Today is September 7, my dad’s 84th birthday.  I am so lucky that he is still with us to celebrate this day.  My dad is a really special man.  A WWII veteran, he grew up in an era when men had dignity and class.  They took care of their families no matter what and were protective of anyone who would mess with them.  My dad still loves to garden, fish and play his trumpet.  He spends hours arranging music on his computer and is pretty darn good with technology for someone his age.  My dad is my hero and a breed of gentleman that is very rare to find nowadays.  I wish my dad a spectacular birthday and even better year as he embarks upon another year of living life to the fullest and being an anchor and role model for a family that loves him deeply!

Happy Birthday Dad!
