Dad had three rules; no skipping school, be respectful to others [especially to Mother], and above all be an honest person. Moreover, any discipline I received was due to an infraction to one of these rules. As a rebellious teen, on many occasions I caused him embarrassment and shame. However, as an adult, I had the privilege of talking to him many years later and emphatically apologizing for my adolescent behavior and he said that this is a good day! He had already forgiven me! Frankly, it was not until I had teens of my own before I understood his unselfish motives. Dad, I love you and will miss you until we meet again in Heaven. Your loving Son, David
