My father taught me a lot about love.  He taught me that love means having genuine concern for the other person whether it be, you mother and father, your children, your brother or sister or just the old lady down the street.  He treated everyone he met with respect.  He used to tell me “If you can’t do someone a good turn never do them a bad one.”  He also told me “Never let the sun go down on an arguament.”  He was not embarrassed about showing his love in public. He devoted his life to making sure that his wife and children (and there were six of us) knew without doubt that we were loved and appreciated.  He also told me that “love is the one thing you can give that costs nothing just a little effort.” I hope that I have lived up to my fathers expectations.
