Late Sunday
I should be in bed but I want to write down some thoughts. This last week has not been an easy week. Last Monday my dad died. He was 86 years old and a product of the depression years. I don't think that there was much peace in his life, he was a driven man ..... he did not want his family to ever suffer the poverty that he went through as a child. So he worked every chance that he got. As a result he was tired a lot of the time and did not have a lot of time to spent with the family. Although as we got older it was a treat to go to work with him, always fun. Looking back my conclusion is that he was a good man, who gave his all to his family and his way to show how he loved was to give his labour. The other great value that he exhibited towards his children was to accept who we were and we were at, he was very tolerate towards his children and grandchildren. We will miss him but at least now he is with mum who he loved deeply.
Over the next few weeks I would like to do some layouts of him.
