| __________________________________________________ May 27 2003 - Vol. 4 No. 27a __________________________________________________ REMEMBER YOUR FATHER ON FATHER'S DAY ~ SUNDAY JUNE 15TH I remember my father. He passed away some 8-9 years ago. Dad was not an angler. At least I don't remember him going fishing by himself or with his friends. However Dad did take my brother and I fishing 5-6 times a year during our early childhood. Some dads may give their children a car when they are of driving age, a college education when they are of learning age, get them their first real job when they are of working age, or finance a starter house for the kids when they are of marrying age, or some similar gift of life and love from a father, each in his own way, to his children. I remember my father most for giving the greatest gift of all to me - my lifelong love for fishing. Even though Dad was not an angler, he exposed my brother and me to fishing in case it was something we would like. Even though it wasn't Dad's hobby, it turned out to be mine. Thanks, Dad. __________________________________________________ NEW PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT ~ YAMAMOTO SENKO GIFT KITS Celebrate Father's Day on Sunday, June 15, 2003.
