You are one lucky woman to have such a fine father. From reading this piece, I believe you already know that. BJ

What a delightful, well-constructed and beautifully written tribute to your father, Ginger! In addition to the life lessons I learned from my own father, I have learned so much from Clyde and my sister Gail. I've always considered him the brother I didn't have otherwise. Carol

Great tribute to a great dad. I remember coming home from school one day. Dad's car was in the drive. When I walked in the house I noticed the light was out in the bedroom and dad asleep on the bed with work clothes on. For dad to beat me home was very unusal and I was concerned. It wasn't until later I learned dad had a piece of steel inbeded in his eye. Working in the oil field was rough.
