Meet one of our Super Dads, Philip Ferrara!
Where do you work and what do you do for a living?
I own LIBERTYAIR Air Conditioning and Heating and DARTBID (HVAC software).
Name and ages of kiddos?
Sable (17), Ruby Simone (15), Joel (13), James (8)
If you could be any superhero, who would it be and why?
I would be Captain America because he is patriotic and pro-America.
What is your favorite part of being a dad?
Each child is an immense gift, and I most enjoy each of my children’s unique personalities.
If you could give two pieces of advice to a new dad, what would it be?
1. Enjoy the heck out of your children at every opportunity because your time with them as they grow up under your roof is fleeting.
2. Choose your battles.
What is the hardest part of being a dad?
Traveling for work and missing out on family dinners, sometimes their ball games.
What do you hope your children learn most from you?
1. Faith and hope in Jesu sChrist (and eternity.)
2. It’s my hope that they learn humility; i.e., that individually we are a very small part of this world yet we can contribute greatly to the needs of others.
3. I also hope they place great value on family — both the familyunitandtheimportance of a local church family.
Share a Dad fails moment you learned from and laughed about
With two sons, I realized early on (as soon as my sons could speak) that whatever “boy jokes” we discuss at home will be repeated in public!
