The Dad Who Fathered Me

In an age when so many children have been robbed of the opportunity to be fathered by dads who can be looked upon as heroes, The Dad Who Fathered Me, presents cherished memories of a dad who successfully fathered his nine children. It reveals the multiple roles played by a father as seen by one of his daughters. In this book, Albert Benjamin is viewed first, as a dad who provided the genetic ingredients for life; then as an ever-present father who lived and modeled what it takes to be a hero to his children. His many exemplary moments were captured through his scriptural teachings, the empathy he showed for others, his service to his community, providing for his family and others, his unfailing love to his wife and his dedication to his father. Memories shared in this book can serve to help absentee fathers understand the importance of giving their children the gift of a hero. Fathers are specially created beings who are appointed to accomplish a task that can set the tone for a successful and wholesome life for their children and generations to come. Dr. Benjamin-Lambert believes that a father's lasting impact can only be accessed through the deeds and truths he practices and lives by. Through an examination of what a man believes and the life he has lived based on those beliefs, his children are able to realize the gift of his legacy.
