BIG THANKS to all who visit my Dad here.
"Hank" was a WW2 Veteran
Dad grew up in very hard times, but always made the best of everything until the day he died. His mother died when he was very young and he and his brother Norbert were raised mostly by their Grandparents.
Dad worked for the Michigan Bell Telephone Company for 41 years. He had eight children and was married to my mother for over 50 years.
Dad died from a heart attack. He had been watching a lot of the media coverage of the the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
When I see a bird in my yard, I think of him. He knew all about nature and he meant the world to me.
I miss talking to him about ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.
