Just took my husband to the airport (he'll be in your neck of the woods for the next two weeks, Jeff--mostly Melville, L.I.), so we did Father's Day yesterday. I'll be calling my Dad later--so glad he's still with us, aware and able to get around. My father-in-law passed away six years ago; I know my husband misses him.

My Dad died in 1972 and I still miss him. Sigh. Happy Father's Day to Phil.
Yes, missing mine quite a bit yesterday and today
Three and a half years for me.
Happy Father's Day to all!
Al, I loved meeting you. thanks so much for coming.
Patti, I read your story "Father's Day" at Spinetingler today. I enjoyed it very much. I liked the characterization especially.
Thanks very much, Tracy. Had forgotten that one entirely.
What a lovely tribute!
