As time goes on, the one memory that lasts is the advice he gave you. I can still hear my father's voice in my head when I'm trying to make a decision. He had a way of seeing through the BS and boiling it down to the truth
Father's Day is special for me, both as a dad to my 12-year-old twins Lennon and Albert and as a son who lost his father, Albert, in 2015 at the age of 92.
If you are one of those military dads, thank you so much for your service and your sacrifice. You probably don't hear it enough. We'd be nothing without you.
