Dad taught me so much by his example. He was kind and honest; he spoke his truth with love. He always asked permission to give advice, saying “Do you mind if I give you some advice”? I always accepted, because he asked so gently, and because he was a very smart man with good advice! Dad taught me to make lists of pros and cons when making decisions, and to follow my head. While I was growing up, Dad did his fair share of the household chores, and did not have a chauvinistic bone in his body. When I was an adult, he gave me the gift of his time at our numerous one-on-one lunches, where he always picked up the tab. Dad was a self-proclaimed numbers person, and I will always be proud to be his “number 5” child. I will hold his memory and his influence in my heart like a treasure for the rest of my days. I love you Dad!
