We are sad to say goodbye to our parents. They had hope. Faith. Fierce loyalty to each other and to us. Life wasn't perfect - no life is, but they lived it as best they could, giving of themselves and sharing their gifts with their family and friends. We miss you, mom and dad. Every day.
In 1959 my girlfriend and I traveled to the Bay Area from our small town in the desert, Mojave. Your dad and his friend took us to a wonderful restaurant on the bay and introduced me to lobster for lunch and then took us up the coast sight-seeing. I will never forget the grand time we had and the great hospitality and humor your dad provided that glorious day.
