All I knew is that bringing up his name always elicited sadness. So.....it was rarely discussed. I now have a fairly good understanding of what death can bring to a family (early in the relationship). I have watched so many families with fathers and just wondered "what would that be like". Reading your story about Davie saddens me also because, just like Jim's family the parents doubted on everyone else family members and not their won. Life can be a real kicker.fromsophiesviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532257840856313054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-41878056357249847652017-08-02T12:03:18.860+02:002017-08-02T12:03:18.860+02:00Rozzie:

At a restaurant one night with a group of friends a woman tried to pick him up at the bar (my mother was nearby and saw it all). She posed and asked for a light. He picked up a book of matches from a basket on the bar, smiled broadly, and gave her the book. My mother said it was then she realized she had nothing to worry about.Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2367834014770669778.post-85294252999807768892017-08-02T10:59:02.638+02:002017-08-02T10:59:02.638+02:00anne marie:
