Let me first say that my dad was an amazing man. He was not perfect, but he was amazing nonetheless. Out of all of his children, he and I probably shared the most in common… our love for reading, technology, and science fiction… our appreciation for the analytical, educated debate, and bits of trivia… we could sit and talk for hours. On many occasions, we’d done just that! Let me tell you about the man he was…

He bought me a Commodore 64.

He’s the one who got me interested in reading SciFi books.

As a kid, he would often take me to get haircuts at Joe’s Barber Shop near my Uncle Bob's place.

He helped me put together my first science project in the 3rd grade.

He sat by my hospital bed when I was twelve after I’d been hit by a car.

He stood next to me at my High School graduation, beaming with joy and pride over his youngest son.

He mortgaged his house to cover the cost of sending me to college.

He helped me buy my first car (a vintage 1965 VW Beetle Auto-Stick).

He loved his grandchildren like there was no tomorrow.

He helped remodel my house in Lawndale.

He encouraged my music.

He was… the best.
