Remembering Dads (Dan H.)

in THE MAIN WALL
Growing up in that era brings back memories of how Dad's were. It took years for my Dad to show affection but he never had a problem being tough. He was never mean but once he took a stand he held his ground. Presently he is 81 and what bothers me most is seeing his lack of physical strength, a man my sisters friends as teenagers called Jack after Jack Lalaine the then TV physical fitness guru.

    in today's Wall Street Journal. It's about a tough Dad. Reminds me of mine.

    Thank you Dan!

    Wow! While the specifics are different, I could have written that artical myself.

    I fowarded that to all my brothers and sisters. (six of them)

    After losing a son this year, it will be difficult. I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Very Happy Fathers Day!

    Great Story

    Sends me back. In my mind I can still hear my Mother, and feel the anxiety as she said in times of trouble, "Just wait til your Father gets home." :O I'm lucky he's still with us. WW
