Your father sounds much like mine was; he had a heart of gold too. He was also a man of faith who did not fear death, but saw it as a passage to eternal life. You dedication poem is genuinely moving, Gary. Bless you for sharing it with us and I hope both of you have a wonderful Fathers' Day. Thanks for your comments on the ghost poem. I saw a ghost that others had also seen at my university. Best wishes, Carolyn
