Remembering your dad this Father’s Day

My huge take away from Tuesday’s show didn’t happen on the air. It happened during a not so beautiful part of the program.

I love our conversations with our guests regarding their dads. Tom Candiotti joined us to talk D-Backs. Before our conversation, we talked to him off-air when he told us about his father’s death when Tom was 17. Wolf mentioned his father passed when Wolf was 19. Tom said, “It forces you to grow up fast.”

I’m 41. Although I’m nervous about my father dying from a sudden heart attack, I’m so blessed to have had him here for my whole life to this point. Tom is so right about his comment. So many times I came into a situation unprepared only to find my father there to help cover me.

From me to all of you whose father is alive: Call him this week.
