Letter to the editor in light of Father's Day
June 14, 2010 -- As Father's Day approaches, I reflect on my role as both a son and a single father. On January 9, 1992, I lost my father to a rare blood disease at the age of 48. I was 24 years old, at the time this was the most emotionally painful event to have occurred in my life.
