My Dad .... a good read

I had a little trouble with it, go to the PDF on the left and that opens it up for easy readability, you can make the type larger also. I got started reading it, almost read the whole thing. It really is quite good, he was well educated and articulate. It is well worth your time to read it ....................

Prior to my Dad passing away, we sat down and penned some of his memories of his like that I knew would be gone, once he passed. He was in a the time.nursing home at 

He grew up on a farm near Marion, Indiana, was in WWI, scraped through pre med and med school, the latter with a wife and a son, my brother. They lived on neck bones and what they could afford to purchase with very meager earnings. His Mother passed when he was quite young and he basically was raised by his sisters and older brothers.

He was dedicated to his profession, Medicine. He was confident he had a "guardian angel" looking out for him, and relates times that they appeared in his life.

It is a good read ..............
