Lovely tribute to your wonderful Dad and to awesome Wiley, Dear Kabu

I imagine your Dad really let 'em have it!

This Trump stuff has a lot of women, including myself, recalling encounters with horrid, non men creeps like the D, things we've tried to bury and forget but in actuality, they aren't ever too far from the surface; sigh.

Dads have a special bond with their daughters and your post is a wonderful example of the same.

He was a really good man, I have seen his photograph and could tell. He looked honorable. I wonder what he said to those Yobbo's though.

Its such a treasured relationship. Dads are the first man a child encounters in their lives and making an impression like your dad did is a precious thing. You always feel their protective cloak around you keeping you warm

My Dad took care of things like that too.  There was a creepy man in our neighborhood who took a liking to my mother and began to stalk her.  When Dad found out about it, the man never came around again.  Dad did not physically assault him, but he didn't have to.

Your dad was a wonderful man, making sure to protect his daughter...It is sad how street harassment, as it's called, exists.

Amen, and amen! That is a high standard from your Dad, & worth for any so

inspired, to be calm, collected, and effective. shalom, shalom dear friend. You have a wealth in treasured memories. I love Australia because of the mix of old-fashioned and modernity. Blessings

What a great dad - a champ among men... If every dad was like yours,

there'd be fewer young men who act like females are fair game.

We always remember people for what they leave behind. Your memories of your dad brought him alive with your praise
