The summary for this piece says it all; "Three generations of fathers and sons meet (in spirit) at a cemetary in Manila in search of healing". It's a poignant two-minute commentary and a straight first-person read by author Paul McDonald. It is an appropriate essay for stations to run in observance of Father's Day.
This short piece is very well written. It evokes the scene, a grandfather's grave in Manilla, and reminds us that every interaction - no matter how small - leaves its mark.
This would be a good drop-in for Father's Day.
