THIS FATHER'S DAY

I came across a video called called "Tell Them Now" in honour of Father's Day. You can see it below. The video's title struck me. 



My father
Howard Pickup
You see, when I was sixteen years old, my father died of a fatal heart attack while we were downhill skiing. I only had about a minute to tell him I love him before he closed his eyes to slip into eternity. I didn't tell him that I loved him (although he knew it). It haunted me for years.

Since that winter day, more than forty-five years ago, I have made a point of often telling my wife, children and grandchildren I love them.  

If your father is still alive, show him and tell him you love him while there's still time. Show love to all your family; tell them often how much you love them.
