My dad is still alive & I try to tell him, regularly, how much he means to me. He set me an example of responsibility, love, & commitment. He & my mom have seen me through good times & bad & have been generous w/ help & self-controlled w/ advice. One of the things I see in myself that I believe is a reflection of my dad is the ability to be an appreciative, supportive audience member. I can picture, in my mind, the look of delight on his face & his enthusiastic applause & I know that I share that commitment to support others.

I love you, Dad!
