Happy Father's Day, Daddy!  I miss you so much!

What wonderful childhood memories I have of waiting for you to come home for lunch at noon on those lazy summer days.

 Then, watching the Braves baseball games, Gunsmoke, Have Gun Will Travel, and wrestling every Saturday afternoon and evening.  Oh, I can't forget Bonanza!

You brought home new puppies for me to love!  Let's see....Buster, Rusty, my own Lassie, and Chris.  You loved them as much as I did.  Now, the two fur babies you left with me are sleeping at my feet as I type.

I loved to watch you make things.  You took a piece of wood and turned it into a work of art.  

My list of "remembers" could go on forever!

But, most of all, I remember your smile and the safety I felt from your hugs.

Hug Mom for me and rejoice in your rest on this Father's Day!
