A spoken word by a grateful son.
First off Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful and devoted men who actually know how important it is for their children (especially a son) to have a male role model as much as they need a female one. My father Mitchell Rivers taught my brother Cameron and I a lot about not only how to be a man but also how to be a genuinely good person and a strong Christian with values, heart, intelligence and courage to go for your dreams no matter how hard it may be to get there. My father isn’t perfect he has his flaws and vulnerabilities like everyone else but his imperfect is better than perfect because his humanity makes him easier to relate and talk to rather than an almighty superman and I can learn from his mistakes as much as I learn from my own. All this to say, Happy Father’s Day, Dad.
