Fathers' Day is definitely a semi-melancholy holiday, my second without Greg. Even though our boys are grown, it's hard being a lone parent -- nobody to share the pride and worries and memories. I think it was wonderful the way Greg invented fatherhood for himself, since he grew up without a Dad in the picture. And it was tragic that by the time the kids were in the most difficult part of adolescence, Greg's dementia had set in. I really wish he could see them now -- Jeffrey in uniform, Matthew in a loving relationship. I wish they could see him as he was twenty years ago, delighted to be a dad!
