I spent the last week in Florida with my mother, hoping to keep her spirits up on the 1 year anniversary of my father’s death.  We spent a good deal of time reminiscing about him – his unapologetically unique and authentic self, his attributes as well as his faults.  She and I cried a little, … Continue reading →
