through the depression, was a farmer and it was a 7/24 job at times. He loved the earth, it returned him the fruits, he knew how to grow many things. He loved his tractor and I can still hear the tractor running in the background in my mind. My parents gave me birth and wings, I will every be grateful. I was happy he was my father, my Daddy, and most of all he lived long enough we became very good friends. He passed away in 1993 and I am blessed by having him in my life.
