He was 6' , I'm 6'2". Mom is 6' though, so I'm sure that had a great deal to do with it.

Same here. Could have been worse I guess as my father's 4 brothers are 5'9 or shorter.

And actually I only just realized a few weeks ago that I'm very close to 6'. I stopped measuring myself sometime in college and figured that I was done growing. I was 5'10.75 and would round to 5'11. Now over 20 years later I find out that I must have grown a little more because I'm now 5'11.5. I could round to 6, but I'm too used to saying 5'11.

frick no. He's about 4 inches taller than me. I'll probably never be half the man he is as well.

I have an inch on him. Nothing to brag about. I hope my boy is a couple of inches taller than me.
