Your book brought back great memories of my grandfather. One quick story my grandfather told us all. He would sit us all down one on one on our 16th birthday’s and tell us to, “Enjoy today, today is the smartest you will ever be. From here on out for the rest of your life, you will realize how much you really don’t know.

Bill, I am so glad you wrote this for all to read. Dad Always Said made me recognize that I have and do honor my father to the best of my ability. However you showed me there is always more I can do, especially while they are alive. I wish I had met your dad, you wrote about him with pride. If any father reads anything close to that, they would tear their shirt off and show the big S over their chest. I feel he is beaming proud. What a great thing to do, a son to a father. All fathers deserve what you did. Thank you Bill!

Thank you, Bill, for the gift of your incredible book, Dad Always Said. I am loving reading it and it is no wonder he raised such an awesome son as you are. My dad was a part of that Great Generation and so much of what you share brings back so many memories. Doing what was right always prevailed with my Dad. Thank you again
