Fathers Day and my FAVORITE sister’s birthday!  We had  a yummy fish fry at my mom and dads…deep fried french fries, salad and ice cream cake…a tradition that my Opa (grandpa) started!

Here is a picture of Opa & my sister from the early eighties.

I can remember as a little girl all of our uncles being so excited for the ‘fish fry’.  It’s always perch and Grandpa/Opa always pays!  It seemed fitting to carry on this tradition as this was our first Fathers Day with out my Opa.  This month was also my Oma’s birthday and their anniversary, all firsts with out them in our lives.

This is tradition, but what is their legacy?  They have taught us to love God, appreciate our family and to help those in need.  Its for the gift of a great legacy that we want to thank them!
