Daddy

I just talked to Mom on the phone.  Today our Daddy has been gone for thirty years.  I have always had a hard time remembering  if it was  was the tenth or eleventh that he died.  Now I know why.  Mama told me that all of the official papers say it was the eleventh, after midnight, but Mom says that she knows that she lost him on the tenth. I got the phone call at 2:30 a.m. and Mom asked if she could speak to Mark, so that he could hold me while he told me.  And he did.
