many lessons that I carry with me today as a father of soon-to-be two girls. When my mom died, some twenty-five years ago, my tough factory-working man was left to be part mother, part father, part provider, and forever a life-guide.
From that moment, faced with raising two boys, aged ten and seven, dad did everything he could to provide us with a stable and loving environment. 
He taught us to work hard, to make a difference, to give to those less fortunate, even though we had little ourselves. 
My dad taught us to love family. He always said that while we didn't have much, we had each other. 
He taught me that unless I went to school, got an education and a good job, I'd be working the night shift in that pipe factory. That is why the minute after I turned 15 he made sure that every summer I had a job in that factory and I learned the value of a dollar.
As dad put it, unless you finish school, you too will work nights and a lot of weekend shifts and overtime just to make ends meat. He wanted my brother and I to learn that despite the factory providing him a decent living, he wanted more for his two sons. Dad wanted us to have offices, and a nice house, to wear a suit to work as he put it and to come home clean. 
I remember my first paycheck, I wanted to go out and spend it, but dad said put some in the bank, remember you have university to pay for, and the rest, well, make sure you go split that with your brother. 
Dad always imparted that if one person had something then the rest should also have. That was the lesson of charity that my father taught us when I myself didn't understand what charity truly meant. 
My dad died five years ago and never got the chance to meet my children but his memory lives on and all the lessons he taught me live on in them. I love you Dad.
