Transcript:

Sometimes my father started to cry. Then he would say, “Oh, my children, I will say to you, I have the best wife, which God gave me in my life, this is your mother.” He said this when they were already old. When we were little, he did not say it to us because we did not understand, but when we were already adults, he said this to us. This is a beautiful witness also for Catholic husbands. I would say, please show your children that you love and respect your wife. This is so important in a family.
