That Father’s Day, sixteen years since Dad died, I heard him heckle when I missed foul shots, laugh when I threw elbows, and cheer when I backed someone down. When I worried about missed opportunities, I recalled his “don’t worry about what’s over and done.” And, when I noticed the 85+-year-old men playing on a neighboring court, I imagined Dad and his killer hook shot in their midst. Too bad I didn’t get that gene!

It was a great Games with Phoenix! You and your family were an important part. What a joy to have them there with you!
Reading this reminded me how much my own father had to do with me being there. Thanks for writing it.
