Throughout June, we’ll be highlighting the men and boys whose stories, milestones, and presence continue to leave a mark on our family and community.

I grew up as a Daddy’s girl, partly because we are born under the same sign of Gemini which comes lovingly with gifts and challenges that we both share and therefore get each other. I am undeniably the fruit of this tree. My father came from humble beginnings and built an extraordinary life for us. I am blessed and privileged to be a direct beneficiary of his hard work and sacrifice. And profoundly grateful to be on this journey as his daughter. I wouldn’t be who I am today without his love and support. Funny, Intelligent, Witty, Hardworking, Talented, Caring and Dog-loving. I am truly grateful that I chose him as a Father.
