1. Having had the thrill of excitement from our children as they wished me a happy Father's Day.
2. The joy of wrapping my arms around my dear Dad nearing 80, who, in the grip of Alzheimers was able to receive my fond hugs, wishes, and kiss for Father's Day, and having him recognize me and remember my name and that of my wife.
3. Sharing my most sincere wish for our son Nick to understand he, too, is a Father who deserves the grace of God for being a loving father although his baby now rests in the arms of God, a little angel among the great numbers of those who precede us into heaven.
4. The love of those 'round about us who care so much for each of the needs of others whose pain overwhelms them.

Mark56
