My Dad has been on my mind a lot lately, mostly because of the 70th anniversary of D-Day just recently.  He was part of that great invasion and as I’ve mentioned before, was later captured and held as a POW inside Germany until the end of the war. 

We’ll be celebrating Father’s Day this weekend.  My father was a special man, full of personality, laughter and warmth.  After I moved away from home, my dad wrote me a letter, one I treasure to this day.  It was filled with love and wisdom as I ventured into the world.  I tucked it inside the pages of my diary and have kept it all these years.  It’s one of the most beautiful love letters I’ve ever received.  Thank you, Dad.  I hope you’re celebrating Father’s Day in heaven.
