Hooray for Fathers
Just to set the record straight, unless I have messed up again ( I have already lost all of the pictures once), here are pictures of the fathers in the family plus some of their loved ones. Norda and I want you all to know how much we love each of you.

Neal Maxwell wrote the following: "A father who loves his children, and who is truly striving, for instance, to become a better man, sends off to his children all kinds of messages, in a variety of ways, that let them know he loves them and that he is a serious disciple of Jesus Christ. Then his children can more easily forgive him the tactical errors, because his basic message is intact: he believes in God and he cares for his family."
And may it ever be so!
And may it ever be so!
Dad, thanks for the perfect Father's Day post. I love the pictures especially the first one. Classic. Of course, it all starts at the top (i.e. you) with a loving, hard working father setting the standard and showing the rest of us the correct way. For that, I'll be eternally grateful.
