Happy Father's Day 2017
Happy Father's Day ... I miss my Father ... this year is 20 yrs.
He left this realm too soon but with a life that had been well lived.
Compassionate, fair, funny and well liked by people he always had a little bit
of self doubt ... and I guess his Aries self was constantly in pursuit of how
to make him/it better.
He was a craftsman enjoying his woodworking and having his shop.
He made such beautiful pieces. I always loved going in his shop to hang out and
smell the saw dust shavings.
He was a disciplinarian ... "remember this is not a
democracy, this is a dictatorship ... and if you would like for me to be
benevolent dictator ... please do what I ask. Now." 😌 And my biggest fan ... my siblings biggest fan.
He made time in his
"busi-ness" to place not only his marriage & his wife but his
family as priority while being a respected business person. From my theatre
gigs, to Gregg Stone's sports, to Claudine Harding Andrews dance recitals he was there usually
coming directly from work.
Many ladies called him the "Silver Fox" and my gay
boyfriends = 😛 "THAT'S your Dad?" LOL. Polite, modest and rather
dashing, he was my own Cary Grant. He didn't do it alone, my Mother was his
co-pilot and his trusted companion.
I have done some really shitty things in my life ... and I try
to live with less regret every day. My Dad loved me, anyway and I miss hearing
"Hey Mouse, what's up?" I miss that more now than ever before. 🙁
My brother is a terrific Father and has grown into the man he is
with the help of many but mostly, my sister-in-law, Kristen Conroy Harding. I love him and his
family, deeply. 🤘🖖😘
If your Dad is still living in
this world, call him or go give him a hug.

Mahalo. ✌️
