that you cared about me. I love that you raised to cats by hand. I love that you treated my wife and children with compassion and love.

I love that you have found an abundance of love in your life. If all I knew about you is that you found Wanda, then I would know enough about you to know that you are a sterling man of character.

“Happy Father’s Day” is really directed at me. I’m so happy I have you as my father. It’s a Happy Father's Day.
