I want to share my Father/Daughter story:
When I was 11 years old, my Girl Scout Troop hosted a Father/Daughter trip on a paddle boat on the Ohio River. I remember they played music for dancing and my Dad, very formally, asked me to dance with him. After the dance we walked around the boat, and he explained to me how the paddle helped the boat go through the water, explained the way the rudder worked, and taught me a variety of other things about the boat, the Ohio River, barges loaded with coal passing the paddle boat. From the river trip we went to the museum at Marietta, Ohio and we spent a very delightful day together. I was a sleepy, young lady, when we finally arrived home that evening and now, as a 60 year old grandma, that memory is still very precious to me.
The Father’s Day memory I want to share for my daughter Renee is a priceless one from 1995. Renee was very ill with Cystic Fibrosis and our insurance company had denied her an evaluation for a double lung transplant. As the end of May drew near, Renee told me she knew she probably wasn’t going to live much longer and she wanted to have a special gift for her Daddy for Father’s Day. She made lots of phone calls from her hospital bed until she located a Mont-Blanc pen and pencil set that was in her price range. She called me and begged me to get it for her, and I did. A day later, we were given an air ambulance trip to Duke University for a transplant evaluation, that was May 24th, 1995, and Renee died Friday May 26th, 1995. That year for Father’s Day her Daddy got the pen and pencil set selected specially for him by his little girl.
