Editor’s Welcome
The heart of a father is the masterpiece of nature.
―Antoine François Prévost
The father figure is a quintessential family concept in any society: he is seen as a dependable man who protects, works and loves fiercely, leading his children to the right path with tough love and endless support. Any man who imparts unrequited affection, care and important teachings to someone has the right to be called a father: he might be our uncle, a brother, a stepfather or a grandfather.
Out and About STYLE Magazine would like to say our heartfelt and sincerest gratitude and greetings to the fathers in our lives. This Issue is most especially dedicated to our brave, strong and protective fathers!
