My father announced his retirement this afternoon, and called me about it today. I’m glad it was his decision, and is what he wants. He’s a great guy, and it’s pretty lame that I don’t tell him that more often. When I look at myself, I think most of the really good stuff that’s there is due to him in one way or another. I worshipped him as a kid. He may not have known it at the time. As I got older, I found myself time and time again judging myself by standards that were set by him. Here’s wishing you the best in your retirement Dad. You certainly have worked hard as long as I’ve known you:-)
