Sixth Anniversary

Hi Everyone,

Today marks the sixth anniversary of Dad's passing. In light of the economic crisis, Dad is better off spending eternity with his heavenly family. If Dad were alive, I can just hear his rant about all the money and time spent trying to get elected President of the United States. He'd say, 'They are all a bunch of crooks." Dad would also ask, "How are they going to pay for all that stuff?"(campaign promises). Dad lost confidence in our federal government when Kennedy died. He believed in the conspiracy theory. He refused to vote after John Kennedy's assassination. I don't believe John Kennedy would agree with that decision. I don't. I think voting is a privilege. However,the right to vote or not vote is protected by the Constitution.

Dad was quite a character. He made a lot of bad decisions in his life. But he was a straight talker, unlike many of today's public figures. I respect him for offering his customers the best products available. He sold them at a fair price. Dad was a persistent and creative business man; someone who liked to work and who did not want to retire. May he rest in peace.
