Stephen Boodoo, a proud father of two daughters—seven-year-old Skylar and four-year-old Seanna—is a welding inspector from Penal. He shared, “Father’s Day means having two beautiful daughters and waking up every day to them saying, ‘Love you, Daddy.’” “Becoming a father changed my life in many ways. With fatherhood came greater responsibility—and even greater love. The best part of having two girls is the constant love and kisses I get every single day.”
