Polish term or phrase: szanuj ojcai i matke i przyjaciot i swoja ojczyzne
This was written by my father on the back of a photograph he gave me. He grew up speaking Polish in his family but never formally learned to read or write in Polish. His parents immigrated from Poland to the USA. My dad was born in the USA. After this Polish phrase, my dad wrote in English "more than a friend... you are a part of me and my life..."
