What a beautiful tribute to a father who led with quiet strength and unwavering love. The lessons he left you with, grit, fairness, and heart, are the kind that echo for generations. I hope your Father’s Day is filled with sweet memories and a few good hook shots in his honor.

Thanks Danny. You will be one of the few readers who actually knew him :)

I'm sure you experienced his love of sports in one way or another.

I used to visit in the summer, when, save for the Denver Bears, not much was happening in the local sports world but I do remember some friendly Jets-Broncos banter. Mostly I remember your Dad’s solidity — a good decent loving man. Oh and I remember his davening each morning — something I hadn’t had exposure to and that was awesome to me.
