My dad always believed in me, even in times when I wasn’t necessarily sure that I believed in myself.
All these conversations I have now with my two sons and my daughter now, I’m not sure they quite existed back in 1979 and 80 in Fred Douglas Blankenship Jr.’s house. I’m not sure they did.
There was a big portion of my life that, when it came to family and growth, where I didn’t have the chance to have my dad be the sounding board.
