It's not necessarily a lie, so much as it's how much I've not told you.
Pomona was, undeniably, a good teacher, and if anyone asks, I say that my favorite professors were you and her. But Pomona only had influence over a tiny portion of my life. You were probably as close to a father as I've ever had. I spent as much time in your office as I did in the greenhouses, probably, the year you were at Hogwarts. And after you were sacked, I wrote to you, and you always wrote back. Every single letter, up through July before my last year, you replied to.
