Thanks De.
Just got back and we spent time talking with Paul's wife and only daughter. We met the daughter's (Paula) three boys who are all in their late teens and and one made it to 21.
Her mother and her are very close. I invited her to purchase the house next door to us which has been completely remodeled and sell that enormous two story home the bought when the two kids were still at home.
If she did not want to buy it I told her I would and she could just rent for the rest of her life.
Small single floor 2 bedroom brick ranch completely renovated, with new roof and interior and flooring.
I may buy it anyway just for the property and space.
Paul was a pilot for the Air Force in Vietnam. He became an executive for IBM which is in downtown Cincinnati.
He brought home and showed me the first computer they came out with.
He was a wonderful dad to his children and his wife Sheila whom we are still good friends with and invited her over to have a large cookout here with us and her neighbors who lived next to her on both sides.
It would be a great time as that spans many years..
So we'll see. I would really like to do that.. Maybe send in an order to Omaha Steaks for the event..
He died peacefully in his sleep.
So I'll catch you all later.
