Who was P.R. Thompson’s Dad?

  • The guy who, most of the time, loved my mother.
  • The guy who was always there whether I needed him or not.
  • The guy who never said no when me or my sisters needed repairs at home. Or help. 
  • The guy who always showed me the right way and did not enable my wrong ways.
  • The guy who built, repaired, searched, and rescued.
  • The guy who got up to pee several times at night.
  • The guy who never left home without a clean-shaven face and handkerchief.
  • An old-fashioned, unapologetic man. A provider and a protector.
