Great post. Your Dad did a good Job. My Dad is in his 80's and we see each other at least once a month and I call a couple of times a week, but we aren't overly close. I tried to change that with my son. We are very close despite him living in Montana and me in Iowa. We probably talk daily, or at least every other day. I can't wait to spend the weekend with him in Vegas. It sounds like this is what you had with your dad, priceless.
