My dad was a Golden Gloves boxer in in the 40s and 50s and went on to coach and manage the rest of his life. He took side jobs along the way, like Seattle Sheriff, and body guard to evangelist Billy Graham. He even had a local TV show that taught young boys boxing, coordination and self-esteem. He was also an accomplished artist.

I have a web site i created in his honor and every few months hear from old students of his.

Happy Father's Day dad.

Jodi, what a lovely tribute to you Dad, and what an inspiration he must have been to the youth of his day. His story lives on for today's youth because you care so much

What has entertained me during some recent cool rainy days.

My dad and me: Cheaha State Park, Al
He and mother were married 53 years.

Jodi I remember your posts about your dad going to visit and save the web link

Back from vacation. 11 days in Niagara Falls, Toronto and Ottawa. Unfortunately we had mostly rain in Niagara Falls and Toronto but made the most of it anyway and spent most of the time out sightseeing on sunny days.

Happy Father's Day, Daddy. I miss you so much every day.
