Happy Father’s Day to the Dads! I hope you have some fun planned for this weekend to celebrate.

My own dad passed away in early 2006 but I still miss him and think of him each day. My dad and I were very close – he actually lived with me for the last several years of his life after my mom died. I shared the eulogy I gave at his memorial service on my Facebook profile. If you’re fortunate enough to still have your father around and you will be seeing him, give him an extra hug!

Up ahead: some reading for the weekend!
