Happy Father’s Day To Oscar Gonzalez

"He works very hard, sometimes 15-hour days and he still finds the time to play catch or go to one of our games, recitals and performances."

In celebration of Father's Day on Sunday June 17, we asked Patch readers to write a letter to their father and let us deliver it. This is the Gonzalez kids' letter to their dad:

We are the Gonzalez kids, Vanessa, Marissa, Yassmin and Oscar Jr. We would like to share how amazing our dad is. Oscar Gonzalez, our dad, has always been a very hard working man. He works very hard, sometimes 15-hour days and he still finds the time to play catch or go to one of our games, recitals and performances.

He has always been loving and kind, a man of his word. Generosity and the desire to help people are his main attributes. Our dad never takes time out for himself. He prefers to focus on everyone else or work. I rarely see him doing something for himself.

Today I would like to take a moment and tell him just how wonderful we think he is. Dad: We love you and thank the Lord for blessing us with you.

Have a wonderful Father's Day!

—Jen and the Gonzalez kids
