     I hope you all are able to enjoy a great day with your families. I think
about my Dad a often and miss him alot. I can only hope that I have some of
the impact on my kids that he did on me.

    If they think of me on Father's Day the way I do fo him...I'll be a happy
guy.

All the best,
Kevin Gallagher/Omega Guitars

Kevin,

Happy Fathers Day to you too!

I’ll be enjoying a fine day with my boys, and my lovely wife.

BTW, What I know about you from reading your posts, is you’re a very conscientious person,
and there is no doubt in my mind that your children think very highly of you.
So, be happy! Life is good!

Robert

I'm right with you, Kevin. I lost my father three years ago and, to me, there wasn't a better man to be found. Tell your dad you love him, often. There is nothing on this earth more important than family.

Fathers day is special to me, because as a daughter, I did not see my father for 20 years due to an acrimonious divorce; and my mother prevented us from seeing him. For 20 years I grew up and got on with my life without my wonderful dad being around.

Well, thanks to an old email address I left on Friends Reunited (one that I NEVER check...but when I did one day, his email was TWO days old!), my father contacted me three years ago...and has visted us numerous times.

Needless to say, he a a fantastic bloke whom I love dearly, my husband gets on really well with him...and I have just got back from a wonderful weekend visit.

Hah, it was kinda mindblowing for him when he found out he was a grandfather of three kids!!!

Happy Father's Day!!

Sam,

That was a wonderful story of your reunion with your father. I was moved, and, though I don’t
know you personally, it made me feel so good to know, that you felt so good about your renewed
relationship with your father. I have had a similar experience, but, not quite as satisfying.
Be that as it may, I have a stepfather that is every bit of what a father should be, and I consider
myself to be very fortunate for it to have worked out that way!

With that, I’ll be giving him a call later on, and let him know how much I care!

Thanks again Sam for sharing that with us!

Robert
