My condolences to you and your family on your father's passing. My father served in WWII as a fireman in the coast gaurd. He received his degree in child psychologist and instead of going into private practice he opened our first preschool in 1952. We worked side by side everyday for over 25 years and after he passed at age 79 in 2005 my heart still aches everyday for him. May good bless you all.
