Happy Father's Day!

[Georgie]

Only in spirit. My dad's been gone for 23 years now. Died way too early at age 60. But like you and so many others out there I have great memories. Crabbing in the river, raking "shedders" out of the surf on a summer evening, Sunday drives with the Dodgers game playing on the radio and backyard bar-b-cues. My dad was a cop and believe it or not, I can still remember how it felt to hug him when he came home from work; the cool, hard feel of his badge and buttons and the smell of cigars mixed with peppermint gum.
