Happy Father's Day Dad!





~ Dedicated to my Father ~




There is a special bond between a young woman and the first man she ever loves...her Daddy!



Hoosier Daddy!  

My Dad was born and raised in Indiana, a true Hoosier. He moved to a couple of other states, but always and eventually went back to Indy. (singing ... "back home again in Indiana" )  Dad is that guy who is always a friend to everyone, I don't think he has ever met a stranger or at least they weren't one for long.  He's a simple man and likes things simple, as in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!"  Don't be a changing things on him either, "it's fine the way it is!"   I see so much of him in me and in my appearance, he can't deny I'm his for sure! I do remember thinking he looked like Elvis when he and I were younger.  Dark hair, blue eyes, and tall, "Tall, Dark and Handsome!"... and he can sing and play the guitar too!   He shared life with four females (Mom and us three girls) and has managed to survive that without losing his mind!  He is quite the character though, and always has been.  He makes me laugh with his amusing humor.  Well I suppose life with four females one would need a good sense of humor for sure, lots of patience, and just might question their own sanity from time to time!   I'm very grateful to have had this gentle giant in my life and he has always been one of the people I look up to the most!    He's many things, a son, a father, an uncle, a grandfather, a great grandfather, and a friend.  He's my 'Pops' to me!

Dad,
I can't thank you enough for all that you have given to me all of my life and for being a good father, always protecting and looking out for me, and wanting only the best for me always!  
Thanks so much Dad for all you have done and all that you are! 
You're the best DAD!
I LOVE YOU!
~Tammy~
