Actually, I had a good dad but I lost him in my junior year of HS when he died at the age of 49. Unlike some here, I never felt the lack of a father figure because my dad was there when I was growing up. But I sure did miss him later, at those important times of my life that I would have loved to share with him.

If your guy's from NC, he probably is familiar with Cheer Wine. I lost a friend in VN who was from Salisbury, and I was introduced to Cheer Wine when I visited his brother there. NC has every right to be proud of their local soft drink. It's great!
