Father’s Day had a special meaning this year for Moharrum “Mike” Gulkoparan.
The 39-year-old Turkish immigrant, who was only 13 when he lost his father, Veli Gulkoparan, to cancer at the age of 55, has fulfilled a wish his father had many years ago.
He wanted his then teenage son to one day follow family tradition and become a restaurant owner.
Gulkoparan, who came to the United States in 2001, is the owner and operator of Sweet Home Family Restaurant, one of Huber Heights’ newest eateries, located at 4480 Powell Road in Huber Heights’ Powell Plaza.
“I know he would be proud of me,” said Gulkoparan.
