LOVE YOU, DAD!

Whether he taught you how to hammer a nail without
hitting your thumb, throw a football in the backyard, or
told you your very first bedtime story, it is only with the
fondest of memories that we think of our fathers. Once
we thought he was the biggest, strongest man alive, and
that he could solve every problem that ever came along.
As children, winning his attention was worth the effort.
And, as we grew older, earning his respect — though
more of a job — was a triumph in itself. The man we
affectionately call Dad gave us more than life. He gave
us a sense of who we are, and how we should act with
dignity and honesty. We are ever grateful for his attention
and patience as a teacher; his concern and love as a
parent, and his helpfulness as a friend. Each Father's
Day, we want him to know how much we care, but we
should also remember and honor him the rest of the year
as well. To express our special appreciation for Dad, the
U.S. Postal Service has issued a particularly meaningful
No. 87-16
