Love to you, Sunny, as you remember, laugh, cry and deal with the hole that is there when a parent passes on.

  Someone is being kept quite busy "up there" - and no, I've not gone over to the dark side. I simply enjoy some of the old 2-story images on occasion and the death of my thoroughly agnostic, yet brilliant father who made sure I didn't really believe in it either is one of them.

   

  Dad, at 97 (after 70 years of marriage) finally let go around midnight last night. I re-read JWM's "The Time My Father Died." I can't remember if I'd shared it with Dad, but I know he would have gotten quite the bang out of the pine box story. He would have preferred a pine box as well, if we weren't allowed to simply roll him into a ditch and be done with it.

   

  I imagine few of you would have known him as he only came with Mom to one Summer program (might have been the big one in '84) and cheerfully did his duty setting the Great Hall for breakfast. He'd, on his own, read most of the "greats" of our history and maintained a disciplined, albeit rather stoic (or perhaps just west Texas stubborn) attitude throughout his life. I miss him and certainly celebrate all he passed on to me and our family.

   

  Blessings to Lynda and her family on a dad whose picture reminded me of mine and who I can imagine kicking up his heels with mine now in the "great beyond."

   

  Bye Dad.
