What does Fathers Day mean to you?

By Glenda Scott

Madie

A pleasant young lady who works for a local drugstore feels good about Fathers Day. Her dad knows that he is loved and she hopes to see him on this special day in June.

Andreas

He and his wife are academics visiting Victoria for the weekend. They hope to retire here, sooner rather than later. When his Father was alive they did celebrate the day. Andreas is the stepfather of two children and acknowledges this secondary place with love and understanding.

Maureen

Fathers Day makes her very sad. Her dad died when she was young. She remembers him with precious memories, much love and, to this day she misses him.
