I last did a thread like this two years ago for Father's Day:

There was another thread a few years before that too, and they are both tearjerkers. I always get a bit sentimental and melancholy this time of year. Father's Day is Sunday and the 25th will be the 6th anniversary of his death. It's hard to believe it has been six years.
Who is/was your father, be it birth, adopted or father of your heart?
My father was a milkman. Yep, a door-to-door bringing the milk in glass bottles milkman. He loved his job. Years later you could be driving down a road with him and he could tell you which houses he delivered milk to and what their order normally was. He was born as one of 13 children to a French Canadian mother and father and they were very proud of their heritage. He loved his three kids and always worried about us. He had seven grandchildren that he adored. I think of him very often and my husband and I were just talking about him yesterday. We had a new roof put on the house this week and if he were still alive he would have come over with a lawn chair and watched the show. :lol3:
