I cried & cried, as I read after his death but many also made me laugh...his funny signatures..."Big Daddy"..."Irving"...just being silly.

I think it's wonderful that you are writing about their story. Does my heart good seeing that '49 Ford and that your dad always bought Ford. My father worked for Ford for 42 years and raised his family on it. I'm terrible about writing my thoughts like for a diary. I always abandoned any attempts! This blog is as close as I get to sharing some things about me.
