Father's Day 2016

In honor of my father (Daniel Henry McCauley) this 2016 Father's Day who is now on the other side of veil,  I thought I could share some tidbits about him on our family blog.  My father only had a 7th or 8th grade education, but he was one of the brightest people I have ever known, and he so valued education.  After I had graduated from college and was teaching in Salt Lake City, Utah, I would still go home to Graham, Washington in the summer.  One tradition my father and I had during these summer visits was for me to do as much I could on the daily newspaper crossword puzzle, and then he would finish it!  He was adamant about watching educational programs on TV and couldn't understand why I wasn't more interested (which I am now, probably because of his example!).  The day I graduated from BYU with my undergraduate degree, my dad asked me when I was going to get my master's.
