In remembrance of my dad’s passing two years ago, I thought about posting a photo of something that once belonged to him, but is now in my possession. The possibilities were endless…a fleece cap I gave him for Christmas one year, which he actually wore; leather boots he’s had for as long as I can remember and are still in excellent condition thanks to his fastidious nature; a monogrammed cigarette lighter, which contributed to his demise; a small folding magnifying glass he used in his drafting work; bolo ties that accessorized his square dancing outfits; etc., etc., etc. Instead, though, I’ve decided to post this video…again. Apologies to my close friends (you know who you are) who have seen this before, although you might like to listen…again.
