It is Sept. 5th
Duh. Way to state the obvious, huh?
What’s not so obvious is that today is the 15 year memorial of my father’s death. FIFTEEN years. That seems like such a long time. Every year I try to tell stories about him or at least tell a joke in his corny sense of humor way, just to keep the spirit alive, ya know?
He was a great man and, what little of him I do remember, his humor and his generousity are traits I like to think I can pass on. As an example, around Thanksgiving, he would fly down to the indian reservation in Taos, New Mexico every few years to deliver turkeys to the native americans. He was part of a few of those types of groups and always seemed to be doing something social. I guess I get that from him.
Anyway, just a quick shoutout to my daddy, may he rest in peace.

Your father would be very proud of you.
