My father led a full life. He graduated HS and had worked since he was 14. Pop retired at 62 making 200k a year in 1988. He always wanted to live on a river so he bought property years before. Paid cash for his house. Once my wife and daughter were going to help my mother shampoo carpet. Daughter didn't want to stop because they had company. My wife said they don't have company, these are Pops vehicles.lol.
Pop lived to be 88. Outlived all his friends. This last year was a sad one. Dementia really sucks you know. My father was always the boss of the family. Now I had to be the boss. He got to be like a big baby. Such a shame, such a smart man.
