I look back fondly on those high school days in Hometown and the hospitality extended by the Featherstone family. Mr. Featherstone had a fine sense of humor, was always encouraging, and was very tolerant of his son's friends regularly invading their home.

The following prayer to St. Joseph has been a guidepost for my life thanks to my father:
"Hail, Dear Spouse of Mary mild,
Tender Guardian of her Child,
Joseph, best of Teachers, Hail!
This is true mainly because dad is such a great teacher. "
Dad was indeed a great life teacher for me.
His son Don.
