Personal Stories
My Dad
This is my Dad. I didn’t know him much as I was 7 years old when he died.
I remember his milatary funeral like it was yesterday and that’s 50 years ago. He was funny, drank a lot, I remember that too, but he was always liked. He was very loyal. He volunteered to go the Vietnam, part to sort himself out, part because he felt an obligation to do something. I miss him.
Your son…. Mark
