Unfortunately I didn't get to see him too much as he worked nights in the City, and was gone when we came home from school. He was handsome and so very cool. Knew the best of them. Thanks, Micki, I needed to reminisce. Love you!

Does this let me off the hook? ;)Penelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15076629820163587646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937578189437367147.post-40371734603377384602014-06-11T18:33:17.751-07:002014-06-11T18:33:17.751-07:00Hi Lori,

Happy to have you visit.<br /><br />Micki<br /><br />Sandra, thanks for your comments. I bet your husband is quite happy about not getting a tie lol.<br /><br />Micki<br /><br />Pat, I'm so happy you had a great relationship with your father. It means so much. I never knew my birth father and my relationship with my step-father was ups and downs.<br /><br />Micki<br /><br />Cherrye, I 'm so sorry you lost your father at 55. I almost died of the same thing at 56. But you're passing on his memories to your daughter and that's so important. Thanks for sharing my words.<br /><br />Micki<br /><br />Raani,<br />I'm glad you liked this post and am so very sorry for your own loss. I hope this post reminded you of him in all good ways with a smile on your face.<br /><br />Micki<br /><br />Micki Peluso is the author of "And the Whippoorwill Sang"https://www.blogger.com/profile/14286402859989726344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937578189437367147.post-71012740051784286232014-06-11T17:14:28.015-07:002014-06-11T17:14:28.015-07:00This is a wonderful article, Micki.

I'm sorry I'm commenting so late, but I was on vacation... <br />Unfortunately I've lost my father 17 years ago, but I still miss him - and your post reminded me of him strongly.

I wish I'd been more thoughtful of my own father on this date because he was a great man/person. <br /><br />We lost our Dad to heart problems back in 1989 at a young age of 55. This year I'll be 55 and it doesn't seem to be so old, but back them I thought he was "old." Oh, how we miss him.<br /><br />Now, I can help my young daughter pay better and honorable tribute to her Super Dad. Thanks for sharing this very important blog. <br /><br />For those reading this blog, if you have a great Dad, shower him with love while it's day.<br /><br />I love this post so much, I'll share with others on my network.<br /><br />Cherrye S.

He wasn't a big talker. A quiet man, he planted within me the seeds of endurance and perseverance. <br /><br />So, I enjoyed reading your article. I must say that I am delighted that Father's Day exist and have nothing but praise for Mrs. Dodd and her initiative to praise her own father for keeping his family together.<br /><br />Shalolm,<br />PatriciaPat Garciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04204650731843984192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937578189437367147.post-67973636189805663662014-06-10T22:17:24.160-07:002014-06-10T22:17:24.160-07:00A well-written and informative post that I enjoyed...A well-written and informative post that I enjoyed. My husband and I will get together with our son and his family and share a meal. But since my husband is now retired, he definitely won't get a tie for Father's Day!Sandra Nachlingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16906884446237370105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2937578189437367147.post-58021822406970434952014-06-10T20:11:54.076-07:002014-06-10T20:11:54.076-07:00So true, Micki.
