Dearest Loretta, I was so sorry to hear about your Dad. I wish I had known as I would have flown down for the funeral (I've been offline forever!). Please know that I'm thinking of you and your family during this time.
Although I only saw your Dad a few times and it was many years ago, I remember him well. He had a great sense of humor and made us laugh - and his Rhode Island accent always brought me right back to the east coast - all the way from Sacramento.
Much love, Barb
