    By Margaret Walton • June 10, 2008 8:50 pm

    I’ve been thinking a lot during the past few days about gifts I’d like to give my Dad for Father’s Day.
    Most of all, however, I wish I could give my Dad the one thing I know would make him happier than anything else, the one thing that could bring back that gleam in his eye and make him forget that he’s old and feeble now.
    I wish I had the power to give him back my Mom, Joetta, the love of his life for more than 70 years.

    Whidbey Island has given a local singer her voice back.
    Freeland resident Gale Dubrow has been singing for as long as she can remember.
    “There was always music in our house and I remember both my mother and father singing often,” Dubrow said.
    And although she sang in high school musicals, in choirs and even started as a music major her first year in college, Dubrow got sidetracked for a time away from singing.
    After journeying down several roads in life that included college, teaching, becoming a wife, mother, professional fine artist and a grandmother, Dubrow has finally realized one of her dreams. She has made her first record.
