not a dry eye over here. PJ . the take away is how much you favor your mama and how a mind made up is a strong ass mind . it seems you got the best of both your parents.

Hey PJ, what a good story with a happy ending. You went through such terrible times in your life. I hope you're already busy writing some true-life novels and selling them on KDP and other marketplaces.

I have such great respect for you. I can still hear Frank's voice in my head. I was afraid of him because he was always yelling at the kids when we were there. But I also remember him laughing with my Dad! He seemed to be such a conflicted person.

When you wrote that he married in secret after your Mom died, it struck me because Dad did as well when my Mom passed! Men, the "stronger" see! Only in stature!

I'll say it again, I have great respect for you. I love you.
