Sherry McGinnis is a member of the Parent Advisory Board of The Partnership for a Drug-Free America. The loss of her youngest son prompted her to write three books on drugs and addiction. Online: theaddictionmonster.com This past Father’s Day Sherry wrote a tribute to the dads that have lost a son or a daughter; a loss that is all too often to the disease of addiction that haunts thousands of fathers and mothers across America “…The empty chair at the dinner table is a silent but painful reminder of his loss; the phone that doesn’t ring. Gone is the playful teasing between father and son or the special glow in a dad’s eye as he watches his daughter grow from daddy’s little girl into a young woman…” Read the rest of her tribute at this link: Father’s Day good time to honor men who have lost their children These links are provided by Sherry McGinnis.
