The DNA of Life- Passed from Father to Son
http://www.thednaoflife.com
This blog is about the lessons of life that my amazing father, Mike Dickerson, taught me. He was the greatest man I have ever known. He passed away so suddenly and unexpected. He was an amazing father, mentor, hero, and friend. I can only hope to be half the man he was. This site is dedicated to his memory.
The DNA of Life is all about the issues that shape our lives and relationships. Subjects include marriage, parenting, emotions, heartbreak, thoughts, and how we can improve our lives through sharing our experiences with each other.
About Father- Mike Dickerson
Mike never met a stranger. His smile was contagious. He just loved life. His was a faithful husband of 38 years, treating my mother like a queen their entire marriage. He worked very hard for his family by working 35 years for a great company, TD Williamson. I cannot summarize his courageous life in a paragraph…that is why this entire site is dedicated to his life…his story.
About Son- Matt Dickerson:
I am a Tulsa man that just loves life. I am a father of four children and have been married for nine years. Needless to say, I have had some very high mountaintop experiences and some very low valleys. I have always relied on the principles I have learned from others and the Bible to sustain me. I can only pray that my experiences can help someone that may be going through some of the same things.
