My father in law, no contest

Daily writing prompt
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?

I have been blessed to have in-laws who were two of my best friends. I don’t have any “evil” in-law jokes or stories.

My father in law, Sid, was an example of success. He served his country in the military. Although he never finished community college, he knew a little something about everything: history, home repairs, you name it. He worked his entire career with the MN Department of Transportation as a surveyor. He started a Baptist Church in 1973 with four other individuals in Minnesota. That church is still going strong today. He left behind an amazing legacy of faithfulness, love for his God, country and family.
