Re: Russ, as far as I have known you (online) you have always had top drawer character and behavior. In fact, I admit I have learned a great deal from you over the years. Responsibility is something the younger -- DeeDee	Post Reply	Top of thread	Forum

Dee,

My older brother and I often discussed Dad's influence on us. We agreed that the two most important things we got from him were:

1 - Never break your word.

2 - Always take responsibility for what you do.

Those were Gospel to him.

The decision to take responsibility for my son was totally mine. It was not directed by him. His concluding comment was, "I will be very interested to see what you decide to do about it."

Dad had a 6th grade education, but God gave him a lot of wisdom to compensate.

Take care,

Russ
