| I think, in many ways, we were very lucky that Dad would talk about his unique experiences in WW2. Many veterans don't talk about what they did or what happened to them. Dad did. I think he got us all interested in history as a result. Dad was also a very well known lawyer in Cleveland. I have so many memories of him. Classical music, dried apricots, certain smells, remind me of him. ================================= BELOW: Me and Dad, 1967, Boston MA. I have no idea what we were doing there!! I may have been going to Martha's Vineyard BELOW LEFT & CENTER: Me and Dad circa 1965. |
