Happy Father's Day
June 17, 2012
I hope you and your dad will be able to have a good celebration today.
So many families live in different communities. Skype may be the main way many dads and kids see each other today.
I've been thinking about my dad a lot lately, especially when I've been planting my garden and working in my yard. My dad passed nearly 22 years ago.
We thought he would live a long time like his older brothers and sisters. My mom had diabetes so we thought she would leave us first. However, she outlived him 15 years.
My dad, a farmer, died from non-Hodgkins lymphome, which is linked to pesticide exposure.
You can be sure I don't use any pesticides in my yard.
Best wishes on Father's Day.
