Before we start I would like to deliver this quote I stumbled upon while looking for inspiration online that resonated with me. My father taught my siblings and me the importance of positive values and a strong ethical compass. He showed us how to be resilient, how to deal with challenges, and how to strive for excellence in all that we do. He taught us that there's nothing that we cannot accomplish if we marry vision and passion with an enduring work ethic. We are all gathered here to celebrate our parents but I am here to highlight the importance of our fathers and the fatherly figures in their accomplishments in raising us, their strength in protecting us, and their success in shaping us to where we are today. The role fathers play in the development in their kids is unparalleled to any …show more content…
But he made me finish teaching me the importance of seeing a job, and that is where I attribute my work. All these lessons he has taught me other fathers do too. Each dad is unique and shapes his kid in different ways. I have so many memories with my dad and continue to make more. My dad works 6 days a week 12 hour a day. Because of this I do not get to spend as much time as I would like with him, but the time I do I hold with great value. My relationship with my dad revolved around our faith, hunting, family, and work on the ranch. Sunday is the Lord's day at my hosue, we don't get to sleep in, we wake up and head to San Roque for 8:00 mass. With my grandparents we fill up the whole pew. We even see Ms. Williams, Ms. Winnewwisser, and Sr. Helen there. I am grateful for the Catholic environment my dad has raised me in because of the values it has taught me and the tradition that follows. After mass we go as a family to breakfast, and then head home. My dad has cared for me so much, and I know as I move on to my next stage in life he will care just as much. It is commonly known that as you grow older your father becomes wiser. The more I think about this
Eulogy for Son William was a very special person. His good qualities are endless. Since he was just a child, I always remember William sticking up for the family. When his sister, Lisa, was a baby, William would sit outside her room with a mask and cape on, ready to rescue her in case she started crying. And, if William’s father or I were making too much noise, he was always quick to fly downstairs and tell us to keep quiet so as not to disturb his little sister.
I'd like to thank you all for the outpouring of support and condolences on the loss of my beautiful son Adam. My entire family appreciates it. This is my eulogy to Adam:
Good morning. Joe and I thank you all for coming to celebrate our son Mark's life.
On behalf of my family, I want to thank you all for joining us here today to celebrate John’s long and amazingly fruitful life—a life of love extended, commitments kept, and faith observed.
The way the father interact with the world; reacts to bad/good new, the way he treats people and the way he looks at the world guides the child to doing the same thing and reacting the same way. The way the fathers treat the child’s mother will be in turn how the child treats his partners in the future and the way the father treats his kids will be the way the child treats his future kids. Things like that are passed on by learning from their parents. By being a positive role model they are also serving as a guide to the outside world. They are teaching their kids how to maneuver their live in a positive
I was the youngest of three children by five years. My dad and I always enjoyed a strong bond. Simply put, we ‘got each other’. He offered me a great deal of encouragement, coupled with an equal amount of responsibility. We enjoyed engaging in intellectual, challenging and stimulating conversations. My friends and friends of my siblings loved to hang out at our house and enjoyed being around my dad. He cared a lot, about everyone, offered unbiased advice and was always supportive and encouraging. I believe he epitomized the autho...
Today, the most difficult day in my family’s life, we gather to say farewell to our son, brother, fiancé and friend. To those of you here and elsewhere who know Dylan you already are aware of the type of person he was and these words you will hear are already in your memory. To those who were not as fortunate, these words will give you a sense of the type of man he was and as an ideal for which we should strive. My son has been often described as a gentle soul. He was pure of heart and had great sensitivity for the world around him. He had a way with people that made them feel comfortable around him and infected others to gravitate toward him. Dylan exuded kindness and pulled generosity and altruism out from everyone he touched. He was everyone's best friend.
My father and mother have been the shining examples in my life about how if you want something you have to go out and get it. My dad has been a farmer his entire life and worked in a construction business he started for several years. He is now the Faculties Manager at Cornerstone Church and still farms several hundred acres. The most important thing I have ever learned in my life was that if you want something you have to go and get it. My dad has woken up at 4:56am every day for my entire life, no matter if he was sick or not. There are no sick days when you have livestock depending on you, or there are crops to tend. Watching his example for all these years has inspired me to be all I can be and do whatever it takes to succeed.
Before I begin I would like to thank all of you here on behalf of my mother, my brother and myself, for your efforts large and small to be here today, to help us mark my fathers passing.
My father was always there for me, whether I wanted him to be or not. Most of the time, as an adolescent trying to claim my independence, I saw this as a problem. Looking back I now realize it was a problem every child needs, having a loving father. As hard as I tried to fight it, my dad instilled in me the good values and work ethic to be an honest and responsible member of society. He taught me how to be a good husband. He taught me how to be a good father. He taught me how to be a man. It has been 18 years since my father’s death, and I am still learning from the memories I have of him.
A father is someone who protects, loves, supports and raises his children, whether they are biologically related or not. Every single person living on the Earth has a biological father. These biological fathers are supposed to take the responsibility of being a father because they did help bring a child into this world. One of the main responsibilities of a father is providing the child with the necessities of life, which include food, shelter, and clothes. Not only is a father responsible for the physical aspect but the emotional aspect as well. Children need to feel loved, cared for, and emotional support from their parents. A child needs to be reassured, so a father must show his affection, both physically and emotionally. A father needs to be involved in his children’s life. He needs to be a problem solver, playmate, provider, preparer, and he has to have principles. A father has to pr...
I know I haven’t known you for that long, but in these short 3 months one thing I’ve learned is what an amazing father you are. Even though I’m pretty sure you already know this. The love you have for your daughters is inspiring. I’m so very lucky and blessed to have met a man like you. One who understands that a father’s duty is to set a standard in which your daughters will judge all men against.
He has always been honest with me, has never asked more of me than he knows I could handle, respects my input, and does his best to provide for me and the rest of my family. I did not fully understand or appreciate it at the time, but my dad was establishing within me a strong foundation that carries over to the adult world I will soon be completely immersed in. Now that I am old enough to realize the importance of the qualities that my dad has tried so hard to instill within me, I am very glad that he began to foster them while I was at a young age.
I hope that when I grow old, you will be there for me. I wish you treat me the same way that I have always treated you and the way that I treated your grandparents: with love, respect and plenty of patience. Remember, eventually we all grow old and we will need someone to love us and take care of us. Hopefully, I set a good example for you to follow. My parents meant the world to me.
He has taught me so much in this life that I can’t count all the examples he has shown me. Every time I see my father the words that come to my mind are “The biggest example to follow is standing right in front of me.” The way he has provided for this family is the way I would like to provide for mine. Not by being a construction worker, but by being a computer engineer and making him proud. All he has given me is what I cherish and think about daily. I don’t know what I would be if the person that I call father wouldn’t be the perfect role
