Wish I had half the dedication and a quarter of the athletic fortitude

Yep, that is a good father.  I often think about the girl's dad in the video below...  how he stayed right with his daughter thru every moment of her tragedy... another example of a good dad.

That's one of the reasons I absolutely hate drunk drivers.

I had a chance to meet them a couple of years ago and it was a wake up call to me and several other men in our sunday school class to not let a moment go without taking time for our wives, children and families. After I met him work didn't seem to hold that much importance and neither did this game and many others. In this screwed up world we live and work in many times we bypass all those moments with our loved ones and say "I'll do it later." To bad that for many of us that later point never happens.

This man has been an inspiration to me and many others that I know and he is a measuring stick for how I will live my life with my family now.
