My father taught me how to play chess when I was about 6 or 7. I loved the game and I loved playing with him. I always felt like I was playing against an equally skilled player who took the game as seriously as I did. During our games, he never made me feel like a kid, or a girl, or a beginner. He made me feel like a person.
He is the best man I’ve ever known. Happy Father’s Day, dad.
