We just found out about your father. We are so sorry. My Mom, Rita, was one of his nieces (Dorothy was her mom). I was so fortunate to be in touch with your dad the past 5-10 years. I started out asking genealogy questions and ended up getting to know a wonderful man. I loved hearing about his memories of your mom and how he was so proud of his family. I loved hearing about his adventures. He sure did know how to enjoy life. I will miss his Christmas note and will most certainly miss him. May God bless him.
