On this day in 1932, the greatest man I have ever known was was born.

1. We had the same dad! Wait, is that you, Steve? Dad's birthday was in 1932 - but in April! ...

... and he was a banker with three step-kids and gave us three, three new brothers. Dad was amazing. How he kept us from knowing how close it was to the line while he and mom were working in the bank branches, how he knew almost everything when it came to fixing and reusing ...

Been good remembering with you, even if you aren't Steve (another good man himself - like you, too).

Thank-you so much for telling me about your dad. I am fortunate, my dad is still fixing things, I think I'll call him in a couple of hours.
