Work ethic. Good, old fashioned work ethic. He started working when he was 10 years old to support himself. And at age 65, he's taking it easy. I'd say he's more than deserved it. 50 + years of work.

My father taught me to be self sufficient and to make my own way in life.

To be a hard worker.
And to turn off the lights because electricity is expensive. [He forgot that lesson once he passed onto the other side because he would turn on the lights in my house - he wasn’t paying the bill then was he!]

Didn't have my father around as a young kid but I inherited his love of hunting and being in the wilderness.Also his way of being a free spirit,but I think he tried to conform to society more than me.

Was there a point Oz when your Dad entered into your life?
My dad is a man of faith. He taught us belief in God. This has been the gift that keeps on giving.

I only met him twice Wands but had a stepdad from 8,not the best lol.The second time I met my real father he was confronting mum about custody,I walked behind him and hit him with a golf club in the head,I was three ,no one threatens mum lol.It's still a family joke.I tried to contact him a few years ago but found he had passed at 59,he was only 18 when I was born.Doing this I found I had a half brother and sister,we have much in common.

You were brave even way back at three. Nice to know you found other family.
I learned only after my parents were both gone that my oldest Brother is my half Brother - at that exact moment I chose to love him twice as much.

I'm not really a brave person and rarely get angry but I am protective of people close to me.Nice to say that about your brother,in a way being related may come second to your bond and love.I know quite a few full brothers and sisters that really don't even like each other.
