June is a busy time of year with graduations, weddings, showers, Christenings and end of the year school celebrations. But don't let yourself be too busy to forget the one who taught you to ride a bike, tie your shoes and said "yes" when mom just said "no." Yes, dear old dad.
Let's face it, not many had Ward Cleaver or Mike Brady as a dad. Some grew up without a father or were raised by a step-father, grandparent, or uncle. But if you were lucky enough to have a man in your life who took care of you, take this day to let him know you care.
But what could we possibly get him that he doesn't already have? The best Father's Day gift we could give our dads is the gift of love, thanks, and time. He already has enough golf shirts and ties. But if that's his thing, Brookfield has plenty of places to pick one up.
