My Dad - part II


This is the only picture I have on my computer right now of my dad. This picture was taken at Kt's spring ballet recital. I'm guessing you know which one my dad is!! He's the glowing grandfather. Not that they both aren't, but he was particularly drawn to his granddaughters. This picture was taken weeks before he became violently ill, which we later found to be Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. Sadly, Em's only memory of my dad is visiting him in the hospital. That would have been the week before he died. She had just turned two. It's amazing she even remembers that.

Here's a funny - the last thing my dad said to me coherently was, "Keep busy." I guess I listened to him!
