Today our family celebrates the Papa. I am particularly thankful for a father who introduced me to good music, food, drink, to travel, the outdoors, reading and learning. I am thankful for a father who let me have the first sip of a foamy beer at dinner, who taught me how to play pool, who challenged me to excellence in all I do and who took me to my first electric rock concert at age 5. However it is his presence that I'm thankful for the most, as well as his willingness to preach the Gospel to his family daily. Thanks Pop. Love you!
