Abstract

For as long as I can remember, people from all walks of life have had nice things to say about my dad. From the time I was a little girl, people told me how smart he was, how kind he was, and how much they appreciated knowing him. Now, half a century later—and since 2006 when he passed away at the age of 86—I hear people reminisce about him with an eternal deep respect and fondness. I enjoy hearing people’s reflections now as much as I did when he was alive.
