I remember your Dad as being quietly supportive to each of the children and their friends. As I remember "the early years" he always took Anne and her friends to each others house. Your Dad and Mom certainly raised a great family, and that's certainly the best tribute! My condolences to each of you. Thinking of you, Anne.
