Happpy Father's Day







When I think of you, Dad,
I think of a man
who fixed things,
the bicycles and broken hearts...
who hugged me
and took time
to give me piggyback rides...
and who held me
on his shoulders
to better see parades
or just the world around me.





When I think of you,
I know that behind
all those little things
was a great love.
And I just want to thank you for being
the dad you were
the dad you still are in my heart.
I miss you!





After 35 years of working for Consumers Power, he only had a few years to enjoy retirement. Eugene M. Williams passed away Feb. 1994 from cancer and is greatly missed by family and friends. He was a Marine in the battles of the South Pacific, WWII and severed state-side during Korea. He will allways be my hero.

Father's Day poem from son to dad



Dear Daddy,
When you found out
I was coming
You were shocked, surprised
And a bit queasy in the tummy.

When you found out
I had a little problem
You were worried and concerned
And wanted to solve ‘em.

When you were there
and I arrived
You were happy and scared
Did you cry?

When you were there
And held me for the first time
You were warm and kind
I saw your eyes shine.

When you held my hand
I gripped you tight
To remind you of my existence
And ask you to be my light.

When you held my hand
Standing by my side
As I took my first steps
You prodded me with gentleness and pride.

Now as I reach out to you
When no one else can see
I look into your heart
Searching for patience for me.

Now as I reach out to you
Declaring our bond
I love you unconditionally!
From your youngest son.

Veronica Towers - Only In Her Dreams


Marcus Derning, Duke of Allendale and former Captain in the 73rd Foot Brigade owes his life to the timely intervention of Sergeant Montague--an intervention which cost the man his life. What better way to honor the man's memory but by marrying his daughter--if she would only have him? Sarah knows that duty and honor are poor substitutes for love. A captain can not marry the daughter of a common soldier. Much less a common soldier's daughter marry a Duke. Even deep in her heart where her irrational hopes linger, she knows the only way she could ever be with Marcus is Only in Her Dreams.
